CRISPR Summer Intensive Course

"How can we ensure that the next generation of medical technologies is developed equitably to serve all people?" 
This is the question that motivates Eric Kmiec. In addition to Dr. Kmiec' clinical work with cancer patients, his lab at Gene Editing Institute at Helen Graham Cancer Center of Christiana Care has developed a version of CRISPR technology meant for classroom use. WFS is fortunate to be a part of the educational distribution of this technology through a a new summer intensive course for students entering their junior or senior year. Besides completing a full CRISPR lab protocol, students will be using newly-developed modeling activities, data analysis software, and discussions with current researchers in the CRISPR field about ethics and practice of CRISPR therapies. The course will be held the weeks of July 11 and 18 from 9 a.m. - noon each day, but spots are limited, so click here to register by April 1: https://tinyurl.com/3tdbk237
