Wonder of CRISPR technology

CRISPR technology, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential for treating diseases, developing new crops, and understanding the human genome, offering precise and efficient methods to modify genetic material.

CRISPR stands for "Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats" and is a naturally occurring bacterial immune system that scientists have adapted for gene editing.

It allows researchers to precisely target and modify specific DNA sequences, enabling the correction of genetic defects, the development of disease models, and the creation of new crop varieties.

CRISPR is also being explored for cancer treatment, including targeting cancer-causing viruses and modifying cancer cells.
