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.,

Johns Hopkins Researchers Identify CRISPR Dimmer

The Pharma Data

A naturally occurring system for tuning CRISPR-Cas9 expressing in bacteria, identified in a study published in Cell , could have implications for gene editing therapies as well. In bacteria with unaltered tracr-L, levels of CRISPR-related genes were low. The authors found that tracr-L redirects Cas9 in S.
