Gene editing tools make it possible for us to manipulate the code of life. If we slightly modify the DNA of an orange we can obtain a tangerine. The old biology was used to observe stuff, the new biology can make it, it can redesign species. But what happens when we do it with human DNA? What happens when we decide to program cells? Renowned TED speaker Juan Enriquez gives us an outlook on the future of humankind in the post DNA-editing era and he explains the impact of new life-sciences on politics, business, technology, and society. Juan Enriquez is a life scientist, author, and futurist. He is the co-author of the book “Evolving ourselves: How Unnatural Selection and Nonrandom Mutation Are Shaping Life on Earth”. He is also the managing director of Excel Venture Management, a life sciences VC firm.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Я обнаружил поразительное сходство между лагерем и волей. Между заключенными и надзирателями… По обе стороны запретки расстилался единый и бездушный мир… Мы говорили на одном, приблатненном языке… Мы даже выглядели одинаково… Мы были очень похожи и даже – взаимозаменяемы. Почти любой заключенный годился на роль охранника. Почти любой надзиратель заслуживал тюрьмы.
