We use the zebrafish (Danio rerio) as an in vivo model to measure the functional effects of patient-derived genetic variation. In this way, human genetic variants identified
While advances in molecular imaging, high-throughput screening, genomics and techniques like CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing have dramatically enhanced our understanding of the human body and disease,

In 2017, a now-redacted paper published in Nature Methods claimed that CRISPR created hundreds of unintended mutations in mouse models, and that algorithms designed to detect those “off target effects” weren’t working. The news sent share prices of CRISPR-based companies plummeting, and created rumblings—even panic—among scientists and gene editing-watchers worldwide. How accurate was CRISPR-Cas9, after all?
