Gene Editing for Good
How CRISPR Could Transform Global Development
Foreign Affairs, 2018
Sobre o que é?
Gene editing could help the world tackle some of its greatest challenges.
Recommendation
CRISPR gene-editing technology has taken the scientific world by storm. Using this technology, which allows scientists to insert, modify or delete genes in an organism, is not a risk-free endeavor. Yet according to Microsoft founder and philanthropist Bill Gates, failing to take advantage of gene editing’s great potential to help the world’s poorest people would be a “tragedy.” Writing in Foreign Affairs, Gates makes a case for using CRISPR and other gene-editing techniques on a global scale to promote food security and fight disease.
