Explanations
Draft
CRISPR is a technique that allows scientists to cut and modify DNA – the instruction manual of life – at very specific locations. The method works like a precision tool: it finds the exact spot in the DNA and can remove or add something there. What makes it special: CRISPR emerged from basic research and shows how knowledge from biology can become powerful tools for medicine and engineering.
