Over the past few decades, biomedical researchers and neuroscientists have devised increasingly advanced techniques to study ...

A screening approach has been designed to measure efficiency and specificity for thousands of CRISPR-associated transposons ...

Identifying a few key genes within the vastness of the human genome was once akin to finding the proverbial needle in a haystack. But with the introduction of functional genomic screening, scientists ...

When COVID first hit, waiting days for laboratory results from an ultrasensitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test was commonplace. Faster tests usable by anyone, anywhere, later became widely ...

SAN DIEGO & BRISBANE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VedaBio, a pioneering biotechnology company transforming molecular detection, today announced a non-exclusive license agreement with Mammoth Biosciences, ...

The practice of genetic modification is as old as humanity. For thousands of years, humans have bred crops, livestock and even pets that possess desirable traits. This selective process, which alters ...

CRISPR has the power to correct genetic mutations, but current delivery methods are either unsafe or inefficient, keeping the technology from reaching its full medical potential. With the power to ...

A CRISPR mouth-swab test could transform TB screening with rapid, low-cost detection in low-resource and asymptomatic cases.

For years, the CRISPR-Cas9 genome technology has been reshaping genetic engineering, a precision tool to transform everything from agriculture to medicine. With its incredible efficiency, this ...

Natural systems such as CRISPR-associated transposons (CASTs) offer a targetable, one-step way to edit genomes. However, ...
