CRISPR therapies are no longer a pipe dream. As genome editing moves into the clinic, delivery is now the real challenge.

In her latest article, Dr. Connie Rich explores how delivery design shapes which CRISPR therapies reach patients safely and at scale.

New study from the Torkamaneh lab @ulaval.ca uses CRISPR knockouts to show how nitrogen fixation & root development are genetically linked in soybean.
CRISPR‐induced knockouts reveal a dual role for the soybean NFR5α gene in symbiotic nitrogen fixation and root hair development
Nitrogen fixation in soybeans, facilitated by symbiotic interactions with rhizobia, is a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. However, the efficiency of...
