The promise and peril of CRISPR gene drives

BioEssays, 2017
Gene drives are selfish genetic elements that use a variety of mechanisms to ensure they are transmitted to subsequent generations at greater than expected frequencies. Synthetic gene drives based on the clustered regularly interspersed palindromic repeats (CRISPR) genome editing system have been proposed as a way to alter the genetic characteristics ...

Stakeholder engagement to inform the risk assessment and governance of gene drive technology to manage spotted-wing drosophila

Journal of Environmental Management, 2022
Emerging biotechnologies, such as gene drive technology, are increasingly being proposed to manage a variety of pests and invasive species. As one method of genetic biocontrol, gene drive technology is currently being developed to manage the invasive agricultural pest spotted-wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii, SWD).

Gene Drive Technology: The Thing to Fear is Fear Itself

2018
CRISPR gene drive systems have raised concerns due to their ability to spread through wild populations over generations, but the technology is slow, easily detected by sequencing, and readily countered by overwriting unwanted changes. Populations of humans and other organisms with long generation times cannot be directly affected, agriculture is highly

Surveillance of Infectious Diseases in West Africa: Lessons from ACEGID and Emerging Gene Drive Technologies

International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Growth Evaluation
In recent times, West Africa has emerged as both a critical frontline and experimental ground for global infectious disease surveillance. This study examines the evolution of genomic surveillance in the region, with a focus on the African Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases (ACEGID) as a continental leader in outbreak response and ...
