In a high-security lab in Italy, scientists have launched a large-scale experiment to genetically modify mosquitoes with an end goal of potentially eradicating malaria in Africa.
A Chinese scientist who engineered the first gene-edited babies may now face serious charges for fraudulent practices.
It's one of just a handful of successful human embryo gene-editing experiments that have been announced over the past two years.
A new genetic engineering technology could help fight malaria, but can it be used responsibly?
Gene editing has come further than ever before. That means we need to start thinking further ahead than ever before.
The trouble with putting too much weight in a bioethicist's opinion.
Basic research can seem wasteful, but politicians should resist the temptation to set science’s priorities.
