This video produced by STAT, an e-news site focusing on health and medicine. This video simply illustrates what geneticists mean by gene drive, and how homing-based gene drive work. Note: The video does not indicate that there are other mechanisms of gene drive that work differently from the cut-and-paste mechanism used as an example. These other gene drives result in similar genetic outcomes.
