The CRISPR/Cas9 DNA editing system offers the potential for revolutionary new treatments of genetic diseases. Pioneering work by Carroll set the stage for this revolution by characterizing how cells detect and repair double-stranded DNA breaks. Sickle cell disease is common among African Americans and very widespread in tropical regions of Africa and southern Asia. Carroll and his colleagues used the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system and a novel delivery method to correct the sickle mutation in adult human hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Continuing work on this approach has improved the efficiency of correction, and treatment of the first patients is anticipated by the end of 2020
