Course Description

In this time, our time, as we witness the rapid evolution of science and technology, it should come as no surprise that there are those among us who are swiftly closing the gap between reality and what could once only be imagined. This transformation is most prevalent in the field of molecular genetics, where the ability to manipulate each gene is now commonplace. This ability has a wide range of applications and is leading to promising new medical therapies, but is also pushing ethical boundaries further than ever before. Join us to learn the science underlying the Noble Prize-winning technology, CRISPR Cas 9 gene editing, why it’s such a revolutionary technology, its promise, and its peril.
