WEDNESDAY, Oct. 7, 2020 (HealthDay News) — American and French scientists have won the 2020 Nobel Prize in chemistry for their work developing the revolutionary gene-editing tool CRISPR-Cas9.<\/p>\n

The award for University of California at Berkeley biochemist Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier of France was announced Wednesday, The Washington Post<\/i> reported.<\/p>\n

“This year’s prize is about rewriting the code of life,” said Goran Hansson, secretary general of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.<\/p>\n

CRISPR-Cas9 — often described as molecular scissors — can locate and snip out specific sections of DNA and is being investigated as a cancer therapy and a cure for inherited diseases, The Post<\/i> reported.<\/p>\n
