The treatment, the first of its kind, was approved by the Food and Drug Administration on Thursday. “Our baby was born deaf, and now he can hear,” said one parent. By Gina Kolata The Food and Drug ...

An experimental gene therapy appears safe and highly effective for restoring hearing to people born with a rare form of deafness, researchers reported Wednesday. The study, the largest and longest to ...

Diet can leave lasting epigenetic marks that reshape gene expression, metabolic pathways, and disease susceptibility across the lifespan. These diet-driven molecular changes may create a form of ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act like molecular anchors. The work confirms these tags actively silence genes, ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to increased knowledge about gene regulation in human cells. How genes are turned on ...

Instead of requiring personalized gene edits for each patient, the new approach could create a standardized method to use for many diseases. By Pam Belluck and Carl Zimmer Gene-editing therapies offer ...
