AUSTIN, Texas, March 3 (TNSJou) -- The University of Texas issued the following news release on March 2, 2022:
One of the grand challenges with using CRISPR-based gene editing on humans is that the molecular machinery sometimes makes changes to the wrong section of a host's genome, creating the possibility that an attempt to repair a genetic mutation in one spot in the genome could accidentally create a dangerous new mutation in another.
But now, scientists at The . . .
