Conservation scientists are racing against time, as hundreds of animal and plant species edge closer to extinction each year ...

Chromosomes can vary in length and size, but they usually carry thousands of base pairs of DNA. While scientists have successfully edited the genomes of many creatures, most of those edits have been ...

Some conservation groups are calling for an effective ban on genetic modification, but others say these technologies are ...

We are now in the second great wave of the genetic revolution, not defined by reading the human code of life, but by rewriting it.

A new university spinout company is hoping to use synthetic biology to transform gene therapy manufacture. SynGenSys, from the University of Sheffield, plans to tap into engineering design principles ...

Genetic engineering uses enzymes to carefully alter genetic material. This line of study has led to hardier and healthier food crops, the mass production of insulin, and novel vaccines, and it’s all ...
