Futures in Biotech 25: From the Human Genome Project to Space Exploration with Dr. George Church (Part I)

Last program description:

Guest: Dr. George Church, Professor of Genetics and Director of the Center for Computational Genetics, Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, MA.

In this episode, we are very fortunate to have one of the most inventive and visionary geneticists of our time. Even early in his career, he showed signs of great scientific intuition as he played a key role in initiating and contributing to the Human Genome Project.

When Dr. Church agreed to be on the show, I knew that we would be talking extreme biotech - but I really, and I mean REALLY had no idea!!! And, since we only scratched the surface here, this will be Part I of II.
