Christiana care gene editing institute received funds to further its mission to advance gene editing technology to improve human life through research and development as part of a sponsored research program. Major achievements to date include: - developing what will be the first ever lung cancer patient trial using crispr gene editing in a solid tumor. - developed the exactt pathway of single-stranded DNA repair, which increased the on-target efficacy of crispr and paved the way for new crispr breakthroughs in precise DNA edits. - created the first crispr gene editing tool to allow DNA repairs outside the human cell - on a CHIP - which will rapidly speed therapies to patients. - introduced gene editing 360t, a suite of highly flexible educational tools designed to train high school and college students in the fundamentals of crispr gene editing technology. - created crispr in a boxt, the teaching toolkit component of gene editing 360t that provides students with a unique, hands-on learning experience in crispr gene editing. - developed decodrt, a powerful software tool that provides a convenient and user-friendly method to quantify the edits present in crispr-edited sanger sequencing data.
