Artificial Life: Playing God, Making Money (Science) – DRH014
You were waiting for it! The second part of the Artificial Life topic.
We received some emails where we were asked to delay a bit the second episode so that some listeners could research a bit more about the topic.
Of course your opinions are very important to us and our main objective is to make people gte interested in science and find out more by themselves therefore we delayed the topic until now.
But without any more delays, here its.
Just like in the first episode we start setting up the tpic by describing what is artificial life or alife. Then we move to define Synthetic Biology which is an interdisciplinary field of research at the intersection between life sciences and engineering. Several key enabling technologies have been critical to the emergence of the field over the past decade.
We couldn't move on without mentioning the most famous innovator: Craig Venter. American biotechnologist, biochemist, geneticist, and entrepreneur. He is known for being one of the first to sequence the human genome and the first to transfect a cell with a synthetic genome.
