Researchers have identified structural 'footprints' that allow certain virus vectors reach the brain easily. Read More
UC Berkeley researchers report they have successfully used CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to delay symptoms and extend lifespan in mouse models of ALS. Read More
Max Planck researchers announce they have developed a new tool that can assist with precise genome editing in neurons. Read More
A new study in Molecular Therapy reveals gene immunotherapy is able to reverse symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis, and even prevent the disease from appearing in mice. Read More
Researchers have developed a novel technique that allows them to insert a gene into Perkinje cells in the adult brain. This approach, researchers say, could be used to change behavior and alter the function of brain circuits. Read More
Researchers use gene therapy to help restore hearing in mice down to the equivalent of being able to hear a whisper. Read More
Summary: Treatment allows mice who would normally be completely deaf to hear the equivalent of a loud conversation, researchers say.... Read More
A new study reports researchers have successfully modified a virus to be able to enter a mouse brain via the bloodstream and deliver genes to central nervous system cells. Read More
