Hood and various colleagues developed, amongst other instruments, an automated peptide sequencer roughly 100 times more sensitive than previous instruments and automated peptide and DNA synthesizers.

In recent years, advances in technology and a broader understanding of the human genome have allowed scientists to pinpoint which mutations confer to certain illnesses or characteristics. Non-medical ...

Around 2018–19, there was not a bigger science and ethical story than the debate over heritable human genome editing (HHGE) and the scandal over the “CRISPR babies.” The scientist ...
