Gene Editing with CRISPR (Adult class, ages 14 and up)

CRISPR/Cas9 technology has revolutionized science since its first published use in non-bacterial cells in 2013. Winning the 2020 Nobel Prize in chemistry, CRISPR is a versatile tool that can be used in countless ways to further discovery including: inactivating mutant disease-causing genes, activating protein pathways, labeling proteins or cells, or for cancer therapy. This course will cover the molecular mechanisms of how the CRISPR/Cas9 system works, discuss current and future applications of the technology, and give hands-on experience in implementing CRISPR technology in the lab.
