A strategy for cellular reprogramming involves using targeted genetic interventions to engineer a cell into a new state. The technique holds great promise in immunotherapy, for instance, where researchers could reprogram a patient’s T-cells so they are more potent cancer killers. Someday, the approach could also help identify life-saving cancer treatments or regenerative therapies that repair disease-ravaged organs. But the human body has about 20,000 genes, and a genetic perturbation could be on a combination of genes or on any of the over 1,000 transcription factors that regulate the genes. Because the search space is vast and genetic experiments are…

The figure comes from a poll of more than 1,000 landlords commissioned by housing charity Shelter, which was shared with The Guardian.  The survey found that seven out of ten landlords who own their rental properties outright increased rents on new or extended tenancies in the past 12 months as their average profits rose to more than £800 a month. According to the newspaper, this practice of “cashing in” has “triggered windfalls for hundreds of thousands of…

Naked Clam juveniles in petri dish. Credit: University of Plymouth Researchers hoping to rebrand a marine pest as a nutritious food have developed the world’s first system of farming shipworms, which they have renamed “Naked Clams.” These long, white saltwater clams are the world’s fastest-growing bivalve and can reach 30cm long in just six months. They do this by burrowing into waste wood and converting it into highly-nutritious protein. The researchers found that the levels of Vitamin B12 in the Naked Clams were higher than in most other bivalves—and almost twice the amount found in blue mussels. The report is…
