The rise of gene-edited embryos has raised a myriad of ethical questions. It involves altering DNA to prevent disease or even to choose specific traits using a method known as CRISPR. In 2018, Chinese ...

Genetic engineering is moving from the lab bench into clinics, farms, and even family planning decisions, promising to change ...

The EU has agreed allow certain foods altered using genetic engineering techniques to be sold without special labeling under ...

Europe’s firewall against genetic modification gets a major crack under a new deal. Crops tailor-made using new gene-splicing techniques should face fewer regulations than genetically modified ...

Gene-edited crops are no safer than GMOs, and fast-tracking regulatory approval could trigger a costly backlash.

Researchers successfully implanted a genetically modified pig liver into a human, proving that such an organ can function for an extended period. The graft supported essential liver processes before ...

Humans have selectively bred animals and crops since the beginning of agriculture, but advances in biotechnology have provided genetic tools to select specific traits. First applied to animals in the ...

Genetically modified organisms that contain nucleic acid sequences associated with the pathogenicity of microorganisms controlled by 1C351.a to .c, 1C352, 1C354, or 1C360 Genetically modified ...

The cell and gene therapy CRO market presents growth opportunities driven by FDA-approved therapies, over 90 global approvals, and 3,500 trials across 16 therapeutic areas, primarily in North America.

Researchers have developed a way to improve crop quality without needing to create special genetically modified plants. The new technique relies on a spray that introduces bioactive molecules into ...

A committee-supported project or activity that has been completed and for which output dissemination has begun. Its committee has been disbanded and closeout procedures are underway. An ad hoc ...
