CRISPR: Las tijeras genéticas que están transformando la biología moderna
Palabras clave:
Tijeras genéticas, ADN, Terapia genética, Ética
Resumen
El texto de presentación del Número 14 de la Revista Latinoamericana de Difusión Científica describe la herramienta CRISPR,capaz de editar genes con una precisión sin precedentes. Un avance que abre nuevas posibilidades para la salud y el medio ambiente, pero que también invita a reflexionar sobre su alcance.
