How Potential Changes to the NIH Guidelines Could Impact IBC Review

WCG Clinical

Originally released in 1976, the NIH Guidelines for Research Involving Recombinant or Synthetic Nucleic Acid Molecules ( NIH Guidelines ) serve as the foundation of biosafety-focused oversight of research involving recombinant or synthetic nucleic acids (rsNA). Since then, however, certain genetic engineering technologies (e.g.,

New gene-editing tool is more accurate than CRISPR

Drug Discovery World

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.
