Have we created an operating system for life? How close are we to cloning humans, and what would that even look like?
You're in for a fascinating episode as the line between science and science fiction gets blurred. My guest is microbiologist and geneticist Andrew Hessel, the CEO and Founder of The Genome Project-Write, and author of "The Genesis Machine: Our Quest to Rewrite Life in the Age of Synthetic Biology."
In this episode we discuss:
➡️ How protein engineering has gone fully digital.
➡️ How DNA is a coding language that we can access.
➡️ Craig Ventner's work in transfecting a cell with a synthetic chromosome.
➡️ The reality of human cloning.
➡️ Stem cell banking and the future of medicine.
➡️ What immortality could really look like.
➡️ And more!
