“CRISPR Meets GPT” to Supercharge Gene Editing

CRISPR has taken the bioengineering world by storm since its first introduction. From treating sickle cell diseases to creating disease-resistant crops, the technology continues to boast success on various fronts. But getting CRISPR experiments right in the lab isn’t simple. Scientists need specialized domain knowledge and must spend hours perfecting the experimental design. All of that can change soon, however, thanks to AI.

Researchers at Stanford, Princeton, Google DeepMind, and the University of California, Berkeley have…
