CRISPR-driven genome editing can be used to create treatments for rare diseases. In this post we look at how a treatment for sickle cell disease is changing lives of patients.

Next generation therapies are here and we can cure more diseases than we ever thought possible. Patients with rare genetic diseases, once incurable, can get a treatment that changes their life. That said these treatments come with some risks, and high price tags.
