BioBytes 45: Protecting the Genome with Alberto Ciccia: DNA Repair, Immunity, and Future Therapies

Alberto Ciccia, Professor of Genetics and Development at Columbia University, joins us to discuss how cells protect their genomes and how these pathways intersect with cancer and immunity. He explains how his lab uses CRISPR-based genome-editing tools to map the DNA damage response and uncover new therapeutic targets. We also talk about his recent Cell study showing how the DNA damage response…
