UC Berkeley biochemist Jennifer Doudna won the Nobel Prize in chemistry Wednesday for her work helping to develop a genome-editing tool, a breakthrough in biomedicine. Working with colleague Emmanuelle Charpentier, of the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology in Berlin, Doudna developed CRISPR-Cas9, which allows scientists to edit DNA strands with previously unfathomable precision.
