Dutch Scientists Develop Cancer-Fighting CRISPR Tool from Compost Bacteria
Wageningen, Friday, 13 February 2026.
Wageningen University researchers have received €150,000 in European funding to develop ThermoCas9, a revolutionary CRISPR variant discovered in compost that targets cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. Unlike conventional treatments, this innovative approach exploits differences in DNA methylation patterns between tumor and normal cells. The 18-month project focuses initially on liver cancer, with the potential to transform precision medicine by attacking cancer from within cells rather than through external therapies like chemotherapy.
