Lab Budgets and Sources of Funding in 2017: The Market Outlook for the United States, Europe and Asia is the latest report from BioInformatics LLC. The report is based on a survey of more than 1,000 life scientists who answered a detailed questionnaire about their budget and spending plans for 2017. Suppliers of laboratory instrumentation […]
BioInformatics has become the preeminent leader in the market for commercial and VOC data, analysis and industry-wide opinions about the hottest topic in the life sciences: CRISPR/Cas9 technology. (See our complimentary report The CRISPR Toolbox.) In the 2016 Life Science Global Lab Funding & Budget Outlook, we polled members of The Science Advisory Board and asked: “What do […]
We recently conducted an in-depth survey of more than 500 scientists currently using, or planning to adopt, the remarkable technology CRISPR/Cas9. Based on user-submitted budget data and our estimate of the incidence in which CRISPR/Cas 9 is currently used in labs, we estimate the market for CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing products is $200 million. And the […]
This week we’ll be releasing the results of our survey of over 600 Scientists currently using, or planning to adopt, CRISPR/Cas9 on their research. Since the advent of molecular biology technology in the 1970s, there has been steady progress in the ability to alter, or edit, gene sequences at the genomic level. The recent development […]
We’re just a few weeks away from publishing our report on the fast growing market for CRISPR/Cas9 products. In the meantime, we’ve also been engaging with scientists on the ethical questions surround this exciting technology. Before the recent announcement from China that CRISPR had been used to modify human embryos, a slight majority favored such […]
Few in our industry would disagree with MIT’s Technology Review characterization of CRISPR/Cas9 as “the biggest biotech discovery of the century.” And yesterday’s revelation that Chinese scientists have already edited the genomes of human embryos has touched off yet another ethical debate as well as warnings that the findings show the technology is simply not […]
