Modern gene editing technologies continue to transform biological research and push the boundaries of what is possible in and out of the lab. This free-to-attend event will provide industry and academic researchers with a platform to discuss some of the most exciting ways gene editing technologies are being deployed to address real-world challenges in areas spanning human health, agriculture, and climate change.
This online symposium will cover:- CRISPR-Cas9 editing
- Single-cell RNA sequencing
- Genome editing and haploid induction of crop breeding
- Clinical development of gene editing for solid tumors
- Regenerative medicine
- Human-animal genomic bonds
