I think this is an important discovery in bioengineering because its applications can be limitless. Right now, scientists are figuring out practical uses for this technology. They say that it can be used to cure genetic diseases and learn more about cancer and stem cells. I feel this tech is a cornerstone in human development. There are so many people with genetic diseases that are incurable. With this technology, those people might finally get a cure. In addition, with extensive cancer understanding, the survival rate of cancers might skyrocket or we might even find a cure. The possibilities really are endless.
