The earliest days after fertilization, once a sperm cell meets an egg, are shrouded in scientific mystery. The process of how a humble single cell becomes an organism fascinates scientists across ...

Professor Rashid Bashir and a research team at the Grainger College of Engineering, Urbana, Illinois have developed a novel ...

Scientists have found a way to study early embryonic development without real embryos. Using CRISPR, they programmed stem cells to self-organize into structures mimicking early embryos. The cells show ...

Bioengineering professor and The Grainger College of Engineering's Dean, Rashid Bashir, led a team of researchers in a ...

Targeted CRISPR lipid nanoparticles eliminated 50% of tumors in mice with head and neck cancer.

Antibiotic resistance is a global concern that threatens our ability to prevent and treat bacterial infections in humans and animals. To better monitor the emergence and spread of resistance, ...

However, the single CRISPR-based technique does not detect pathogens at low levels without a preamplification step. Bashir’s team created a CRISPR-based diagnostic test that bypasses that ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University utilized CRISPR to cut a single gene from cancer cells of head and neck tumors—and ...

A team of researchers has developed an advanced gene-based diagnostic technology that enables rapid and highly sensitive detection of multi-drug-resistant bacteria and other pathogens, even at ...

CRISPR libraries enable scientists to systematically investigate gene functions, identify novel drug targets, and develop personalized therapies.

ElevateBio will leverage artificial intelligence to expand and accelerate CRISPR discovery, design, and drug development for thousands of complex ...
