This research team at the LSU AgCenter is racing against extreme weather disasters to advance genetic storage technology and ...

One objection to xenotransplantation is that it will require the large-scale breeding, raising and killing of genetically modified pigs. The pigs will need to be raised in designated pathogen-free ...

Should we genetically modify wild lions? Of course not, might be your instant response. But what if lions were being wiped out by a devastating disease introduced by people? What if the genetic change ...

University of Sheffield scientists explore how plants can rapidly adapt to climate change through natural genetic engineering, potentially revolutionising crop resilience Researchers at the University ...

The Cutting Edge of Industry: Applications of Genetic Engineering delves into the transformative role of genetic engineering across industries. It outlines the fundamental techniques and tools of ...

In a giant feat of genetic engineering, scientists have created bacteria that make proteins in a radically different way than all natural species do. By Carl Zimmer At the heart of all life is a code.

Rare genetic traits are features that are uncommon within the general population. They can lead to different observable features or to rare physical abilities. Rare genetic traits are typically ...

Genetic engineering has transformed medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology by allowing direct modification of DNA. While the benefits are tremendous, the ethics of genetic engineering raise ...

Timothy Hearn does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond ...

Collaborative research defines a novel approach to understanding how certain proteins called transcription factors determine which genetic programs will drive cell growth and maturation. The method, ...

Researchers in Japan have successfully used a nonviral piggyBac transposon system to introduce transgenes into cynomolgus monkeys, overcoming limitations of traditional virus-based methods. This ...
