Nat Geo Feature: How the DNA Revolution is Changing Us

The August 2016 issue of National Geographic Magazine, entitled The DNA Revolution, focuses on the need for careful consideration, responsible decision-making, and effective regulation of CRISPR genomic engineering technology – a new tool that allows researchers to manipulate the genetic code of any organism. As this technology transforms global scientific research in biological applications ranging from human health to agriculture, important decisions must be made about how the risks and benefits of using this powerful technology will shape our future.
