Advances in the gene-editing technology known as CRISPR-Cas9 over the past 15 years have yielded important new insights into the roles that specific genes play in many diseases. But to date this ...

Gene-editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9 have many uses in the area of food and agriculture. They can combat persistent drought and disease, and improve the colour and nutritional content of food ...

Most approved gene therapies today, including those involving CRISPR-Cas9, work their magic on cells removed from the body, after which the edited cells are returned to the patient. This technique is ...

In the never-ending quest to discover previously unknown CRISPR gene-editing systems, researchers have scoured microbes in everything from hot springs and peat bogs to poo and even yogurt. Now, thanks ...

When the gene editing tool CRISPR-Cas9 rocketed to fame more than a decade ago, it transformed biotechnology. Faster, cheaper, and safer than previous methods, the tool helped scientists gain insight ...

Scientists at the San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy (SR-Tiget), Milan, have found that gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 in combination with AAV6 vectors can trigger inflammatory and ...

Case Western Reserve researcher finds new use for revolutionary gene-splicing tool; electrochemical platform could lead to blood test for HPV, parvo or others The gene-editing tool CRISPR has been ...

CRISPR Therapeutics CRSP and Intellia Therapeutics NTLA are leading developers of therapies that utilize the Nobel Prize-winning CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology. While CRSP is the first and only ...

Instead of pulling cells out of the body, editing them, and putting them back in, scientists have now found a way to send CRISPR tools directly to specific cells inside living animals. By wrapping ...
