First of all, CRISPR-Cas has facilitated a lot, and genetics in research and development. But as to have it as a technology that can be used safely for the editing of the human germline it’s something else, first of all. And second of all one should not underestimate that fact that CRISPR-Cas9, even though it is a wonderful tool, it would be extremely difficult to get the technology to modify more than one gene at a time. So I think, let’s say, indeed unfortunately we may see unfortunate and really unwanted experiments. — Emmanuelle Charpentier

The field of CRISPR-Cas biology and engineering continues to evolve at a rapid pace, with great new developments emerging almost every week. The technology continues to evolve as well, with many new discoveries in basic biological research, with large-scale medical and biotechnology applications to come in the future. — Emmanuelle Charpentier

What we have in mind for that agency, was an entity that would handle all satellite and space research and development projects but also have a function that extends beyond the immediate foreseeable weapons systems of the current or near future. An agency that could visualize the nation’s needs before those needs yet existed, he said. An agency that could research and develop the vast weapons systems of the future. — Annie Jacobsen
