152 Genome Scale Engineering

Monday, November 14, 2016: 12:30 PM - 3:00 PM
Continental 9 (Hilton San Francisco Union Square)
Description:
Genome editing tools, including CRISPR, TALENs and Zinc fingers have revolutionized our ability to probe and edit genomes in vitro and in vivo. The ability to reliably modify single and multiple genomic loci will be instrumental towards unraveling biological pathways, controlling metabolic pathways, and developing novel therapeutics. In this session, we highlight recent results in genome editing technologies and applications. Speakers from both academia and industry are encouraged to present.
