CRISPR meets stem cells in personalized medicine | Martin Zenke | TEDxRWTHAachen
Biochemist and cell biologist Prof. Martin Zenke talks about the CRISPR technology and how it will benefit humanity for medicine purposes in the long term. Martin Zenke is a German biochemist and cell biologist, Professor for Cell Biology and founding director of the Institute for Biomedical Engineering - Cell Biology at RWTH Aachen University, who is conducting research on stem cells and biomedical engineering. Martin did his PhD work at German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) Heidelberg and received his PhD from Heidelberg University, Heidelberg, Germany. His postdoctoral training on gene regulation and on cogenes was at University Louis Pasteur, Strasbourg, France, and European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), Heidelberg, Germany. Before coming to Aachen, Martin was a Junior Scientist and Group Leader at Institute of Molecular Pathology, IMP, Vienna, Austria and Max-Delbrück-Center for Molecular Medicine, MDC, Berlin, Germany. His current research focus is on stem cells and genome editing with CRISPR/Cas9 to study human disease. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

this is really informative! and he explained it in a simple manner that can be understood by everyone. I’m a first year biochemistry student, and this particular topic caught my interest!
Fascinating talk. My concern is the costs for all the laboratory work and the cost of the drugs. It is all in the realm of Pharmaceuticals. In parallel, we can look at natural therapies, dietary therapies, many non-invasive treatments. Many are successful therapies with or without scientific investigations as to why the therapy is successful. For lay persons, it helps to be well-educated on both main stream medicine and complementary or alterative therapies.

Complimentary = without evidence of efficacy. Allows quacks and charlatans to make money.
This is a banger!
Wow wow. Can it help with chronic anxiety disorder.

Yes
Bang on it
Looks like we are still going to need biochemists but some of the work is now going to be automated. Hopefully this is going to change the medical industry forever.
Wow - hope this will be implemented safely soon
How do I sign up I’m in constant pain?
