Advances in gene therapy have come a long way since the 1960s and 1970s, when scientists first conceptualized the idea of modifying genes in patients who suffered from debilitating congenital ...
Scientific organizations recently called for a 10-year ban on human germline editing. But will we ever be ready? And how would we even know? Reading time 13 minutes In late May, several scientific ...
Researchers have developed a method that lets them genetically modify each cell differently in animals. This allows them to study in a single experiment what used to require many animal experiments.
For some diseases, gene therapies offer the potential for lifelong disease amelioration and even cure. And these immensely important novel biotechnologies may be on the cusp of a boom. That is in part ...
