CRISPR may revolutionize how we tackle some of the world’s biggest problems, like cancer, food shortages, and organ transplant needs.
Every industry can harness CRISPR as a tool: it can create new drug therapies for human diseases, help farmers grow pathogen-resistant crops, create new species of plants and animals — and maybe even bring back old ones.
CRISPR’s cheap price tag and flexibility allows accurate and fast identification of potential gene targets for efficient pre-clinical testing.
