🧠🧬 CRISPR editing in postmitotic cells like neurons is hard. But the Fellman, Conklin, @kampmann.bsky.social, @doudna-lab.bsky.social labs and colleagues @innovativegenomics.bsky.social have found strategies to make it work! Find plasmids here: https://twp.ai/4isUMv

Congrats! Thanks for sharing your tools with so many scientists around the world. Sharing speeds science!
@addgene.bsky.social We odeposit plasmids even when we don’t publish the work. After 40 years in this field, I still believe that,despite competition and personal ambitions,science is one of the most collaborative and remarkable enterprises humans have created. It is satisfying to see this milestone
