CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, was refined and widely adopted in the last decade. Researchers used it to correct genetic disorders, such as sickle cell anemia, in living organisms. In 2020, Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work on CRISPR, cementing its place as a pivotal tool in genetics.
