RE: CRISPR Has Successfully Been Used To Edit Genes In Normal HUMAN Embryos
Yeah, progress has been really quick. It's been around for more than 2 years, the term CRISPR was coined in 2002, and the use of cas9 as a gene editing agent was first reported in 2011.
The cas9 gene editing was the part I heard a couple years ago in relation to CRISPR. I really liked genetics when I studied biology back in college. You put together a very solid article here.
Thanks, just trying to do my part keeping people up to date with the general knowledge to make sense out of new science.
