Gene editing using large insertions
Nature Biotechnology, Published online: 17 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41587-026-03319-6 While technologies for smaller gene edits, such as base editing, have already entered clinical trials, larger gene cargoes face different challenges, including low editing efficiencies, delivery vehicle size constraints, and possible immunogenicity. Programmable genome engineering systems using recombinases; transposases, including CRISPR-associated transposases (CASTs); genome writing systems; and retrotransposons promise different avenues for therapy, but each system has unique limitations. What are the most promising strategies to further develop these technologies, and which parameters need to be further improved to make them efficient and safe for therapy? We asked three experts in the field to share their thoughts on the challenges and opportunities.

Avoiding common failures in AI for health and medicine
Salaudeen et al. review common reliability failures in predictive and generative AI for healthcare, including erroneous model outputs, clinically unjustified performance differences, and deployment-time degradation. They examine why existing technical solutions fall short and argue for lifecycle-aware evaluation, continuous monitoring, and institutional governance.
