In back-to-back studies published in Nature, researchers from Purdue University and Columbia University report a naturally evolved gene-editing system that can activate genes, offering an advantage ...

One year ago, a baby from Delaware County, Pennsylvania, became the first person in the world to receive a new revolutionary therapy at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "We didn't know that we ...

Casgevy is starting to build some serious sales momentum. CRISPR Therapeutics also has a deep pipeline and healthy funding. The stock requires patience, but there is a visible path to a bright future.

Gene editing is a numbers game. For any genetic tweaks to have notable impact, a sufficient number of targeted cells need to have the disease-causing gene deleted or replaced. Despite a growing ...

Last year’s federal agency layoffs, grant discontinuations, and university funding cuts led to numerous warnings of the disastrous impact on U.S. science research. Gretchen Goldman, PhD, from the ...

If you never eat grapefruit because you find them far too bitter, CRISPR varieties may be more to your taste. It has been shown that disabling one gene via gene editing can greatly reduce the level of ...

Crispr Therapeutics remains highly volatile, disconnected from near-term fundamentals, yet I see long-term value far above current levels. CRSP's business progress is slow, with pipeline milestones ...

Aurora Therapeutics, cofounded by Nobel Prize–winning scientist Jennifer Doudna, plans to use gene editing and a new FDA regulatory pathway to commercialize treatments for rare diseases. Last February ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act like molecular anchors. The work confirms these tags actively silence genes, ...

Crops around the world are under pressure from high temperatures, unpredictable weather patterns and disease. Something must be done to protect them. Gene editing in agriculture can make crops more ...

Discover how scientists are harnessing the power of CRISPR to precisely edit DNA, revolutionizing medicine and ethics as they rewrite the very code of life. Pixabay, PublicDomainPictures CRISPR ...

Northwestern scientists have developed a new nanostructure that supercharges CRISPR’s ability to safely and efficiently enter cells, potentially unlocking its full power to treat genetic diseases. By ...
