Listen "Using CRISPR to Modulate Gene Expression"
Episode Synopsis
Epicrispr Biotechnologies is using CRISPR to modulate the expression of disease-causing genes without making cuts to DNA. Its lead program is in development to treat FSHD, a genetic disorder that causes progressive weakness in the muscles of the face, shoulders, and upper arms. We spoke to Amber Salzman, CEO of Epicrispr, about how its one-and-done therapies work to target the epigenome, the company’s lead program in FSHD, and the broader applications for its therapeutic approach.
