Scientists are testing an entirely new way to fight heart disease: a gene-editing treatment that might offer a one-time fix for high cholesterol. It’s very early stage research, tried in only a few ...

Intima Bioscience, a clinical stage oncology company focused on curative intent in solid tumor cancer, today announced that ...

Ohalo Genetics, a US-based biotech startup, has developed the world's first high-yield hybrid true potato seeds (TPS), potentially transforming global potato farming.

Last year, a ten-month-old baby in the US was the first person in the world to have their rare genetic disease effectively cured through the use of CRISPR gene editing technology. But the rollout of ...

A new CRISPR-based one-off procedure that lowers "bad" cholesterol is expected to enter Phase I human trial in 2026. If successful, it could be the first approved genetic-silencing method on the ...

Crispr Therapeutics remains highly volatile, disconnected from near-term fundamentals, yet I see long-term value far above current levels. CRSP's business progress is slow, with pipeline milestones ...

Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material—deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)—of an organism. Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a progressive disorder involving amyloid ...

Aurora Therapeutics' first target is the rare inherited disease phenylketonuria, also known as PKU. Here at MIT Technology Review we’ve been writing about the gene-editing technology CRISPR since 2013 ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act like molecular anchors. The work confirms these tags actively silence genes, ...

As he addressed an audience of virologists from China, Australia, and Singapore at October’s Pandemic Research Alliance Symposium, Wei Zhao introduced an eye-catching idea. The gene-editing technology ...

Next year could be crucial for the company as sales for its only approved treatment could take off. CRISPR and Vertex first obtained approval for their gene-editing therapy in December 2023 for ...

Crops around the world are under pressure from high temperatures, unpredictable weather patterns and disease. Something must be done to protect them. Gene editing in agriculture can make crops more ...
