RNA Therapeutics and DNA Editing | Jennifer Doudna | World Economic Forum (2015)
5:00 "We think within the not too distance future, it will be possible to actually use this technology to make changes in humans so that we can actually cure diseases that have genetic causes, like cystic fibrosis and other such disorders."
I wonder what more applications gene editing can be used for and that they have been able to achieve since this presentation was made in 2015.
Of course, if this kind of technology were ever used in humans, all the required safety tests with long-term follow-up would be done, right?
And those receiving the therapy would get fully informed consent and no coercion whatsoever, right?
