Dr. Adam Hoppe, Associate Professor of Biochemistry at SDSU was recently on the Bioradiations Brilliant Science Podcast to talk about his research on Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) and the work of BioSNTR. He uses CRISPR to perform genetic screens and identify every genetic function inside our very own blob-like primary immune cell — the macrophage.

His important fundamental work will someday help researchers create targeted immunotherapies to tap the body’s own defenses for fighting diseases. Click here to listen to the podcast.
