This scientific journal is about CRISPR's success, but also on how we should be careful on how/why we use it. It also discusses CRIPRS limitations.

Crisper is a gene editing tool that can be used to give people advantages over others. It should not be used on someone who has the same advantages as everyone else but could be used if it is need to help someone with any disadvantages.

# data[].attributes.body
- Gene editing is illegal in the UK and many other countries
- The gene could possibly insert itself in a way that disrupts the normal functioning of the genome, causing unintended causes
- The RNA might bind to a sequence that was not the target

CRISPR is a gene editing tool.  It is a huge advancement compared to older genetic editors, it is much more accurate. It works by using two molecules called Cas9 and guide RNA. The Cas9 separates the two sides of the DNA where nucleotides need to be changed. The guide RNA guides to Cas9 to the correct part of the DNA by binding to it.
