The latest development out of Colossal Biosciences — the genetic engineering company trying to bring animals back from extinction that Semafor has covered before — is that it has successfully grown ...

Sightings of the iconic species have been sparse since the early 20th century. The debate on whether the ivory-billed woodpecker is actually extinct may be ongoing, but a genetic engineering company ...

Genetic engineering, also known as genetic modification, is a set of technologies used to change the genetic makeup of cells, including the transfer of genes within and across species boundaries to ...

The genetic testing company 23andMe, once a pioneer in consumer DNA testing, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy amid financial struggles, a leadership shakeup and growing concerns about the security ...

Genetic engineering is considered one of the most sophisticated scientific tools for changing the genetic blueprint of a living organism according to our suitable design. This attention-seeking branch ...

Researchers describe minimal versatile genetic perturbation technology (mvGPT). Capable of precisely editing genes, activating gene expression and repressing genes all at the same time, the technology ...

Hordes of feral cats terrorizing native species in Australia could be combatted using a special type of genetic engineering, scientists have suggested. The feral cats now number over six million, and ...

A team from the University of Illinois has uncovered surprising evolutionary links between the genetic code and tiny protein fragments called dipeptides. By analyzing billions of dipeptide sequences ...
