Imperial scientists have genetically modified mosquitoes to stop malaria transmission! 🦟🔬 Just a small release of these mosquitoes could make entire populations malaria-resistant We invited @SkyNews to peek in our @transm0 insectary 🔽 news.sky.com/story/mosquito…
Nicolas Svetec, David Begun, and I wrote a review article about de novo genes. If you are interested in this topic please take a look at this final open-access version @AnnualReviews annualreviews.org/content/journa….

Like I said before, we humans are capable of incredible things.
I made a website. it's called "one million checkboxes dot com". it has one million checkboxes on it. checking a box checks it for everyone. that's it. have fun!
Out now in @NatureComms! We've discovered a programmable #seekRNA that can mediate the insertion of any cargo DNA into any target DNA sequence it seeks! This brings forth a new era of gene editing technology. nature.com/articles/s4146…
Ready for the first trial of the sterile insect technique against tiger mosquito on a Mediterranean Island, with the support of @fondaz_inf_act and in collaboration with Procida island municipality! Stay tuned!!!
