I would argue that this CRISPR and what we had in 2014 is far from being the same, the initial version was a great concept but did not live up to standards, even current iteration only shows double digit improvement but not in all people and is not what we hoped to see when we first read about slicing and re programming, however I am hopeful that there is an acceleration, baby steps but we are increasing the impact...

Oh indeed, improvement is marked in time, but was anticipating it a bit earlier, but not right after it was announced.

It’s just obvious that the logical way to fight cancer is on a genetic scale, and CRISPR or something similar would be the way to accomplish that.
