Traditional breeding and genetic modification methods have struggled to keep pace with the rapid evolution of plant viruses.

Scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a revolutionary gene-editing method using bacterial retrons ...

Researchers have identified molecular mechanisms behind age-related memory decline — and shown they can be reversed.

Both CRSP and NTLA are advancing in vivo gene editing therapies targeting large markets, with financial stability supporting ...

Some genetic disorders—such as cystic fibrosis, hemophilia and Tay Sachs disease—involve many mutations in a person's genome, ...

Because the new method can replace a large stretch of defective DNA with a healthy sequence, the same retron-based package can fix any combination of mutations within that stretch of DNA without ...
