Case Western Reserve University researchers combine novel chemical method with CRISPR gene-editing tools to target disease-specific versions of genetic code The gene-editing technique known as CRISPR ...
In its early weeks, an animal embryo undergoes an incredibly delicate and intricate transformation. Cells grow, divide their genetic material, and separate themselves into brain cells, heart cells, ...
Scientists have discovered a genetic process which could unlock new ways to treat a mysterious and deadly fungal infection ...
Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered how molecular "traffic controllers" in cells influence aging and cellular ...
Alternative splicing is a genetic process where different segments of genes are removed, and the remaining pieces are joined together during transcription to messenger RNA (mRNA). This mechanism ...
Biotechnology start-ups are often advised to think early about process design to avoid hiccups during scaleup. A clinical-stage gene-therapy developer has taken this approach to heart, saying they’ve ...
Polyplus, part of Sartorius, agreed to collaborate with MarkHerz, a Korean cell and gene therapy (CGT) CDMO, to develop new CGT efficiency standards focused on decreasing cost and increasing quality ...
With the FDA expecting to approve 10–20 Cell and Gene Therapies (CGTs) annually by 2025, it is evident that the field will continue to hold immense commercial and medical opportunities. To harness ...
A Stanford University biochemist who has greatly advanced human understanding of how cells copy themselves, and what controls the process, will receive the 2001 Welch Award tonight. Roger Kornberg, 54 ...
