Nous avons tous appris en quelques semaines que les virus pouvaient évoluer en plusieurs variantes différentes, plus ou moins contagieuses ou létales. Les termes de variants anglais, ou sud-africain ou brésilien, sont entrés dans toutes nos conversations. Chaque jour, on apprend ainsi l’émergence d’un nouveau variant : californien, philippin, voire breton.

Dans chaque corps qu’il infecte, le virus du Covid-19 a le potentiel de muter. Il peut devenir plus mortel, plus transmissible ou plus résistant aux vaccins sur lesquels nous fondons tous tant d’espoir. Heureusement, la biologie du Sars-CoV-2 fait que de tels changements se produisent lentement et parviennent en général

Le variant du coronavirus, d’abord détecté au Royaume-Uni et se propageant dans le monde entier, semble être en train de développer une mutation dont les scientifiques craignent qu’elle puisse améliorer les capacités du virus et l’aider à échapper aux vaccins. Sommes-nous en train de découvrir un variant du variant anglais

Dans un communiqué publié ce 11 janvier, l’Inserm (Institut national de la santé et de la recherche médicale) cherche à calmer les inquiétudes sur le fameux variant anglais du coronavirus. Ce variant du SARS-CoV-2 (VUI 202012/01 renommé VOC 202012/01) qui a émergé de façon rapide depuis septembre depuis le sud-est

L’émergence au Royaume-Uni et en Afrique du Sud de deux nouveaux variants du Sars-CoV-2, plus contagieux selon les premières données, inquiète au plus haut point la communauté internationale. Le point sur ces deux mutations. Que sont ces variants ? Tous les virus mutent. Ces mutations sont des modifications qui interviennent

The Chinese twins born last year from embryos genetically modified by the "CRISPR" molecular scissors probably have unexpected mutations in their genome as a result of this manipulation. This information was revealed by an American journalist on December 3 after obtaining an unpublished version of the study detailing the experiment.

Currently, several new genetic modification techniques are being discussed to determine whether or not the products derived from them will be regulated as transgenic GMOs. This article by Eric Meunier of the journal inf'OGM allows us to understand some of the potential risks associated with the mere introduction of transgenic GMOs.

Since the 19th century, hydrogen has been the stuff of dreams thanks to its energy and environmental properties. It is seen as a possible replacement for hydrocarbons when their resources are exhausted. Its capacity to be produced and consumed locally thanks to small units based on renewable energy sources has led to the emergence of experiments, in particular by
