Cancer cells excel at evading detection, but subtle chemical differences set them apart from healthy cells. Now, a team of ...

Most gene-editing tools are blind to context. Point them at a DNA sequence and they cut, whether that sequence sits inside a ...

CRISPR-Cas9 technology is used to knock out or modify DNA in research mice to study disease phenotypes and develop new treatments. CRISPR mice and rats are offered by Charles River, which uses genetic ...

Nobel Prize winner and CRISPR DNA-editing pioneer Jennifer A. Doudna, PhD, spoke Thursday at Fred Hutch Cancer Center in Seattle. Her lecture kicked off the President’s Seminar series, presented by ...

CRISPR was one of the most influential breakthroughs of the last decade, but it's still imperfect. While the gene editing tool is already helping people with genetic ailments, scientists are also ...

The study combines a deep learning model with CRISPR screens to control the expression of human genes in different ways -- such as flicking a light switch to shut them off completely or by using a ...

Lead author Kathleen A. Christie, PhD, postdoctoral researcher at Harvard Medical School; research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital. If you’ve ever spent time in a molecular biology lab, there ...

Now, scientists from Shenzhen University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong report promising advances in optical tweezing techniques that allow exquisite control over nanoscale biological ...
