We here at STAT cover CRISPR a lot. But it’s not every day we get to cover Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The Rock and the genome-editing technology meet in a new movie, “Rampage,” coming out Friday.

Scientists from Kolkata-based Bose Institute have created GlowCas9 -- a CRISPR protein that lights up while performing gene editing -- to help boost treatment of genetic diseases and cancer, said the ...

What if a heart attack and lifetime of statin drugs could be avoided with a one-time, two-hour infusion? Kiran Musunuru, a University of Pennsylvania cardiologist and leading gene-editing researcher, ...

Katie Pope Kopp went through round after round of chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant to treat her non-Hodgkin lymphoma. But nothing could beat it. "I went back to get a PET scan in May of 2020, ...

A new genome editing technology known as CRISPR has the potential to revolutionize the way scientists study diseases and genetics. “I think it’s a really useful tool for science, in fact it’s sort of ...

Researchers used CRISPR to change the number of chromosomes in Arabidopsis by fusing chromosome arms, reducing the genome from ten to eight chromosomes. The plants grew normally but showed reduced ...

If you have been wondering whether CRISPR Therapeutics at around $57 a share is a bargain or a bubble, you are not alone. This stock sits at the crossroads of high science and high expectations. The ...
