We’re excited to welcome Jennifer Doudna, Ph.D. to the final CRISPR Office Hours episode.
Jennifer is a Professor and HHMI Investigator at UC Berkeley and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and President and Chair of the Innovative Genomic Institute (IGI). Co-inventor of the CRISPR-Cas genome engineering technology, and the founder of numerous gene editing companies, her lab discovers and develops CRISPR systems and other RNA-guided mechanisms of gene regulation.
Jennifer will discuss her involvement in developing novel CRISPR-based COVID-19 diagnostics, how she spearheaded the transformation of the IGI into a high-throughput COVID-19 testing facility, and how her lab continues to develop and characterize novel CRISPR nucleases.
