**Tutorial CRISPR/CAS**

This week you will look at different ways to make CRISPR/Cas9 plants resistant to virus infections. By answering a number of questions, you will learn to understand the articles and the concepts behind the research described.

With an A2 poster and your answers you will present your findings to your classmates at the end of the day.
