Scientists and physicians can better assess precision genome editing technology using a new method made public today by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Significant amounts of time and resources ...

For the first time, scientists have found a way to efficiently and precisely remove genes from white blood cells of the immune system and to insert beneficial replacements, all in far less time than ...

Humanized mouse models are vital for studying human gene function, but fully replacing mouse genes with complete human ...

'Our new but simple method is far more effective and can now be applied to a much wider range of plant species than our original approach' Genetically modified organisms, also known as GMOs, have been ...

In a major step toward treating rare neurological diseases, scientists have used gene editing to correct mutations inside the brain of living mice with a single injection. This new approach, described ...

Chemists have developed an efficient skeletal editing method for frequently used heteroaromatic structures. The technique could serve as a means to chemically modify biologically active compounds.

Controversial Chinese scientist He Jiankui was punished when, in November 2018, he claimed to have used CRISPR gene editing technology to create a pair of HIV-resistant newborn twins. He now says ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University have developed a genetic editing method tailored to crop plants, which has influenced various traits in tomato plants, including the taste and shape of the fruit.

Researchers have genetically engineered the first mice that get a human-like form of COVID-19, according to a study published online November 1 in Nature. Led by researchers from NYU Grossman School ...
