An ad hoc committee appointed by the National Academies to explore heritable genetic modifications of food animals. This committee will address methods for heritable genetic modifications and identify ...
Interestingly, scientists have been up to some weird stuff over the years, and thanks to them, people can now buy a ...
Researchers have developed a method that lets them genetically modify each cell differently in animals. This allows them to study in a single experiment what used to require many animal experiments.
Some Bt corn used for animal feed contains a gene for antibiotic resistance so that tracking can occur. What were they thinking!? Even if you aren’t a biologist, you know this can’t be good. What ...
Toward the goal of efficient editing of farm animals for genetic improvements, this study explores an upgraded form of nuclease PE (uPEn). Based on an initial demonstration of its success in editing ...
Spider silk—six times tougher than Kevlar and stronger than steel—has now been produced by an unexpected source. Spider silk is a biological protein fiber spun by spiders. Many of these fibers have ...

Terrifying images reveal what animals could look like by 2100 if gene-editing spirals out of control
As the power of gene editing becomes more advanced, ideas that once seemed like science fiction are rapidly becoming a possibility. Now, a leading expert on human gene engineering has warned of what ...
