Researchers develop a single genome-editing strategy to treat multiple disorders caused by nonsense mutations, promising efficient and cost-effective therapies.

CD Bioparticles launches comprehensive OMV-Based Bacterial Vaccines Development services for infectious disease and ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny membrane-bound particles released by cells to transport proteins and other molecules to neighboring cells. Because of this natural delivery ability, EVs have ...

He Jiankui, a young Chinese scientist known to his American colleagues as JK, dreamed of remaking humanity by exploiting the emergent technology of gene editing. He had academic polish, and an ...

The rise of gene-edited embryos has raised a myriad of ethical questions. It involves altering DNA to prevent disease or even to choose specific traits using a method known as CRISPR. In 2018, Chinese ...

MIT scientists have found a way to make gene editing far safer and more accurate — a breakthrough that could reshape how we treat hundreds of genetic diseases. By fine-tuning the tiny molecular “tools ...

OGM was selected as a genome-wide, unbiased method to detect large genomic rearrangements and structural variants (SVs) with sensitivity to variant allele fractions (VAFs) as low as 5% to analyze ...

But at a global genome-editing summit, exciting trial results were tempered by safety and ethical concerns. This article is from The Checkup, MIT Technology Review's weekly biotech newsletter. To ...

CRISPR is being used in an experimental effort to eliminate the virus that causes AIDS. The gene-editing technology CRISPR has been used to change the genes of human babies, to modify animals, and to ...
