Gene editing is a precise technology used to add, remove or alter specific DNA sections. It involves making cuts to DNA at the specific spot where it is malfunctioning. By disrupting unwanted sequence elements or by copying and pasting in new sequences to fix faulty sequences, gene editing can lead to permanent genetic changes. Cells can function normally and reverse disease processes. (This video was created in collaboration with students and instructors from the College of Art and Design at Lesley University.)
