It already exists in the natural world. Now, thanks to breakthroughs in genetic engineering, scientists have created ...

Genetic engineering is moving from the lab bench into clinics, farms, and even family planning decisions, promising to change how we prevent disease, age, and define human potential. The same tools ...

Microplastics have become a hot topic in environmental science — and a reliable source of alarming headlines. A new study reports a nifty approach to removing them using genetically engineered ...

Despite the regulatory and funding roadblocks, Murray and fellow researcher Elizabeth Maga continue to work on a line of genetically engineered goats, which carry a human gene that produces elevated ...

Funded by the UB Provost, the new Center for Cell, Gene and Tissue Engineering (CGTE) will be led by SUNY Distinguished Professor Stelios Andreadis. “I am very happy to announce the launch of the Cell ...

The Canadian government's recent approval of the first gene-edited animal to enter the food system has reignited debates over ...

Influential inventions often combine existing tools in new ways. The iPhone, for instance, amalgamated the telephone, web browser and camera, among many other devices. The same is now possible in gene ...

Precision gene editing can be achieved by base editing, nucleotide editing, or editing of small or large gene fragments. The specific mechanisms include various DNA repair pathways. Many precision ...

Genetic engineering is moving faster than almost any other scientific field. New tools now allow researchers to edit DNA with ...

(Reuters) - Scientists in China have manipulated embryonic stem cells to create laboratory mice with two male parents that managed to live to adulthood - though with significant developmental ...

Gene editing is now reaching the mainstream, ushering in a new era of genetic manipulation. Traditionally, inserting or deleting entire genes, regulating their expression, and altering specific ...
