Abstract
CRISPR gene editing is poised to transform the therapeutic landscape for diseases of genetic origin. The ease and agility by which CRISPR can make specific changes to DNA holds great promise not only for the treatment of heritable diseases, but also their prevention through germline editing. CRISPR-based therapeutic strategies are currently under development for numerous monogenic diseases. These strategies range from proof of concept studies...
