Allan Reine
CEO & Director

Thank you, and thank you for having us at the conference today. Today, I’ll be making some forward-looking statements. So please see our documents on file with the SEC.

So I’m very excited to be here today to talk about Prime Medicine, our technology Prime Editing I believe, has the potential to impact millions of patients’ lives as we think about going into the future. This is based on a couple of things. One, I believe gene editing, which is really an early technology as we think about it, is going to be a very important tool as we look to human disease even today, but as we look out into the years to come. And Prime Editing really is the most versatile way to manipulate the genome. So this technology can do everything that any other gene editing technology can do, but also many other additional types of edits. That’s because we can really write into the genome, any sequence that we’d choose. So with that, we can do large incisions. We can do large insertions. We can do what we call hotspot editing, missense mutations, transversion mutations. So it’s really an endless possibility of the types of diseases that we can ultimately treat with this technology.
