Genetic modification dates back to ancient times, when humans influenced genetics by selectively breeding organisms, according to an article by Gabriel Rangel, a public health scientist at Harvard ...

There are no guidelines on when to use genetic modification on humans, which brings up a debate on what circumstances warrant it. "Some people will agree that using genome editing to modify a ...

We have genetically modified specific genes in human cancer cells. Our goal with this CRIPSR-based research is to determine the genetic mechanisms by which tumors begin. Despite all our excitement ...

Those children will pass those genes on to their own children. It is the beginning of inheritable genetic modification in humans. Should we object to this? On what grounds? It is, after all ...

The Nanjing University-based team showed that this genetic material will bind to receptors in human liver cells and ... had nothing to do with genetically modified (GM) food, but it could have ...

He’s fate aside, a group of genetics researchers are now demanding stricter regulations on human genetic modification, begging their colleagues to join them in an agreement to avoid such work ...

They collected human embryos from a fertility clinic ... maybe even cancer with CRISPR. But the idea of genetic modification also sparked a sense of auspicious beginnings to a sort of world ...

There are roughly ten times as many bacteria cells in the human body ... (a piece of genetic code from a cold-causing rhinovirus was spliced into the polio virus genome). This modified polio ...
