Faculty First Year Seminars 191BIO11 - Genetic Engineering - CRISPR

This first year seminar will explore the topic of CRISPR, a relatively new gene editing tool. With CRISPR comes the potential for great strides in medicine such as gene therapy, as well as potential ethical concerns such as with the creation of gene edited human beings. We will explore the science of ?how? and ?what? CRISPR can do as well as the ethics associated with whether we ?should? utilize CRISPR in certain scenarios.
