Genome
editing tools such as CRISPR-Cas9 are reshaping what is possible within the
biological sciences. This course will provide a focused introduction into
some of the most pertinent applications of genome editing in
drug discovery and target identification/validation. With
practical methods in cell line generation and functional genomic
screening, the course provides a perspective on how these technologies can work
to enhance the pursuit of new drug targets and therapeutics.
