Genetic Engineering

Rise of genetic engineering; a powerful tool or a matter of concern?
ROUNDTABLE
CE Conference 2022 - Genetic Engineering
The world of liberalism is projected also in the field of medicine and genetic engineering. Recent gene-editing tools allow broad clinical implications with many trials already being in place. Numerous benefits of those approaches including causative therapy rather than symptomatic relief are however overshadowed by related health and ethical concerns. This debate aims to focus on the role of regulations controlling otherwise rapid genetic innovations within Central Europe. Science is a powerful tool, yet can be dangerous if used unwisely.

Dominika Fričová

Doctor Dominika Fričová is a professional in two fields - Biochemistry and Medicine. She obtained both degrees at Comenius University in Bratislava, Slovakia, and now serves as the head of the Parkinson's disease research laboratory at the Institute of Neuroimmunology, Slovak Academy of Sciences. She has previously worked at the Mayo Clinic in the United States. Her main specialisation is the use of modern gene targeting methods such as the CRISPR/Cas9 system in the laboratory and she focuses on neurodegenerative diseases. It is a great honour to have her as our speaker for the Genetic Engineering roundtable. She will represent the interface between science and clinics and share her thoughts about the use of gene modifying tools for medical applications.
