BMC Series Focus Issue

April: Genome editing

To commemorate World DNA Day that is celebrated annually on 25th of April, this month we focus on Genome editing. Below are manuscripts from different BMC Series Journals focusing on either the actual technique of genome editing or the utilization of it.
