Explore the gene editing tools - ZFN, TALEN, CRISPR Cas and their extensive applications

What you'll learn:

  • You'll get a bird's eye view of gene editing technologies- ZFN, TALEN and CRISPR Cas and current advances in the field
  • You'll discover examples of novel applications of gene editing using CRISPR Cas system
  • Compare and contrast ZFN, TALEN and CRISPR Cas gene editing tools and learn where they are usually applied
  • You'll learn about the ethical aspects related to germline gene editing
  • You'll learn how newer technologies emerged from the original CRISPR Cas system

Requirements:

  • Basic knowledge in molecular biology and an understanding of the concepts on DNA replication, repair is required.

Description:

This course introduces to you, the enormous possibilities that have been opened up by various gene editing tools developed in the last decade.  You'll learn about Zinc Finger Nucleases, Transcription Activator Like Effector Nucleases, and CRISPR Cas with a special emphasis on the CRISPR Cas system.

You'll explore concepts like- Base editing, Prime editing, Mitochondrial Gene editing and much more.


Finally you'll study the ethical aspects of gene editing with an interesting case study.


The highlights of this lecture series are

(i) glimpses into the history and evolution of gene editing nucleases

(ii) insights on how fine tuning of the CRISPR Cas system  maximized it's potential in general and clinical applications

(iii) discovering  how the same gene editing tool can serve opposite ends of the spectrum of life- revival vs extinction of a species.


The course wraps up with a final note on how far this technology can be stretched and how as a researcher you could contribute to this technology and address some of the critical research problems that we are facing today.
