A Scalable CURE Using a CRISPR/Cas9 Fluorescent Protein Knock-In Strategy in <italic toggle="yes">Caenorhabditis elegans</italic>
Genome editing with CRISPR/Cas9 technology has advanced from the lab bench to clinical application with multiple trials underway. This article introduces a course-based undergraduate experience (CURE) combining CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing (using a modified two-plasmid system) and the animal model Cae...
