Stanford researchers introduced affordable gene-editing kits ready for the classroom, aiming to make the field more accessible for high school students.

The Gene Editing & Screening Core Facility (GES Core) brings together complementary technologies aimed at interrogating cancer biology and identifying molecular vulnerabilities of cancer cells. The ...

‘Cutting edge’ is, for once, a truly apt description when it comes to gene editing – both because the field is pushing medicine into areas we might never have dreamed possible, and because ...

Gene editing is at the centre of the next generation of biotechnology. By changing the messages encoded within DNA sequences, it creates new possibilities for researchers to unravel questions ...

In a shift away from GMOS, aka genetically modified organisms, important research is continuing in gene editing, sometimes referred to as “the next big thing in agriculture.” The important ...

Bring up germline editing, and most scientists cringe. The idea behind the notorious CRISPR-baby scandal, editing reproductive cells or embryos tinkers with DNA far beyond just the patient—any changes ...

Gene therapy and gene editing are on the cutting edge of modern biotechnology. Gene therapies are used to correct genetic abnormalities by introducing genetic material at a cellular level and can ...

Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have developed a gene-editing treatment for prion disease that extends lifespan by about 50 percent in a mouse model of the fatal ...

Researchers have developed a gene-editing treatment for prion disease that extends lifespan by about 50 percent in a mouse model of the fatal neurodegenerative condition. The treatment ...
