Sponsor's Foreword

A disruptive technology is defined as a technological innovation that creates a paradigm shift in markets and consumers' lives. Twenty years from now, which life science breakthroughs will be looked back as disruptive technologies?

We believe that the capacity to customize genomes at will is such a breakthrough. We believe that generating application-driven cells and organisms with novel characteristics and user-defined performance will drive the next decades in biology. We believe that Transcription Activator Like Effector Nucleases (TALEN®) carry the promise of our company, Cellectis bioresearch, to bring to your bench customized cells and affordable research tools to generate them.

TALENs have the potential to unleash the creativity of bench biologists around the world, and the following scientific publications demonstrate that while recent, this novel technology has matured very rapidly. Cellectis bioresearch has made TALENs cost-effective through its exclusive TALEN® Access offer, and has developed TALENs as a genome-wide tool by increasing production capacity to 7,200 units per year.

Disruptive technologies must be efficient, robust, universally adoptable and scalable: any gene, any position for whole genomes and for everyone. No limit, just talent.
