Scientists have discovered a new CRISPR mechanism with precise activity, expanding the potential applications of the existing CRISPR toolbox.

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 ...

“Through CRISPR RNA optimization, we achieved around 59% editing at the TTR locus in our in vitro experiments. In the mouse ...

This article examines how CRISPR moved beyond the lab in 2025, proving it can safely and effectively edit genes in patients and crops alike. It highlights a turning point where precision, automation, ...

The study used large-scale CRISPR gene-editing technology to systematically determine which genes are required as embryonic stem cells develop into brain cells.

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 ...

Scientists have used CRISPR to give the goldenberry a modern makeover, shrinking the plant by about a third and making it ...

I hate to break this to you, but every child is a genetic experiment – and nature doesn’t care if things go wrong. Our genomes are awful messes created by conflicting evolutionary forces, and every ...

Genomics and genome editing tools took center stage this year, from the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences honoring the development of base editing and prime editing to the controversy surrounding ...
