ListenGene Editing + The CRISPR Curse
Gene editing technologies, including CRISPR, are being touted as solutions to everything from world hunger to climate change to curing a wide range of diseases. To what extent does the reality of these technologies match the narrative? Why are wealthy actors such as Bill Gates, as well as the WEF, really so enthusiastic about CRISPR? And what are the risks for the environment and human health? Dr. Michael Antoniou of King's College London + Dr. Claire Robinson of GMWatch join Dr. Michael Nevradakis to discuss these topics and more.
