CRISPR genome editing is quickly revolutionizing biomedical research, but the new technology is not yet exact. The technique can inadvertently make excessive or unwanted changes in the genome and ...

Doctors harvest stem cells from the patient’s bone marrow and then send them off to a lab, where CRISPR is used to turn up the production of another, functional version of haemoglobin.

A new genetic technology called CRISPR may enable scientists to make permanent changes in a person's DNA. Here's everything you need to know: It's a revolutionary gene-editing technique that ...

CRISPR can also be used to make precise changes such as replacing faulty genes – true genome editing – but this is far more difficult. CRISPR-edited trees reduce the energy and water required ...
