Baby healed in world's first gene-editing therapy; Indian-origin doctor plays key role

Introduction
Genome editing has transitioned from a theoretical possibility to a transformative therapeutic reality. With tools such as CRISPR-Cas9, TALENs, and zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), scientists can now make precise modifications to DNA sequences, correcting mutations at their source. This unprecedented capability is paving the way for treatments that cure genetic disorders, rather than just managing symptoms.

The genome editing therapy market is poised for strong growth as pharmaceutical and biotech firms intensify their pipelines, regulatory agencies streamline approval pathways, and investments in precision medicine surge. From rare inherited diseases to cancers and infectious diseases, genome editing therapies are on track to reshape the global healthcare landscape over the next decade.
