“Now I’m going to the gym every day, doing cardio and weight lifting,” said Baptiste, the 20 year old recipient of a more precise gene editing protocol called base editing. Put ...

Beam is a pioneer of the base-editing approach to gene-editing, which can be used to convert one nucleotide base into another without cutting both strands of DNA, unlike other technologies like ...

A collaboration between scientists at the Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel (IOB) and Beam Therapeutics has resulted in a new base editing therapy for Stargardt disease ...

The first subject has now been given a dose of VERVE-101, in what is thought to be the first test in humans of an experimental CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technique known as base editing.

The treatment, which uses base editing to make a single-letter change in DNA, reduced levels of the disease-causing prion protein in the brain by as much as 60 percent. The work demonstrates that ...

The treatment, which uses base editing to make a single-letter change in DNA, reduced levels of the disease-causing prion protein in the brain by as much as 60%. There is currently no cure for ...

Since the initial development of CRISPR-Cas9, researchers have introduced more precise gene-editing techniques, notably base editing and prime editing. Base editing enables the direct conversion of ...

I’ve been reviewing software for PCMag since 2008, and I still get a kick out of seeing what's new in video and photo editing software, and how operating systems change over time. I was ...
