📚What I Read This Week: “𝘙𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘕𝘦𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘢𝘶𝘯𝘢: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦, 𝘌𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘙𝘪𝘴𝘬𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘋𝘦-𝘌𝘹𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯” by Britt Wray, PhD 🧬🦣 This book offers a comprehensive overview of the science behind restoring extinct species, from cloning to CRISPR gene editing, and breaks down complex concepts into digestible insights for readers of all backgrounds 🧫🔬 She describes various de-extinction projects (though they’re all before Colossal Biosciences) and focuses heavily on the ethical and moral considerations of de-extinction. It was fascinating to see just how much the field has evolved since the book was published in 2017 (not too long ago!) It feels like Wray captures a moment when de-extinction was a bit more speculative, and comparing that to the progress that’s been made was really exciting. It was also notable to see many of the scientists who helped pioneer the field, and who continue to work within, featured in the book 👩🔬 For anyone curious about de-extinction, this book is an excellent starting point. It provides a balanced perspective that encourages informed discussion—a discussion I believe is crucial as we move forward in this groundbreaking work 🦤🌍 #DeExtinction #RiseOfTheNecrofauna #Books #Biotechnology #Bioethics #Conservation #Wildlife #Biodiversity #Nature

CRISPR is a groundbreaking tool in biotechnology that allows precise editing of genes. Its simplicity, accuracy, and efficiency have revolutionized genetic research and applications. By targeting specific DNA sequences, CRISPR can add, remove, or alter genetic material, enabling advancements in medicine, agriculture, and environmental science. It’s being used to develop therapies for genetic disorders, enhance crop resistance, and even tackle challenges like climate change. The flexibility of CRISPR opens doors to innovations in various fields, making it a key driver in the future of biotechnology and genetic engineering. #Biotechnology #Science #Research #biotech #bio #life #DNA #CRISPR #medicine #genes #genetic #therapies #applications

A newly discovered chimera gene, Booster, is unlocking new possibilities for addressing global food and energy challenges 🌍🧬   Researchers at the Center for Bioenergy Innovation at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have identified a gene that combines genetic material from three originally separated genes to supercharge photosynthesis. In field tests, poplar trees with Booster grew up to 37% taller with 88% more stem volume—and scientists saw similar results with different plants, indicating the potential for wider applicability to trigger higher crop yields for everything from bioenergy crops to food crops. https://lnkd.in/eChXe4qc

A great book finally in my hands! 😍 "The Emergence of Biotechnology", a book by Luigi Orsenigo, examines the series of events that led to the advent and initial growth of the biotechnological industry. This technological paradigm based on genetic engineering is studied as an evolutionary process driven by processes of collective learning and competition. The text focuses on how a highly complex research system was created and organised following the scientific discoveries in genetic engineering. This evergreen book is a must for all economists working on the dynamics of innovation and technological change! 🙂

Exciting biotech news! A cutting-edge method for synthesizing DNA may transform genetic engineering. Here's why it's important: 1.
