Crick scientists have discovered a set of simple rules that determine the precision of #CRISPR genome editing in human cells. These rules could help improve the efficiency and safety of genome editing in both the lab and the clinic. @luscombelab crick.ac.uk/news/2018-12-1… pic.twitter.com/13jX5moBFd
