But achieving that level of systems genetics experimentation will require raising and breeding lots of live elephants with different combinations of mammoth germline modifications. (medium.com)
The Harvard - based team, led by Dr. George Church, is currently using CRISPR genome engineering to copy - and - paste DNA from the mammoth genome into living elephant cell cultures (fibroblasts). (reviverestore.org)
The Harvard Woolly Mammoth Revival team headed by George Church (the Church Lab) is working to identify cold climate adapted alleles of the mammoth genome and edit them into living elephant cells. (reviverestore.org)
