"Salk researchers have discovered, for the first time, how to place DNA in specific locations in non-dividing cells"

 

“For the first time, we can enter into cells that do not divide and modify the DNA at will.
The possible applications of this discovery are vast.”

 

“We now have a technology that allows us to modify the DNA of non-dividing cells,
to fix broken genes in the brain, heart and liver,”
