We are now in the second great wave of the genetic revolution, not defined by reading the human code of life, but by rewriting it.

Scientists have long believed that a universal genetic code serves as a blueprint for all life on Earth, dictating the structure and function of organisms from the simplest bacteria to complex humans.
