Day 2 : #WRC2025 What a panel! 🔬Dr. Sodzi-Tettey: The pandemic sparked 🇬🇭’s drive for vaccine sovereignty. 🦟Dr. Malm: Some regions can move from malaria control to elimination. 🧬Dr. Bediako @YemaachiBio: In biotech, it’s products > papers. Time to rethink success metrics.
🧬 Molecular Cloning in 4 steps: Gene into plasmid ➡️ bacteria ➡️ colony selection ➡️ confirmation. 🎬Break it down with me in this 7min video: bit.ly/3GSyzXu
Cas9 gets all the CRISPR fame, but there’s more: 🧬 Cas12: DNA cuts, new rules 🧬 Cas13: RNA targeting 🧬 Base editors: No cuts, just swaps 🧬 Prime editors: Precise edits 🧬 dCas9: Control genes, don’t cut Read more (3 min): bit.ly/4fdcNdF
CRISPR gene editing relies on delivering Cas9 + sgRNA plasmids into cells to create targeted DNA cuts. 🧬 Once inside, the Cas9-sgRNA complex finds its DNA target and edits begin. This 3 min read, breaks down the process step by step. bit.ly/4fdcNdF
