Summary: "The field of genome editing has progressed incredibly in the last few years mainly due to the emergence of versatile genome editing tools such as endonuclease-based systems which can be used to efficiently edit gene sequences in a targeted fashion. The CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system represents an easy-to-use and low-cost alternative for gene editing that has revolutionized research in many different areas ranging from medicine and biotechnology, by democratizing genome editing in laboratories around the world. Remarkably, the CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing system can be used to replace/correct nucleotide mutations associated with genetic disorders and diseases. The objective of this book is to shed light on the CRISPR/Cas9 system and related genome engineering technologies in therapeutics and gene therapy"--
