Japanese researchers led by Osaka University show that a Class 1 CRISPR gene editing system can achieve functional DNA repairs in human cells with no prominent off-target effects

Researchers at Göttingen University investigate relationship between our body size and human global calorie demand

The findings support previous research which suggested LED lights reduce bycatch of seabirds in gillnets by about 85 percent

Video shows single-cell organism making complex decisions

So far, the materials and processes involved in carbon capture and storage have been associated with significant negative side effects and high costs

New method unmasks all DNA changes caused by CRISPR in two days vs two months

Despite the growing recognition of the importance of the pH directly surrounding a cell as an indicator of cell health, techniques to measure it so far remain limited

Researchers at the University of Washington have found that warmer temperatures, at levels expected under most climate change projections, can lead to higher concentrations of arsenic in rice grains

The challenge with studying deep marine carbon is that it is a mixture of fresh material delivered from the surface and an aged component

The discovery of how a "beam" in human bone material handles a lifetime's worth of wear and tear could translate to better 3D-printed lightweight materials

Living cells are difficult to grow in the laboratory, so researchers sometimes work with synthetic cells, but these have had research limitations because they lack real cell characteristics
