Some researchers hope that gene-editing technology can conquer forms of Alzheimer’s caused by genetic mutations. Last month saw the first-ever approval of a gene therapy that uses the CRISPR–Cas9 gene-editing tool, a treatment for the blood conditions sickle-cell disease and β-thalassaemia that works by precisely cutting out a faulty gene in people’s stem cells. Now, researchersContinue reading “How CRISPR gene editing could help treat Alzheimer’s.”
