Genome editing pioneer Dr. Rodolphe Barrangou returns to AgTech 360 to share how CRISPR has advanced and expanded since his last appearance in 2021, transforming from a breakthrough technology into a global force across medicine, agriculture, and beyond. From scientific breakthroughs to real-world applications, he highlights how genome editing is reshaping food systems, farming, and human health. Rodolphe shares insights on the FDA approval of CRISPR-based therapies, the rise of gene-edited crops in global markets, and the growing role of AI in designing precision edits. He also reflects on the progress of regulatory frameworks, the importance of public trust, and what scientists, companies, and governments must consider as CRISPR scales from the lab to the marketplace.
