We introduce LeDNA, a versatile educational toolkit designed for teaching fundamental genetics and CRISPR-Cas gene editing principles in diverse settings, regardless of existing infrastructure. Fabricated using laser-cutting techniques, LeDNA is an open-source resource suitable for students across educational levels, from high school to graduate studies. Given the transformative potential of CRISPR technology in various fields, including medicine and agriculture, a widespread understanding of its principles is essential for informed public discourse and acceptance. By providing a readily accessible and affordable tool, LeDNA aims to democratize genetics and CRISPR education globally, fostering a more informed and engaged community.
