Last year, a ten-month-old baby in the US was the first person in the world to have their rare genetic disease effectively ...

DENVER, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CRISPR gene-editing, and related genome engineering technologies, are reshaping industries from medicine to materials, with breakthroughs in treating genetic ...

Melissa B. Davis uses CRISPR screening to better understand how cancer affects underrepresented populations and find new potential therapeutic targets.

If the first CRISPR decade was marked by a mad dash to evolve, engineer, and mine the bacterial universe for more and better genome-editing enzymes, so far the second seems to be all about three words ...

AI‑driven protein design creates potent anti‑CRISPR inhibitors that block Cas13 activity, offering a new potential tool for safer, more controlled gene editing.

CRISPR, or Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, is an advanced technology developed in 2012 that can be used to edit genes. It can be used to find specific DNA sequences inside ...

At the heart of this technology is the Cas9 protein, often likened to molecular scissors, capable of cutting strands of DNA at specific locations dictated by a single guide RNA. With this mechanism, ...

Last August, KJ Muldoon was born with a potentially fatal genetic disorder. Just six months later, he received a Crispr treatment designed just for him. Muldoon has a rare disorder known as CPS1 ...

Infection with the pathogenic yeast fungus Candida auris (C. auris) can wreak havoc on the health of hospital patients and residents of nursing homes, especially those who are already weakened by ...
