Gene Editing

By using a tool known as CRISPR-Cas9, scientists may be able to identify corals that are genetically predisposed to survive as the climate changes around them.

Researchers think this trial could be "the real beginning of gene therapy."

Is CRISPR the miracle we've been hoping for to treat genetic brain diseases?

Using CRISPR, scientists created pigs with a quarter less body fat.

Nearly every field of biological sciences are being reimagined with CRISPR gene editing technology.

Dialysis for life or a genetically altered pig organ? That may be a choice for transplant patients in the future.

While the breakthrough has raised ethical concerns, we should also remember to celebrate advances in research.

Hundreds of genes mutated accidentally.

Pioneering gene editing research has put the U.K. at the forefront of the next scientific revolution—whether the rest of the world is ready for it or not.

The biggest study yet on the effect of body mass index on DNA reveals markers that could predict diabetes risk.

A series of studies using mice suggests that gene-editing may someday help people suffering from Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Parents who wish to enhance their offspring may be risk-averse to the unknown adverse consequences.
