Biochemist Jennifer Doudna, a faculty scientist at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, founder of the Innovative Genomics Institute, and a professor at UC Berkeley, has ...

Nobel Prize–winning biochemist Dr. Jennifer Doudna is cracking the code of nature to address big issues, using the tiniest parts of us. On Tuesday, UCSB Arts & Lectures and the Cancer Foundation of ...

Since discovering the technique, Doudna and Charpentier went their separate ways and began building on their finding — and just about every other genome lab in the world followed suit. There’s a rush ...

Victoria Gray spent 34 years battling the debilitating pain of sickle cell disease. Then she volunteered to be the world's first "prototype" for a CRISPR therapy, based on technology invented at UC ...

Enveloped viruses get their outer coat by budding from cells they've invaded. CRISPR-Cas9 researchers coopted this behavior to produce envelope-derived vehicles that encapsulate Cas9 proteins (dark ...

Jennifer Doudna says she is an “unlikely success story” because she grew up in a small town with no scientists in her family ...

Scientists in Jennifer Doudna’s lab at Gladstone Institutes and the Innovative Genomics Institute provide novel insights into nearly 70,000 lesser-known viral proteins that could eventually help in ...

Membrane-derived particles cloaked in membrane fragments can deliver CRISPR genome editing tools to specific cells for complex genome engineering inside the body. Scientists in the lab of Nobel Prize ...

Addressing the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy Annual Meeting in 2016, four years before being awarded a share of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for pioneering research in CRISPR, Jennifer ...

The U.S. Department of Energy plans to build a new flagship supercomputer at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The new machine will be ten times more powerful than the current supercomputer.

Instead of pulling cells out of the body, editing them, and putting them back in, scientists have now found a way to send CRISPR tools directly to specific cells inside living animals. By wrapping ...
