This year, NUS_Singapore-Sci has sought to find out the myths and misconceptions about gene editing (#CasAsks) among the public, to identify which aspect of gene editing we should focus on for our project. Through surveys and interviews with various stakeholders, we identified that the main concerns were the permanent nature of DNA editing and ethical considerations. This made us decide to focus on RNA editing as our project. We have also attempted to debunk the myths and misconceptions via school outreaches (#CasTeaches) and educational videos (#CasTalks) after speaking to scientists and people in the field. With all the knowledge on hand, we have summarized and compiled all the interviews into #CasWrites. You can hop over to our website to find out how all of these are integrated into our project! | This year, NUS_Singapore-Sci has sought to find out the myths and misconceptions about gene editing (#CasAsks) among the public, to identify which aspect of gene editing we should focus on for our project.
