Synthetic Biology’s Terrifying Potential – Walking Plants, Human Hybrids, Killer Bugs
What if you could sit down at your computer and create a new organism as easily as ordering a chess set on Amazon? While it may sound far fetched, the creation of computer generated artificial life is already being developed in labs by scientists around the world. Last year, Harvard geneticist George Church announced he is only a few years away from creating a hybrid woolly mammoth embryo. Once created, the embryo could be brought to life, creating the world’s first elephant-wooly mammoth hybrid with plans to eventually create and resurrect an animal extinct for over 3,000 years. Yet to call George Church a geneticist is an understatement. In fact, he is a synthetic biologist, or a DNA designer of the future. Synthetic Biology (or Synbio) isn’t something new, it’s been around for over half a century [Read more…] about Synthetic Biology’s Terrifying Potential – Walking Plants, Human Hybrids, Killer Bugs
