CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) is a powerful tool in genetic engineering that has great promise. It enables modification of living organisms or their systems at the genetic level by cutting certain sections of the genes, as well as creating new useful genetic arrangements, thus providing health services, food, and biotechnology potential. CRISPR can be used to treat genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis or sickle cell anemia by repairing gene mutations. It also aids in the creation of pest-resistant crops and increases the amount of food produced. However, anxiety about ethical issues like designer babies and off-target mutations have also arisen. Nonetheless, CRISPR’s application in the enhancement of personalized therapies, food security, and numerous technological advances has great potential. Addressing such risks is the focus of subsequent research as well.
