From seedless blackberries to cancer therapies, CRISPR is transforming food production, healthcare and agriculture.

Urnov is a professor of molecular therapeutics at the University of California, Berkeley, and a director at its Innovative Genomics Institute. In May, news broke of a biomedical first: the on-demand ...

Scientists have improved a gene-editing technology that is now capable of inserting or substituting entire genes in the genome in human cells efficiently enough to be potentially useful for ...

Revolutions in gene therapy are rapidly changing the landscape of modern medicine. Revolutions in gene therapy are rapidly changing the landscape of modern medicine, forcing society and science alike ...

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 ...

Gene editing is now reaching the mainstream, ushering in a new era of genetic manipulation. Traditionally, inserting or deleting entire genes, regulating their expression, and altering specific ...

A group of scientists led by Dieter Egli has demonstrated base editing in human embryos. Base editing was shown to precisely edit embryonic DNA but also resulted in off-target edits and mosaicism.

Gene-editing is a handy tool for developing sophisticated medicines. A new CRISPR molecule can destroy cells that express specific signals. That could eventually create huge opportunities for new ...
