Genetic medicines could treat certain diseases, however, the current delivery systems available—viral vectors and lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)—pose unique challenges for gene therapy applications. For ...
A brain structure called the amygdala, and its connections with another region, the prefrontal cortex, shape people’s experiences and social interactions. The discovery of a key molecular ...
The first human trial of insulin-producing cells that have been gene-edited to evade immune attack is a success so far. The cells have survived and produced insulin for a month after being ...
This complex process, known as gene expression, determines which proteins we make and whether we make them in the correct amounts, crucial work given that proteins play a role in virtually every a ...
