Cleo Abram on Instagram: "Huntington’s disease successfully treated for the first time ever. In this trial, scientists inserted a virus containing new DNA into the brain that helps neurons destroy dangerous proteins. Their data showed the treatment slowed the progression of the disease down by 75% - and this is just the start! For more optimistic science and tech stories, follow along. #science #geneediting #huntingtons #tech #medicine"

The Open Discovery Institute on Instagram: "Imagine culturing and genetically engineering human cells — no lab degree needed. With our Human Cell Kit, you’ll learn real protocols scientists use to study and modify human biology. Grow. Engineer. Discover. 🔗 Link in bio to start your journey."

Galaxies on Instagram: "Scientists have brought back dire wolves using ancient DNA, with the first born on October 1, 2024 — over 10,000 years after their extinction. The genome was reconstructed by Colossal from ancient DNA found in fossils, using AI tools to analyze the data and guide precise CRISPR edits. This was key in spotting complex mutations and filling in missing genetic gaps — something that would’ve been nearly impossible to do manually. The fossils date back 11,500 and 72,000 years.
