Late last month, Anthropic claimed it had discovered a curious stretch of DNA in a virus called a bacteriophage that repeats ...

Even after Anthropic's claim, there is a long way to go before AI can reliably produce a CRISPR-like gene editing tool.

The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the development of CRISPR/Cas9, a method also known as "gene scissors," which enables researchers to better understand how human cells function and ...

Anthropic announced today that its Claude artificial intelligence (AI) system identified a previously unknown biological system in the DNA of viruses that infect bacteria. The press release is the ...

Experts at the company don't know what the newfound system does, so its potential utility in biology—if any—remains unclear. But the work marks a major advancement because the A.I. made this discovery ...

CRISPR Therapeutics has seen its share price under pressure in recent years, even as fresh clinical data like the planned ...

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins are core components of fast-evolving therapeutic gene editing tools. Scientists have used CRISPR ...

CRISPR, or Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, is an advanced technology developed in 2012 that can be used to edit genes. It can be used to find specific DNA sequences inside ...
