CRISPR

Researchers are using CRISPR gene editing to restore function of the mutant protein that causes Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a genetic disease that causes muscle degeneration.

An engineer turned biology researcher co-founded a bio-pharma start-up with the goal of using CRISPR to reverse the mutation causing the degenerative muscle disorder Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
