The Food and Drug Administration on Friday approved two gene therapies to treat sickle cell disease, one of the which is the first CRISPR/Cas9-based treatment to win regulatory approval in the US. The ...
In the ever-evolving realm of modern medicine, a once-distant dream to conquer disease through genetics has now inched closer to reality. Last Friday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved ...
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 ...
Doudna lab finds chromosome loss from CRISPR-Cas9 is common—and swapping steps is key to stopping it
When it comes to solving math problems, the order of operations matters (PEMDAS, from left to right!). That appears to be the case for engineering T cells with CRISPR-Cas9, too, as new research from ...
The gene editing tool known as CRISPR-Cas9 is changing what’s possible for treating a wide range of diseases caused by genetic mutations. But so far, attempts to use the technology to address ...
Researchers have now used a gene-drive system to suppress an important agricultural pest. Researchers have developed a "homing gene drive system" based on CRISPR/Cas9 that could be used to suppress ...
The University of Bayreuth's Biomaterials research group has, for the first time, successfully applied the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool to spiders. Following the genetic modification, the spiders ...
