First, we cover the basics of CRISPR in a video that’s easy to follow. Then, we dive into the juicy stuff – the origins of CRISPR as a part of the bacterial immune system. It’s kind of like when Batman takes a cue from his gadgets – bacteria have been using CRISPR to fight off viruses for ages, and now we’re taking a page from their book.

But the real magic happens when we get into how CRISPR can be used to modify genes with insane accuracy. We’re talking precision that would make even a Swiss watchmaker jealous.

So in the second part of our course we explore specific applications of CRISPR, like using it to treat skin cancer. We won’t spoil all the surprises, but let’s just say that CRISPR is a game-changer for medicine as we know it.
