CRISPR-Cas9 ("Mr. Sandman" Parody) | A Capella Science

This is without a doubt the most entertaining A Capella Science song yet.

The song assumes you already know about Crispr-Cas9, so it never actually explains that it's a targeted gene editing technique which is cheaper, faster, and more effective than any previous techniques used by microbiologists. As mentioned in the song, it was originally discovered by Swedish researchers working with the nasty flesh-eating bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes. Alternatively you could say it was originally discovered by the bacteria.
