Expanding upon the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system, researchers at MIT have designed a new technique called PASTE gene editing that can cut out defective genes and replace them with new genes in a safer and more efficient way. The PASTE gene editing technique was recently published in Nature Biotechnology.

Scientists at the University of Sydney have developed a gene-editing tool with greater accuracy and flexibility than CRISPR. SeekRNA uses a programmable ribonucleic acid (RNA) strand that can directly identify sites for insertion in genetic sequences, simplifying the editing process and reducing errors.
