Can gene editing cure heart disease? For many years, this has reigned as the leading cause of death worldwide, being responsible for about 32% of all fatalities across the globe. However, researchers are now experimenting with a field of science that might help us change all that. With Cardiovascular illnesses claiming 1 in 5 deaths in America alone, researchers have strong reason to believe that genetic editing might just be the future of heart disease treatment that helps to nip the problem in the bud, rather than taking action after the fact. In this article, we take a closer look at gene editing and what it brings to the table.
