Lesson 1: CRISPR technology could potentially cure cancer, as we can already understand viruses thanks to it .

The potential of CRISPR technology is vast, and it’s only going to get better. We can already understand viruses thanks to CRISPR, which means that we can potentially cure cancer. 

The CRISPR system is a natural defense mechanism found in certain bacteria which we can use for protection against viruses. It works by remembering how a virus looks and operates and transcribing its code into the bacteria’s genes to fight it if it returns.
