Crispr's Next Big Debate

6/6/2017

This Wired article discusses the potential risks and limitations of using the gene-editing tool called CRISPR-Cas9. It highlights a study which found that the CRISPR system, while highly effective in making intentional changes to the DNA, can also lead to unexpected mutations elsewhere in the genome. The article explores the concerns raised by the study's findings and the need for further research to ensure the safety and accuracy of CRISPR as a gene-editing tool. It emphasizes the importance of careful consideration and regulation of CRISPR technology to avoid unintended consequences and potential harm.
