For decades, excessive, unscientific regulation has slowed innovation using molecular genetic engineering. Policymakers must awaken to the realization that regulations based on pseudoscience or ...

Human evolution has often been depicted as a process of adaptation, where natural selection and genetic changes drive species ...

Cathy Eckert was recently appointed chief science officer at the Center for Bioenergy Innovation (CBI) at Oak Ridge National ...

A pivotal study has shed light on the genetic factors that govern the ability of highbush blueberries to regenerate from shoots, a critical process for plant breeding and genetic engineering. By ...

Despite the regulatory and funding roadblocks, Murray and fellow researcher Elizabeth Maga continue to work on a line of genetically engineered goats, which carry a human gene that produces elevated ...

Genetic programming (GP) represents a class of evolutionary algorithms that automates the creation of computer programmes to solve complex problems. Coupled with symbolic regression (SR), which aims ...

Elsa and Dren playing hide-and-seek. If you had the tools to manipulate DNA and produce new hybrid species in order to obtain potentially life-saving drugs, would you do it? This question lies at the ...

In the 22nd century, manipulation of the human genome became commonplace. Techniques of genetic engineering advanced to the point where the rich could custom-build fetuses that grew into stronger, ...
