Colossal Biosciences aims to de-extinct the woolly mammoth, thylacine, and dodo, with progress reported on the dodo project and the assembly of the most complete Tasmanian tiger genome.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS CHAOTIC,” says Ben Lamm, 43, CEO of Colossal Biosciences, a company with major ambitions—including the ...

The mice were created by Colossal Biosciences, which edits DNA for species conservation, and has been working to bring back the woolly mammoth since 2021.

The George Church–cofounded de-extinction company, Colossal Laboratories and Biosciences has announced that it has successfully engineered woolly mammoth hair traits into mice. The Colossal ...

The term de-extinction is inaccurate, but conservation is still the best way to achieve its stated goals. We need to save the ...

Colossal created the mice by modifying seven genes simultaneously and from information gathered from analysis of woolly, Columbian and steppe mammoth genomes that were up to 1.2 million years old.

Colossal Biosciences, known for its outlandish goal to resurrect the woolly mammoth by 2028, is claiming steady progress. Its evidence: genetically engineering mice to have mammoth-like fur.

Colossal has previously said it’s on track to introduce the first woolly mammoth calves in 2028. Skeptics argue that the huge sums of money invested in the project could be better spent elsewhere.

The Colossal Woolly Mouse, created by Colossal Biosciences, expresses multiple mammoth-identified traits relevant to cold adaptation and provides a platform for validation of genome engineering ...

Biotechnology start-up Colossal Biosciences Inc., which is using DNA and genomics in an attempt to re-introduce extinct animals, hopes to bring that tusked beast back in the world by late 2028.

Eriona Hysolli, PhD, head of biological sciences at Colossal Biosciences “In the past, a multitude of attempts to generate elephant iPSCs have not been fruitful. Elephants are a very special ...
