2015 Genome Editing and CRISPR Technology The research surround genome editing is fairly recent but has been of great scientific discovery by correcting faulty genetic diseases. With the contemporary research regarding genome editing or genetically altering the genes of an embryo, the types of sources that embodied this research was minimal yet paramount. The amount of information gathered from online libraries and texts attained from the library the technology used for genome editing CRISPR/Cas9
Editing Human Genome The last few decades, technology have made so much progress that today humans are allowed to do things that never even crossed their mind, modifying the plants and animals and all that progress is for the benefit of people. Technology has made a great impact in business, communication, education, healthcare, etc. Today in the healthcare, medical research has become extremely advanced, and every disease seemingly has a cure or at least a prevention; it has advanced with the discovery

long as DNA has been used for storing the information for life, genes have controlled the development and evolution of all living things on Earth. Today genetics influences aspects of our behavior and health, and will continue to be the focus of biological research in the near future. Aside from our health, genes have control over our entire perception of reality. This sobering fact, along with the sheer ubiquitous nature of genes in all living things, has only recently been elucidated. Since Mendel
After years of work, Dr. Smith, has successfully edited the human genome. Shortly after, he began to marvel at the possibilities he unlocked, but also begged the question of the possible consequences he created from this achievement which would affect the impending future. He worried as to how the public would react to his life work. The growing potential of gene editing is sweeping the US, filled with both overwhelming hope as well as fear. This is a bridge which must be crossed to achieve trust
Human gene editing, the highly sensitive and controversial practice in the medical world, has been debated over its ethics during its time and recently during the international summit in Washington DC. Genome editing is a form of genetic engineering in which DNA is inserted, deleted or replaced in the genome of an organism, such as a human, using engineered nucleases, or "molecular scissors." Gene editing on human embryo is extremely risky, medically unnecessary in most aspects, and profoundly damaging
Technological and medical advances are occurring at a rapid pace. Genetic engineering is one of the up-and-coming technologies that arouses passions, both in favor of and against the practice. While food has been genetically altered for many years, technology is now approaching the point where human DNA can be altered as well, which has required the implementation of new healthcare policies and ethical guidelines. What is Genetic Engineering? According to yourgenome.com, a general description
