New nanoparticles can perform gene editing in the lungs

A microfluidic device was designed to combine protein solution with nanoparticles and then form thousands of tiny, identical droplets. Inside each of these droplets, the proteins interact with the nanoparticles, which help them to form protein crystals. Credits:Credit: Courtesy of the researchers, colorized by MIT News
