The development of gene editing tools, which enable the specific targeting and correction of mutations, hold the promise of allowing us to correct those mutations that cause genetic diseases. However, ...

This spring term, Sara Yacoubian and Karen Shollenberger, two MS students in the Department of Communication in the College of Arts and Sciences, each partnered with PhD students in Drexel’s science ...

Researchers have successfully develop single-atom editing technology that maximizes drug efficacy. In pioneering drug development, the new technology that enables the easy and rapid editing of key ...

A team of Chinese scientists has used gene therapy to correct a mutation that caused mice to exhibit autistic behaviors like hyperactivity, repetitive self-grooming, and abnormal social interactions.

Designer babies may sound like science fiction, but they’re becoming increasingly possible as gene editing technology to treat and prevent genetic diseases evolves. How scientists should use it is a ...
