RNAi  in the news:

"The relatively new technology, known as RNA interference (RNAi), makes use of short snippets of genetic material that match—like a lock and key—a corresponding segment of a gene in the target. When these snippets enter a cell and attach to the corresponding segment, they can inhibit or block the action of the target gene."
