Everleaf & CRISPR
Manage episode 418756384 series 2910959
CRISPR! No, it’s nothing to do with crisps… What is it, you ask? Well, that’s what this week is all about.
We’re joined by Soren Hough, a writer and a scientist who completed a PhD in Biochemistry at Cambridge. He has been working with, and writing about, CRISPR since 2014 and is currently a Visiting Scientist in the DNA repair laboratory of Prof Sir Steve Jackson. So really there’s nobody better to answer: CRISPR: What is it, why is it both amazing and scary, and what does this new technological power mean for society?
Sit back, relax, grab a gin and get ready to have your mind boggled.
Cheers!
