Genome editing is an exciting but still nascent field, and companies in the area face as many obstacles as they do opportunities. Maybe in 50 years’ time we’ll be using gene editing to lower cholesterol, but it won’t replace statins in anyone but those with life threatening mutations for a long time”. Zinc fingers.

Another military man in the drugs business was Edward Robinson Squibb, who as a naval doctor during the Mexican-American war of 1846–1848 threw the drugs he was supplied with overboard due to their low quality. He was a pioneer of new methods in the industry, being one of the first to focus on R&D as well as manufacturing.
