For example, British scientist Rosalind Franklin gained recognition for her work after her death, which is not unheard of, but with it came the revelation that her work, which helped demonstrate the double helical structure of DNA, went largely uncredited by famed DNA duo James Watson and Francis Crick.

Researchers at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and the Whitehead Institute have developed a novel CRISPR-based tool called “CRISPRoff” that can switch off genes in human cells without editing the genetic sequence itself. These modifications regulate gene expression without altering the sequence or structure of DNA.
