Fred Hutchinson researchers are testing a simple idea with surprisingly big potential: a special type of foam that makes gene therapy more efficient.

Scientists looked at multiple techniques used to measure the modified viruses deployed in some gene therapy research and treatments. One technique, known as SEC-MALS, was the most precise and accurate ...

The special properties of methylcellulose foam could make it a vehicle for bedside genetic engineering, according to a proof-of-principle study from bioengineers at Fred Hutch Cancer Center. In the ...

Over the last four years, Shriners Children’s St. Louis researchers have been working to develop a new way to prevent the effects of childhood obesity. Now, using gene therapy, Shriners Children’s St.

Researchers have found a promising new method for gene therapy. They successfully restarted inactive genes by bringing them closer to genetic switches on the DNA called enhancers. The intermediate ...

The new method is designed to focus specifically on pain-related signals, without interfering with normal activity in other parts of the brain. A new preclinical study has identified a gene therapy ap ...

Gene editing is already being used to treat a handful of rare genetic diseases; however, most therapies involve breaking or inactivating genes. Precisely fixing disease-causing mutations is far more ...

The company has made more than 50 deals for its proprietary technology as it looks forward to a potentially “transformative” ...

A Yale research team has created a new computer tool that can pinpoint when exactly genes turn on and off over time during brain development - a finding that may one day help doctors identify the ...

PHILADELPHIA and LONDON, Dec. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Minaris, a global cell and gene therapy (CGT) contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) and multimodality biosafety testing ...
