"...our Promethean technologies, our moment of triumph could set us on a path to disaster. Of all the species that have ever lived, our single group of hominins now has the capacity to remake all of #biology."
#GeneEditing #4IR #Biotech
The new #vaccines are perfect early examples of this "godlike #technology." ... This approach will soon create a whole new platform for fighting cancers & other diseases, as well as for providing enhancements even more profound than #vaccination."
Human #Experiment w/ #mRNA
"This #transformation was already well on its way before the pandemic, but #COVID19 supercharged the #genetics #revolution—just as World War II massively accelerated electronics & space travel. This revolution will soon touch our lives ever more intimately."

"We'll brew animal proteins from cell cultures to feed ourselves & fertilize crops with engineered bacteria. We'll [] store virtually unlimited amounts of #data as #geneticcode and, ultimately, recast our evolutionary trajectory as a species."

"The same #genetic tools used to fight #pathogens can be used to create more dangerous synthetic ones...
Powerful tools like #genedrives that can be used to end #Malaria could inadvertently crash entire #ecosystems."
#4IR #Biotech #Experiments #mRNA
"Genetic manipulations of pre-implanted #embryos could cross into dangerous human experimentation. In the face of biological complexity honed over billions of yrs of evolution, our hubris to manipulate complex systems we hardly understand could as much be our undoing..."

The #bioengineering #economy:
"National governments must invest heavily in laying the foundations for the bioengineering economy of the 21st century while building education systems that foster innovation and ensure a well-informed citizenry."

"The radical future unleashed by the #genetics & #biotechnology revolutions has already begun."
Author Jamie Metzl serves as a member of the World Health Organization's international advisory committee on human #genome editing.

"Transhumanists answer this concern by forecasting there will be #artificial #wombs within 20 years' time. This will possibly even eliminate the need for the #uterus altogether."
