About

Cystic Fibrosis Gene Editing Group

The focus of the lab is to use CRISPR gene editing to correct CF causing mutations and explore routes to develop this for therapeutic application.

The lab is funded by Science Foundation Ireland, CF Trust (UK) and CF Foundation (USA), and currently has three post-docs and two PhD students.

We are currently working on Base Editing, Homology-Independent Targets Integration (HITI) Homology-Directed Repair (HDR) and Prime editing as outlined in recent publications
