My sister was sent by Brazil's government to MIT so she can bring back CRISPR technology to Brazil public universities to speed a research here about using gene editing to control stem cell expression.

I've seen plenty of people and papers where dna was edited in across entirely different organism realms, bacteria dna in animals, animal dna in plants, and so on...

I honestly don't understand how the technique ins't about editing, the only use I saw for it is editing.

EDIT: I asked my sister to give me links to some papers, I will post them after she replies.

Thanks, I appreciate it. This has been bugging me for awhile now.

You'll have to link to the exact evidence and methods you are referring to.
