The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the development of CRISPR/Cas9, a method also known as "gene scissors," which enables researchers to better understand how human cells function and ...

The brain is often referred to as a "black box"—one that's difficult to peer inside and determine what's happening at any given moment. This is part of the reason why it's difficult to understand the ...

The CRISPR-Cas approach is a biotechnological technique that provides a fast mechanism to manipulate single genes in cells. Through this process genes can be precisely deleted, replaced or modified.

A team of researchers led by Professor Akitsu Hotta (Department of Clinical Application) developed a comprehensive framework ...

Researchers in Basel have created SEED/Harvest, a new CRISPR-based technique that tags proteins without leaving any genetic “scars.” By blending two powerful methods, it allows scientists to study ...

If genetic editing wasn't crazy enough for your reality, a recent breakthrough in CRISPR(Opens in a new window) technology has paved the way for editing entire gene networks in a single step. While ...

Discover the top CRISPR companies driving innovation in gene editing, from biotech pioneers to promising start-ups shaping the future of medicine and genetics.

Researchers from Kyoto University demonstrate how a dual CRISPR RNA method restored dystrophin protein function in induced pluripotent stem cells derived from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) ...

Antibiotic resistance is a global concern that threatens our ability to prevent and treat bacterial infections in humans and animals. To better monitor the emergence and spread of resistance, ...

CRISPRgenee is a new method that combines gene silencing and cutting to improve loss-of-function studies in human cells. (Nanowerk News) The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the ...
