Developing a drug to enhance the liver's ability to repair itself could eliminate the need for transplants
Researchers have created the world's first "synthetic embryos": they do not need sperm, eggs and fertilization. Inevitable ethical doubts.
The reprogramming of patients' pancreatic cells has brought important first results, allowing patients with diabetes to produce insulin again.
The first CRISPR gene editing application against thalassemia and other blood diseases will change the future of drug development.
