CRISPR-Cas9: Safeguarding Gene Drives
Tags: Gene drive mechanisms, Gene drive synthetic, Replicator/site directed nuclease, Risk and safetyHarvard University, 2015.
In this animation, learn how effective safeguarding mechanisms developed at the Wyss Institute and Harvard Medical School can be applied to ensure gene drive research is done responsibly in the laboratory. These safeguards enable responsible scientific investigation into how gene drives could one day be leveraged for the greater good of human health, agriculture, and the environment.
