A Ph.D. student in biomolecular engineering at the University of California, Santa Cruz, has built a software program ...

Researchers used CRISPR to find a pair of genes that show strong potential as a new therapeutic target for uveal melanoma – a ...

The Byers Award recognizes outstanding research by faculty members in the middle of their careers. Martin Kampman’s honorary 2025 lecture is titled “A CRISPR approach to neurodegenerative diseases.” ...

New research has found a novel target with therapeutic potential for metastatic eye melanoma—an aggressive eye cancer—with ...

Cambridge-driven research has identified a novel target with therapeutic potential for metastatic eye melanoma — an ...

Researchers at McMaster University, Cleveland Clinic and Case Comprehensive Cancer Center have uncovered how a protein long ...

In 2020, Peer and his team were the first to use CRISPR to cut genes from cancer cells in mice in a cell-specific manner. This is the first time they have applied it to head and neck cancers. Peer ...

But new research shows that many of these CRISPR screening experiments rely on components, called CRISPR/Cas9 guides, that do not perform equally well in cells from people of all ancestries, which ...

As people age, their risk for lung cancer increases, so it makes sense to screen all former smokers regardless of when they quit, explained Kim Lori Sandler, MD, from Vanderbilt University Medical ...

Researchers at Duke University have adapted CRISPR technologies to enable high-throughput screening of gene function in human immune cells, and discovered that a single master regulator of the ...

This center aims to be world-leading in CRISPR screening, cancer models, vector design, and big data analysis. This collaboration helps identify novel targets and resistance mechanisms to create ...

Since 2016, CRISPR has been used in clinical trials to treat patients with blood cancer. More recent research has tested CRISPR gene edits on people with rare diseases caused by single gene mutations.
