New gene editing tool reduces errors by nicking DNA not cutting
As important as the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing tool has been, it has a relatively high error rate, which can introduce potentially harmful mutations. Researchers in Germany have now developed a more refined tool that reduces errors by nicking DNA instead of cutting it.

Researchers allegedly create a new 'controllable, reversible' gene-editing method in China
"Cas13 can degrade both target and non-target RNAs at random," making it difficult to design experiments and interpret results when using Cas13, the researchers explained on the CAS website. But "the CRISPR-based gene editing tool does not permanently change the genome, and the effects of editing are controllable, reversible, and safer," he added.

The ultra-selfish gene - Works in Progress
We now have the power to genetically modify entire species by inserting certain genes into them with brute force. Doing this to malaria-carrying mosquitoes could allow us to wipe out humanity's most deadly killer.

Gene Editing Can Change The Social Behavior of Animals in Unexpected Ways
The CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technique can be used to change genetic coding with great precision, and its uses include curing disease and fixing genetic faults. Now it's been used to change animal behavior - and the results are not what scientists

A Massive New Gene Editing Project Is Out to Crush Alzheimer's
When it comes to Alzheimer's versus science, science is on the losing side. Alzheimer's is cruel in the most insidious way. The disorder creeps up in some aging brains, gradually eating away at their ability to think and reason, whittling down their grasp on memories and reality.
