University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers have constructed a robot that uses machine learning to fully automate a complicated microinjection process used in genetic research. In their ...

Paul Berg, the Nobel Prize-winning biochemist whose ground-breaking experiments in gene-splicing reshaped cancer research and helped spawn the multibillion-dollar biotechnology industry, has died at ...

Genetic engineering uses enzymes to carefully alter genetic material. This line of study has led to hardier and healthier food crops, the mass production of insulin, and novel vaccines, and it’s all ...

Process Engineering encompasses the analysis, modeling, simulation, optimization, design, control and operation of process systems, from micro-sized systems to huge industrial facilities. Many ...

Over millennia, there has been a seamless continuum of technologies for genetic modification of plants, animals, and microorganisms, with progressive improvements in precision and predictability – a ...

Agriculture, from the outset, has been made possible by humans tweaking the genes of plants to make them grow faster, produce ...

Have you ever thought about how and why something was designed? Who was considered a “stakeholder” for the design? And what biases are baked within the process of designing something? These are some ...
