CRISPR Crops: Food, Farms, and the Shape of Plants to Come

Where do our crops come from? How do we feed a growing population and engineer crops that are resilient to climate change?

IGI graduate student Evan Groover introduces CRISPR, and talks about how the rapid advance of gene-editing technologies could change the way we farm, the food we eat, and how we use plants, in this beginner-friendly video from Wonderfest.
