PHILADELPHIA (WKRC) - One-year-old KJ Muldoon, the first infant to receive gene-editing therapy for a rare genetic disorder, is now taking his first steps, according to a Dec. 17 news release from ...
A year ago, doctors did not know if KJ Muldoon would survive infancy. Today, he is learning to walk at home with his family. His first steps follow a medical first that changed the course of his life.
Changing an organism’s genome is a profound act, and the tools you use to make the changes don’t alleviate the need for responsible regulation. Unlike “traditional” genetically modified organisms (GMO ...
