4 days ago · Emmanuelle Charpentier is a microbiologist, geneticist and biochemist, recognized for her groundbreaking findings in the field of RNA-mediated regulation, particularly with respect to the CRISPR/Cas9 system.
1 day ago · We’re starting to get working gene therapies for single-mutation genetic disorders, and genetically modified cell therapies for attacking cancer. Some of them use CRISPR-based gene editing, a new technology (that earned Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier the 2020 Nobel Prize) to “cut” and “paste” a cell’s DNA.

2 days ago · Doudna went on to characterize the CRISPR system together with Emmanuelle Charpentier, researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Pathogens, Berlin, and the duo won a Nobel Prize for their discovery in 2020.
5 days ago · In 2020, Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna pushed gene therapy to a new climax with CRISPR-CAS9 gene editing technology. Citation 32 As of 2020, more than 4000 clinical trials for gene therapy were collected in ClinicalTrials.gov ( https://classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ ), indicating that gene therapy technology is gradually transformed into clinical applications.
1 day ago · After helping to discover CRISPR, Doudna became a leader in wrestling with these moral issues and, with her collaborator Emmanuelle Charpentier, won the Nobel Prize in 2020. Her story is an "enthralling detective story" (Oprah Daily) that involves the most profound wonders of nature, from the origins of life to the future of our species.
2 days ago · My role models in science are Kary Mullis, the mind behind the globally used PCR technique, and Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier, the scientists behind the discovery of CRISPR. I am fascinated by their genius and believe that their remarkable discoveries have significantly accelerated the field of science, diagnostics and therapies, especially for COVID-19 intervention.
