A gene borrowed from the naked mole rat, an animal famous for extraordinary longevity and disease resistance, helped mice ...

RNA therapeutics target translation rather than DNA, aiming to correct shared protein production errors. By enabling cells to ...

In a breakthrough study, scientists have transferred a courtship behavior from one species to another, triggering the recipient to perform this completely foreign act as if it was its own. While genes ...

Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a scalable, non-viral technology that efficiently delivers genetic material into human immune cells. The platform, called ...

Lexeo Therapeutics is teaming up with Big Pharma Johnson & Johnson's unit Abiomed to tap its Impella heart pump technology in search of a potentially safer and more effective route for cardiac genetic ...

Engineers at the University of Pennsylvania and Rice University have refined a technology for editing individual genetic "base pairs" to a new level of precision, opening the door to safer, more ...
