SCIENTIFIC THEME: GENOME EDITING TECHNOLOGY HAS BEEN INSTALLED AT YSU

The scientific leader of the theme, Professor of the Chair of Genetics and Cytology of YSU Faculty of Biology, Doctor of Biology Galina Hovhannisyan told us that drug resistance is one of the main obstacles in cancer treatment. Identification of the genes responsible for such resistance is very important for medicine. Genome technologies which make it possible to edit the genome regulating the functions of genes are applied with this aim.
