Shiny New Scissors in the CRISPR/Cas9 Toolbox for Advanced Genome Editing
The CRISPR/Cas9 toolbox has been expanded with fluorescent Cas9 and a dCas9 functionalized with a tag able to activate gene expression that can be transfected to cells directly as ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNP).
Carbon Pricing in Climate Policy: Seven Reasons
Carbon pricing is a recurrent theme in debates on climate policy. As there is much misunderstanding about the many reasons to implement a global carbon price, ideological resistance against it prospers.
A Silent Killer: Cancer Beware
Researchers have developed a controlled-release drug delivery system that uses focused ultrasound as an active induction method.
