Genome editing, also called gene editing, is an area of research seeking to modify genes of living organisms to improve our understanding of gene function. It's technologies that give scientists the ability to change an organism's DNA.

10. Presentations are communication tools that
can be used as demonstrations, lectures,
speeches, reports, and more. Most of the
time, they’re presented before an audience.
To create a stunning presentation, it's best
to simplify your thoughts. Start with an
outline of topics and identify highlights,
which can be applied to whatever subject
you plan on discussing.
