CRISPR technology offers innovative solutions for pandemic preparedness, enhancing diagnostics, antiviral therapies, and ...
US biotech Excision BioTherapeutics has raised $60 million to test a potential HIV cure in the clinic, which would use CRISPR technology to snip out the viral code from human cells and tissues.
Tulane University researchers have developed a CRISPR-based test that diagnoses Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) - a ...
There are an estimated 300 CRISPR therapies in the development pipeline to treat diseases such as diabetes, HIV/AIDS and cancer. Most of these treatments are in the earliest stages of development.
Scientists are reporting the first use of the gene-editing tool CRISPR to try to cure a patient’s HIV infection by providing blood cells that were altered to resist the AIDS virus. The gene ...
Researchers have developed a CRISPR-based test that diagnoses Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) — a life-threatening ...
CRISPR is a technology that can be used to edit genes and, as such, will likely change the world. The essence of CRISPR is simple: it’s a way of finding a specific bit of DNA inside a cell.
