A team of researchers at Karolinska Institutet has developed a novel tool for genetic research. The study, published in ...

Electroporation works well with cell lines that are refractive to other techniques, such as calcium phosphate–DNA coprecipitation. But as with other transfection methods, the optimal conditions ...

CRISPR screening methods can be used to systematically examine genes for their function in cells. "CRISPR is used to switch off a random gene in each cell," explains Schmid-Burgk. "We then enrich ...

Scientists around the world are already using the powerful new CRISPR technique to treat disease, modify plants and animals, and even create designer babies. Here's everything you need to know.
