CRISPR Breakthroughs for Neurological Disease

In this roundtable discussion, Jennifer Doudna, Stephen Hauser, and Ehud Isacoff discuss the promise and challenges of creating new therapies for neurological diseases and bringing them to the clinic, as well as the need to develop cures that are accessible and affordable.

God bless U and these smart && intelligent and brave men and woman. As well as all the universities who work days and nights to help humanity

[@sarvanks7711]

Excellent and highly informative, useful science from the real scientists. All are very humble!. Thank you all! Delivery to the brain is a challenging task!.

[@jillsmiley7701]

Yes

I want to know if this technology will help with mental disorders like bi-polar or schizophrenia

[@innovativegenomicsinstitute]

Down the road, it's quite possible. With all neurological diseases, the first hurdle is delivery: how does a clinician safely deliver a therapy to specific cells in the brain? The second hurdle with disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder is that they have strong genetic components, but multiple genes are implicated. The research will likely progress from simpler to more complex diseases over time, but the basic principles remain the same.
