What would it mean to de-extinct a species? This work shows the promise of targeted editing of genes of known function in mice. After further testing, this technology may have a future place in ...

Scientists have been genetically engineering mice since the 1970s ... However, because Asian elephants are an endangered species, there will be “a lot of processes and red tape” before ...

In the team’s latest breakthrough, they’ve successfully created a healthy new species of mice whose genes they’ve sliced and diced to give them those precise attributes, even changing how ...

On Tuesday, the team behind the plan to bring mammoth-like animals back to the tundra announced the creation of what it is ...

The mice were created by Colossal Biosciences, which edits DNA for species conservation, and has been working to bring back the woolly mammoth since 2021.

Discovered in the McGraths Flat fossil site in New South Wales, Australia, the new fossil is a freshwater smelt belonging to the order Osmerifiromes, the first of its kind to be found in Australia.

More than one hundred million mice and rats are estimated to be used in medical experiments each year in the United States.

Researchers show that cordycepin, a compound from Cordyceps militaris, can boost endurance and protect brain function in mice ...

The study showed that mice reacting to unconscious peers acted instinctively in an emergency rather than out of curiosity.

Colossal said it focused on mice first to confirm if the process works before potentially moving on to edit the embryos of Asian elephants, the closest living relatives to woolly mammoths. However, ...
