Doudna stated,
I think in the next five years the most profound thing we’ll see in terms of CRISPR’s effects on people’s everyday lives will be in the agricultural sector, which can help address hunger and obesity.
Gene-edited crops differ from genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and have the potential to alleviate various problems.
