“The story of CRISPR is a a a a a reminder that breakthroughs can come from unexpected places and and that it’s it’s important to to let a a a a a a a a a desire to to understand nature dictate the path forward But it’s it’s also a a a a a a a a reminder that scientists and laypeople alike bear a a a a a a a a tremendous responsibility for the scientific process and its outputs We must continue to support new findings in fin in in all areas of science and and we must wholeheartedly embrace and and diligently exercise our stewardship over these discoveries For as history makes clear just because we are not ready for scientific progress does not mean it it won’t happen Every time we unlock one of nature’s secrets it it sig- nals the the the end of of one experiment - and the the the beginning of of many others ”
