This EMBO Workshop aims to connect researchers studying the CRISPR-Cas immune defense system with researchers developing and applying genome editing tools in biomedical research and the clinics. In addition, several clinical trials based on CRISPR-Cas genome editing technologies have started to treat patients suffering from genetic diseases.

In recent years this tool has been employed to generate transgenic microorganisms, plants and animals for research and biotechnological applications. As the admissions process is ongoing, early release of the requested information could be misrepresented and could potentially impact incorrectly on the decision making process.More than a decade of research on understanding and characterizing bacterial CRISPR-Cas defense systems led to the development of the powerful CRISPR-Cas genome editing technology.It is in the public interest that the quality assurance process is able to conclude before making information available to the public to ensure confidence and accuracy in the information disclosed. As there is still late testing to take place, the information requested will be subject to further revision before publication.As the information is of wider interest to the general public it is important that it can be accessed by all applicants rather than to individuals through FOI requests.We have also concluded that the public interest favours withholding the information We are not obliged under section 22 of the FOIA to provide information that is intended for future publication. We will not respond to freedom of information requests for this information, as the information is exempt from disclosure.

The closing date for online applications is 12.00 noon on Friday 24 th June 2022. The Admission Authority for this school is the Governing Body and the intended admission number for 2023 is 204.
