There's a new Cas protein in town! The archaeal protein Cas14 is ~1/3 the size of Cas9, targets ssDNA, and indiscriminately cuts nearby ssDNA like Cas12. Fantastic collaborative work between @doudna_lab, @BanfieldLab, and @LBNLBioSci! https://t.co/mjKnryy3M9

CRISPR-Cas proteins aren’t just for genome editing- they’re becoming fast and sensitive diagnostic tools. Watch our latest #CRISPR whiteboard lesson video to learn how. You’ll see what makes certain Cas proteins so special! https://t.co/jgVxwG3Nz8

📺 Our executive director Jennifer Doudna (@doudna_lab) will be on #AmanpourPBS tonight! Check it out on @PBS and @cnni Amanpour and Company @AmanpourCoPBSTonight on #AmanpourPBS: @NicRobertsonCNN on Saudi Arabia, Carol Anderson on how the rules of voting are threatening democracy, Rosamund Pike and @LindseyHilsum on journalist Marie Colvin and Jennifer Doudna on gene editing tech. Check local listings. https://t.co/1ijIYVliTB

Fantastic talk today by @HankGreelyLSJU! What do unicorns, manta raybots, and HeLa cells have in common? Apparently more than we thought! #IGIseminar

It's “Meet an IGI Scientist” Monday! Read about Shaheen Kabir's path to the bench and watch a video describing how she is using CRISPRi to reveal which genes make cancer cells resistant to chemotherapy. https://t.co/IW9bcFpPlc

TONIGHT! “Hot Trends in Gene Therapy” panel discussion & networking event - ticket includes food/drinks. SF Women In Bio @SFWomenInBioJoin WIB-San Francisco on October 11th, 2018 for a panel discussion on the challenges and promise of using gene therapies in different indications, early development, clinical trials, and emerging trends.

[email protected] has invested $86 million in making somatic cell genome editing safe & effective. These grants from @ncats_nih_gov will set necessary standards, develop new tools, & establish a roadmap from bringing genome editing to the clinic! https://t.co/uCJTZM6B8z

The CEO of @Better_Seed, Andrew LeVigne, provides opening remarks at the IGI to start off a day of exciting talks. Today's meeting has attracted the academic and private sectors to discuss @UCBerkeley's agricultural research! @PMB_Berkeley @NatureAtCal
