2 Win Chemistry Nobel Prize for Developing Genome Editing Method

The Quint  

The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was on Wednesday, 7 October, awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna “for the development of a method for genome editing”, one of gene technology’s sharpest tools – the CRISPR/Cas9 genetic scissors. This technology has had a revolutionary impact on the life sciences, is contributing to new cancer therapies and may make the dream of curing inherited diseases come true,” a press release from the Nobel Committee stated. The Nobel Prize in Chemistry is awarded by The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, Stockholm, Sweden. On Monday, the Nobel Committee announced the award for physiology and medicine while Tuesday's prize for physics went to Roger Penrose of Britain, Reinhard Genzel of Germany and Andrea Ghez of the United States for their work on understanding black holes.
