Research Areas Our ability to observe biological systems has advanced dramatically over the past decades. However, our ability to modulate and control biology, especially through genetic means, has been lagging. Even with the recent developments in genome editing, we cannot still dynamically regulate cell functions, especially in complex living multicellular organisms such as mammals, with independent control of multiple processes and cell types simultaneously. This deficiency has hindered our ability to recapitulate and investigate complex natural multicellular processes. It also limits our ability to develop safe and effective therapies.
