SCD gene therapy approaches using CRISPR, gene therapy, and base editing show different stem cell outcomes in a mouse study.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. William A. Haseltine, Ph.D., covers genomics and regenerative medicine Newly published research offers a novel technique to ...

Like other developing countries, Indonesia is facing a familiar dilemma: how to feed a growing population while protecting ...

Researchers have developed a method that lets them genetically modify each cell differently in animals. This allows them to study in a single experiment what used to require many animal experiments.

Some species of tardigrades are highly and unusually resilient to various extreme conditions fatal to most other forms of life. The genetic basis for these exceptional abilities remains elusive.

Advances in gene therapy have come a long way since the 1960s and 1970s, when scientists first conceptualized the idea of modifying genes in patients who suffered from debilitating congenital ...

Gene editing is a group of technologies that enable scientists to precisely alter an organism's DNA. These technologies allow for the addition, removal, or alteration of genetic material at specific ...

Scientific organizations recently called for a 10-year ban on human germline editing. But will we ever be ready? And how would we even know? Reading time 13 minutes In late May, several scientific ...

These modifications increase chromatin accessibility, influencing growth, differentiation, and ion transport, with contrasting effects on normal and colorectal cancer cells. Study: Short-chain fatty ...
