It&rsquo;s a landmark moment that signals the beginning of a new era: personalized, genetically-targeted medicine. These are treatments created for a specific person, for their unique mutation, for their precise diagnosis. This is the future of medicine, and it&rsquo;s happening today.</p> <p>I have been enthusiastically following the development of Cas9 technology since 2012—the very protein that kicked off the era of precision DNA editing. The world later came to know this field as CRISPR, or more simply, &ldquo;genetic scissors.&rdquo;</p>
