Two studies published in Nature Medicine June 11 contribute to a small body of literature suggesting cells edited with CRISPR-Cas9 may cause cancer. Here are five things to know about the studies and ...

In nature, the best-known CRISPR system, CRISPR-Cas9, cuts any RNA or DNA it recognizes as foreign, and thereby protects bacteria from viral attacks. Another CRISPR system, one that is relatively ...

When scientists discovered how bacteria protect themselves against viral invaders, called phages, in the early 2000s, little did they know they’d stumbled upon a revolutionary tool researchers could ...
