  • Rupesh Mishra
    From the Stanford webinar, CRISPR: 10 Years of Genome Editing and More, I learned how CRISPR has transformed genome editing by allowing scientists to modify DNA with greater accuracy and efficiency. I gained an understanding of how this technology is being used to develop treatments for genetic disorders, improve agricultural crops, and support biomedical research. I also learned about newer gene-editing techniques that increase precision and reduce unintended changes. Most importantly, I understood that while CRISPR offers tremendous potential, its use must be guided by ethical principles, safety standards, and responsible regulation to ensure that its benefits are shared fairly and used for the greater good.
