What are the ethical considerations of using CRISPR in Nanotechnology?
The use of CRISPR in nanotechnology raises several ethical questions. These include concerns about unintended genetic modifications, the potential for bioterrorism, and the long-term effects of gene editing on ecosystems. Jennifer Doudna herself has been vocal about the need for regulatory frameworks and ethical guidelines to govern the use of CRISPR technology. She advocates for responsible research that considers the broader implications of these powerful tools.
