A new study in the New England Journal of Medicine reports promising results from a CRISPR gene-editing therapy in children aged 5 to 11. The children had severe sickle cell disease or transfusion-dependent beta thalassaemia, both inherited blood disorders. HCA...
Supporting the translation of genomic results into clinical action InGeNA and HGSA are collaborating on a national project examining the presentation of therapeutic recommendations in somatic oncology next-generation sequencing reports. As precision oncology advances,...
InGeNA is delighted to host Dame Professor Sue Hill, Chief Scientific Officer for England and Senior Responsible Officer for Genomics in the NHS, during her visit to Australia from 12 to 16 October 2026. Dame Professor Sue Hill has played a leading role in...
The story of Rosie, an eight-year-old Staffy cross Shar Pei from Sydney whose owner used AI and genomic sequencing to design a personalised mRNA cancer vaccine, captured global attention in early 2026. It is a genuinely remarkable case. It is also widely misread, and...
A research team at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has done something that was not supposed to be possible: they have flipped the fundamental logic of CRISPR gene editing. Published in Nature Biotechnology this month, the work by Professor Hsing...
