The power of artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced computing has made it possible to design genetic sequences encoding ...

Researchers developed a topical gene therapy that corrects disease-causing mutations in human skin models using lipid ...

Gene-editing tools like CRISPR have unlocked new treatments for previously uncurable diseases. Now, researchers at the ...

Scientists at the Broad Institute and Mass General Brigham have built a generative AI model that creates short DNA segments that can control gene activity in specific cells. These sequences, called ...

One in every 10 people worldwide is impacted by a rare genetic disease but about 50% of them remain undiagnosed despite rapid increases in genetic technology and testing. Even when a person does have ...

Explore RNA interference methods, comparing siRNA and shRNA for gene knockdown, their mechanisms, advantages, and implications for molecular biology research.

"A lot of the existing gene-editing methods are restricted to one or two mutations, which leaves a lot of people behind," said Jesse Buffington, a graduate student at UT and co-author of a new paper ...

Complexities like these make it challenging to develop broadly applicable gene therapies for these disorders. Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin now have developed an improved method of ...

This breakthrough allows researchers to visualize where individual genes are active at the cellular level—information that has long been missing due to technical limitations in tea biology. By ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. In 1999, I defined regenerative medicine as the collection of interventions that restore tissues and organs damaged ...
