Scientists at the National Institutes of Health have identified new genetic risk factors for two types of non-Alzheimer's dementia. These findings were published in Cell Genomics and detail how researchers identified large-scale DNA changes, known as structural variants, by analyzing thousands of DNA samples.

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 MIT research team turned to a family of enzymes called integrases to meet their goal.
