Grow a “mini-gut” from stem cells—fast. This episode maps the journey from pluripotent cells to functional intestinal organoids, covering key signals (Activin A, Wnt3a/R-spondin, EGF), culture formats (3D domes vs. monolayers), and core readouts (TEER, permeability, metabolism). We highlight use cases in disease modeling and drug testing.

GeneInCell ·

2025/11/30

Silicon is hitting its limits—and our data keeps exploding. In this episode, we explore DNA as a radical new archive: a medium with hyper-dense capacity and millennia-scale stability that doesn’t need power to preserve information. We unpack the workflow—encoding 1s and 0s into A, T, C, and G; writing short DNA oligos; and reading them back with sequencing plus robust error-correction.

CRISPR–Cas9 Variants for High-Fidelity Genome Editing

GeneInCell ·

2025/11/16

Explore the shift from standard Cas9 nuclease—which makes double-strand breaks—to precision tools like Cas9 nickases (single-strand “nicks”) and dead Cas9 (binding without cutting). We break down how these variants reduce off-target indels and enable safer editing and gene regulation (CRISPRi/a, base/prime editor scaffolds) for high-fidelity genome engineering.
