[podcast] CAS9 and CRISPR Technology: Implications for Cosmetics?
Oct 25, 2017 | Rachel Grabenhofer with Stanley Qi, Ph.D., Stanford
"CRISPR, in my mind, is like a molecular GPS. . .People just type in some short array sequence, essentially an address, to find the target. Upon binding to the target, a pair of molecular scissors cuts the DNA and performs a repair to modify the DNA sequence."
Patent Pick: Delivering on mRNA's Promise
Oct 13, 2017
News about CRISPR and the Cas9 enzyme has permeated nearly every scientific—and even some consumer—communities. But there is one crucial area where these entities have not penetrated to any real appreciable level: the human body. A new patent may fix that.
Jump-starting Anti-aging, Healing and More
Sep 27, 2017
With the flip of a switch—er, chip, rather—skin cells can be reprogrammed as any cell type to restore function to aging or damaged tissue and organs. Research from Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and Ohio State College of Engineering explains.
Advanced Photodynamic Therapy Kills 'Blood Suckers'
Aug 29, 2017
By "blood suckers," Vanderbilt scientists mean bacteria like staph, which deplete the human blood of iron. Here, a new molecule is described that, when combined with phototherapy, can selectively kill off these and other bacteria—suggesting new anti-acne and other treatment potential.
The New Bionic Reality: Imprinted Wearables

Secrets of the Trees for Super Cosmetics?
Feb 3, 2017 | Rachel L. Grabenhofer, Managing Editor, Cosmetics & Toiletries
Trees are not the mute, woody giants we think them to be. They are actually quite chatty. What do talking trees have to do with cosmetics? I started to draw parallels between them our industry’s work on the microbiome, epigenetics and wellness cosmetics; even sustainability.
Hitting a Moving Target: Skin
