"Scientists and biotechnology companies are developing what could become the next powerful weapon in the war on pests - one that harnesses a Nobel Prize-winning discovery to kill insects and pathogens by disabling their genes."
"A copy of Vincent van Gogh's ear grown using genetic material from one of the Dutch artist's relatives has gone on display at a German museum.
Artist Diemut Strebe made the replica using living cells from Lieuwe van Gogh, the great-great-grandson of Vincent's brother Theo.
The cells were then shaped using a 3D printer to resemble the ear Van Gogh is to said to have cut off in 1888.
The exhibit at the Centre for Art and Media in Karlsruhe runs until 6 July."
