About this deck
In one decade, gene editing went from Nobel-winning curiosity to FDA-approved cure. The next decade will decide what we are willing to do with the tools — and what we should refuse. Key sections include: Read. Write. Edit.; Three generations of editing; How a guide RNA finds a single base in 3 billion; What edits exist as medicine; The malaria question; The He Jiankui line; Beyond editing — designing genomes; Programmable life, in pieces; Cost of reading and writing DNA; Dual-use is the central problem.
