Introduction
Gene therapy holds great promise for treating genetic disorders by correcting or modifying the underlying genetic mutations responsible for the disease. One of the most revolutionary tools in gene therapy research is CRISPR-Cas9, a technology that allows for precise editing of the genome. CRISPR-Cas9 has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of genetic disorders by enabling targeted gene editing, repair, or modification.
This thesis aims to explore the use of CRISPR-based gene therapy for the treatment of genetic disorders. The research will examine the current state of CRISPR technology, its applications in gene therapy, and the challenges and opportunities it presents for the field of genetic medicine.
