Bringing Precision to CRISPR-Based Genome Editing

from RARECast

CRISPR genome editing has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of diseases, but the imprecision of its editing abilities has limited its value. Emendo Biotherapeutics argues that rather than trying to make every disease fit into the standards CRISPR model, the answer lies in making CRISPR fit each disease. We spoke to Rafi Emmanuel, executive vice president of research and development for Emendo Biotherapeutics, about the limits of CRISPR today, the company’s experimental program in severe congenital neutropenia, and how the company is engineering CRISPR to optimize it and make it activity precise.
