Kevin Davies - CRISPR for Dummies
Been going down a CRISPR rabbit hole lately and wanted to talk to someone that is up to date on the world's most powerful gene editing technology. Kevin Davies is an Oxford trained science journalist and the author of Editing Humanity: The CRISPR Revolution and the New Era of Genome Editing. CRISPR is an enzyme that is found in bacteria that scientists have repurposed to surgically replace pieces of DNA for a myriad of purposes, like curing Sickle Cell Disease. The future potential of this technology is incredible, cure for cancer? A replacement for antibiotics. Fixing food chains and even global warming. The technology is also rife with moral conundrums including difficulties in regulating experimentation and DIY biohacking. A fascinating conversation about bio-futurism, for better or worse.
