The Two Sides of Gene Editing with Kevin Davies
Manage episode 435330626 series 2964286
Where should humans draw the line with gene editing? Is CRISPR the "holy grail" of science, or is editing human DNA ethical at all? Zachary and Emma speak with Kevin Davies, executive editor of The CRISPR Journal and author of "Editing Humanity." They discuss gene editing, specifically CRISPR, and its implications for mankind's future, the successes of gene editing for agriculture and treating sickle cell disease, and Chinese biophysicist He Jiankui's unlawful meddling in the DNA of three embryos, now kids living in China with unknown health effects.
What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
