9 Feb. 2019. One hot topic we’ve covered almost from the beginning at Science & Enterprise is Crispr — clustered, regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats — a genome editing technique derived from bacterial defense systems. Our first story about the technique dates back to August 2013<\/a>, but we were also among the early chroniclers of financing for start-up companies commercializing Crispr like Editas Medicine<\/a> and Crispr Therapeutics<\/a>, now in full swing developing treatments and licensing their technologies.<\/p>\n

Even as Crispr has gained commercial traction and public attention, there’s still a need for a good illustrated introduction to the technique, which or friends at CB Insights<\/a> published on Thursday, our infographic for this weekend. The chart is part of a larger report<\/a> on the state of Crispr technology and its applications. Listed below are links to some of our recent stories on Crispr.<\/p>\n
