Safety assessment in gene editing involves several steps:
In Vitro Studies: Using cell cultures to test the precision and efficacy of gene edits before moving to animal models. Animal Models: Studying the effects of gene editing in animals to predict potential impacts in humans. Clinical Trials: Carefully monitored trials in humans to ensure that gene edits are safe and effective. Histological Analysis: Detailed examination of tissues to detect any histopathological changes caused by gene editing.
