Author
Summary, in English
With the recent breakthroughs in genomics and advances in genome-editing techniques, most notably the discovery of the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‑associated protein 9 (Cas9), the matter of genome editing and health innovation has become of particular importance in society. New genome-editing techniques hold considerable potential to enhance personalized medicine and deliver cures to conditions and diseases that currently cannot be tackled. However, considerable work remains to be done in order to realize this potential.
