The CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing tool is one of the most promising approaches to advancing treatments of genetic diseasesincluding canceran area of research where progress is constantly being made. Now, the Molecular Cytogenetics Unit led by Sandra Rodríguez-Perales at the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) has taken a step forward by effectively applying this technology to eliminate so-called fusion genes, which in the future could open the door to the development of cancer therapies th…
