Gene hacking is coming and it could rewrite what it means to be human
For the first time, the tools to rewrite human biology are moving from speculative fiction into regulated clinics and ...
Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material—deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)—of an organism.
When the gene editing tool CRISPR-Cas9 rocketed to fame more than a decade ago, it transformed biotechnology. Faster, cheaper, and safer than previous methods, the tool helped scientists gain insight ...
Picture CRISPR-Cas9, a gene editing technology, as a GPS-guided scalpel: gRNA directs the Cas9 enzyme, a protein that cuts ...
Researchers at the University of Minnesota have completed a first-in-human clinical trial testing a CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technique to help the immune system fight advanced gastrointestinal (GI) ...

Inside the Human Gene Editing Boom Driven by CRISPR Reshaping Everything From Medicine to Food
A major medical milestone took place in May 2025, when doctors at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia used CRISPR-based gene editing to treat a child with a rare genetic disorder. Unlike earlier ...
NEW ORLEANS, LA—An investigational CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing therapy that targets angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3), which has a role in regulating lipid metabolism, appears to safely lower levels ...
What if a cup of coffee could help treat cancer? Researchers at the Texas A&M Health Institute of Biosciences and Technology ...
Immunotherapeutic strategies have made huge strides in cancer treatment for many solid tumors over the past decade. But the promising results have failed to make a large change in the treatment of ...
