In this episode, we discuss the resurgence of He Jiankui on the Twitter trends, the research that made CRISPR a Nobel-worthy discovery, and the various reasons why scientists don't go around gene-editing human embryos to create super species.


Readings:

  • Scientist who gene-edited babies is back in lab and ‘proud’ of past work despite jailing
  • China to begin first in-human CRISPR trial next month
  • CRISPR genome editing gets 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
  • He Jiankui’s tweet
  • CCR5 is a suppressor for cortical plasticity and hippocampal learning and memory
