Scientists looked at multiple techniques used to measure the modified viruses deployed in some gene therapy research and treatments. One technique, known as SEC-MALS, was the most precise and accurate ...
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 ...
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 ...
Researchers have developed a new "color-coded" genetic method that makes it easy to distinguish male and female mosquitoes.
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 ...
Early results from 4,000 babies show that genome sequencing picks up many more serious health conditions than standard newborn screening and is favored by most parents. Early results from a study of ...
Scientists use CRISPR to create a Genetic Sexing Strain of mosquitoes. Male and female mosquitoes can now be separated easily ...
Breakthrough gene editing allows simple visual sex sorting of mosquitoes, revolutionizing control of dengue, Zika, and ...
Some gene therapy treatments use modified adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) like the one shown here to deliver therapeutic genetic material into a patient’s cells. In a finding with implications for one ...
