CRISPR-Cas9 is more than just a buzzword—it's a revolutionary tool redefining how we treat diseases, enhance agriculture, and even rethink the ethics of genetics. From curing genetic disorders like sickle cell anemia to creating drought-resistant crops, the possibilities are endless.

As we enter 2025, the potential for CRISPR to reshape our world has never been greater. Read the full article here: https://learningbreeze.com/biology/crispr-cas9-is-transforming-the-future-of-gene-editing/

Everybody give a little clap for Theresa Gaffney's brilliant headline in Morning Rounds today.

Today's edition is a can't-miss:

- the NIH is resisting tyranny using bumper stickers & printouts taped to bathroom stalls (complete with a picture)

- the CRISPR babies scientist is posting Mean Girls-inspired memes (that are, honestly, fire)

They Didn't Make Dire Wolves, They Made Something…Else

I feel like this video is an important one to share. I'm glad he also shed some light on the importance of publicly funded research, people don't seem to realize just how much of the science that comes out of private companies are built on studies from academia.

""Heritable polygenic editing: the next frontier in genomic medicine?” this week (January 8, 2025) in Nature. That this has met with barely a whimper on social media is astonishing, so I feel the need to comment. "

So begins an incredible summary of the modern fallacy of eugenics by Greg Gibson

Muy recomendable escuchar a @jmmulet @ibmcp comparecer en el Senado ante la Comisión de Agricultura, Ganadería y Alimentación, explicando a políticos las #NGTs y las nuevas plantas que pueden obtenerse con #CRISPR que siguen todavía bloqueadas en Europa.

"Vitellotag" - looks like a potentially transformative method to deliver CRISPR products into difficult oocytes (!), yet I can't find any comments on social media. Anyone tried it?

Mañana martes 1 de abril al mediodía estaré en la universidad @uchceu en Alfara del Patriarca (Valencia) hablando de #CRISPR y las aplicaciones de la edición genética en biomedicina, con una clase para alumnos y alumnas del grado de Medicina

Using #CRISPR/Cas9 to genetically modify cells to produce extracellular matrices with altered compositions.
