Charles Gersbach and his colleagues are pursuing promising CRISPR technologies focused on controlling gene activity rather ...

A research team led by geneticist Jeannie Lee at Harvard Medical School, cell biologist Jeanne Lawrence at UMass Chan Medical ...

For the millions of people living with genetic diseases like muscular dystrophy and inherited liver disorders, one of the ...

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

The last time The Lancet Microbe featured an Editorial on CRISPR was in November 2020, to mark that year’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry, jointly awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A Doudna for ...

A compact Cas12f nuclease shows high editing efficiency in human cells, with structural insights enabling an engineered variant potentially suited for future AAV‑compatible delivery.

A number of the world’s top scientists, policy experts and bio-ethicists met this week in Washington, DC to discuss the implications of human gene editing, and though the focus of the summit was ...

NIH-funded UT team and colleagues from Metagenomi Thereapeutics discovered highly efficient enzyme could enable targeted gene editing within the human body.

If CRISPR stays active too long, it could cut unintended parts of the genome. To reduce this risk, the researchers designed a self-inactivating CRISPR system. This means that CRISPR edits the gene and ...
