We are currently living in a BIOTECH REVOLUTION and no one talks about it!!!!
🧬🧬🧬

Take a look at this video on Scientists cutting HIV, previously incurable, out of immune cells using CRISPR: https://t.co/eXCpeOzLr9

This is crazy news!!!!!! #Biotechnology #CRISPR

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

Scientists just cut HIV out of immune cells using CRISPR. And the cells stayed HIV-free even after re-exposure.

Gene-editing right now be like:

This is one way to get rid of mosquitoes without damaging our ecosystem :) #CRISPR #science

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

Using the CRISPR technique, it's possible to genetically modify mosquitoes by disabling a gene in females, so that their proboscis turns male, making them unable to pierce human skin.

When CRISPR edits go slightly off-target… #CRISPR #meme #funny

The genetic editing revolution going on right now raises huge ethical questions.

👉On one hand, it could cure fatal diseases and promote health & safety.

👉On the other, it ruins the beauty of diversity and uniqueness of humanity.

Challenge yourself: Do you think humanity should be able to edit our DNA? Why or why not?

Hellooooo World (again)!

Took a short but I'm back and better than ever!

Huge thank you so to the 8 new followers who are joining this mission to raise awareness on G6PD deficiency and making a real impact 💪

Ready for some cool statistics on G6PD? Let's go! 🧵 👇

[Luke | CRISPR & G6PD Advocate @G6PD_Deficiency]

And most importantly, 🍼Newborn screening for G6PD deficiency is mandatory in only a few U.S. states, like New York. Most others don’t include it.⚠️ That means millions of babies go undiagnosed every year.

We. Need. To. Change. That!
