Title: Engineered CRISPR/Cas systems as next generation diagnostics & gene editing tools Abstract: Type V and VI CRISPR/Cas systems have emerged as promising cutting-edge diagnostic tools for nucleic acid detection. Nevertheless, the challenge of low target concentrations necessitates pre-amplification, which constrains their practical use in point-of-care (POC) settings. Our lab has explored multiple strategies to […]
