Dr. Adriano Flora, an expert in the field of murine genetic design, penned this article in DDNews:
"CRISPR/Cas9 is a gene-editing technology based on the ability of introducing a double-strand break in selected regions of the genome and exploiting the DNA repair systems to modify the targeted sequence. By introducing the genetic modification directly in embryos and bypassing the embryonic stem (ES) cell manipulation steps, CRISPR/Cas9 represents a faster and cheaper way to provide researchers with the in-vivo models they need."
