Scientists from UC Davis Center for Surgical Bioengineering, the MIND Institute and UC Berkeley’s Murthy Lab are developing ...

Early tests show stem cells can be used to spark expression of a miniature version of the dystrophin protein. The combination of gene editing and patient-specific stem cells may offer a new ray of ...

Cancer stem cells are like zombies — even after a tumor is destroyed, they can keep coming back. These cells have an unlimited capacity to regenerate themselves, making more cancer stem cells and more ...

Beam Therapeutics’ experimental gene-editing therapy for sickle cell disease now has its first cut of patient data showing signs of treating the rare blood disorder in a way that could differentiate ...

When it comes to challenges in the genome editing space, all eyes are on delivery. Efficient editing of cells directly in an organism (rather than ex vivo) and targeting of relevant stem cells is ...

Mini-kidney organoids have now been grown in a laboratory by using genome editing to re-create human kidney disease in petri dishes. The achievement, believed to be the first of its kind, resulted ...

The development of gene editing tools, which enable the specific targeting and correction of mutations, hold the promise of allowing us to correct those mutations that cause genetic diseases. However, ...

Editas Medicine reports successful gene editing levels in stem cells, supporting potential treatment for sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia. Editas Medicine announced promising new data on May ...

So, you’re familiar with CRISPR as a gene-editing tool. You might have even seen Dwayne Johnson star in Rampage alongside a mutant albino gorilla fighting a bat-wolf. But you may still find yourself ...
