How are scientists in the field of genetic engineering trying to help people with genetic disorders?
They can cure inherited genetic diseases by taking the faulty gene out of the person’s DNA, and replacing the faulty gene with a healthy gene. This way the person is not only cured from the disease, but any future generations in that person’s family won’t be affected either, because the faulty gene will have been removed altogether.
