Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and the University of Kent have used gene-editing technology to create female-only and male-only […]
Where there is a symptom there is hopefully a treatment. For example, if I have a headache, I reach straight […]
A recent study has demonstrated that the generation of functional ovarian follicle structures from mouse pluripotent stem cells in culture […]
French firm GenSight Biologics has published pioneering results showing the partial recovery of the first recipient that received their optogenetic […]
An investigational gene therapy for a rare, life-threatening inherited immunodeficiency disorder has been found to safely restore the immune systems […]
A recent paper, published in Science, explored the use of optic gene therapy to treat Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy. Surprisingly, […]
Complex brain disorders are highly heritable and largely polygenic. They arise from a complex combination of risk genes, found in […]
A proof-of-principle study has shown that template-free CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing can correct mutations that cause X-linked retinitis pigmentosa in mouse […]
