Summary: ״The CRISPR Conundrum״
“The CRISPR Conundrum” (2016) by Mary Bates, describes “CRISPR”- clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats, which is a new revolutionary technology in genetic engineering. It is a kind of molecular scissors that can be programmed to snip specific bits of DNA. The article talks about the advantages of CRISPR, yet it describes CRISPR’s disadvantages as well.
On the one hand, CRISPR is a cheap and precise technique to edit the DNA of animals, plants and even humans. this technique is based on the ability of viruses to immunize them self and transfer that part of the DNA to the DNA of other creatures. Using CRISPER can be a solution for many problems in healthcare, in the food industry, and much
