#10- Gene editing CRISPR-Cas9, Coronavirus spilling from bats to humans, COVID-related brain effects

  • サマリー

  • On Episode #10, here are the main topics:

    1. The 2020 Nobel prize in Chemistry was awarded for the discovery of a genetic engineering technique. With all its benefits, the technique has some seriously concerned about its ethical implications.

    2. Studies suggest that coronavirus could lead to neurological illnesses

    3. New research reveals why coronavirus that once lived harmlessly in bats and other wildlife – has become uncontrollable once it jumped the species barrier and entered humans.
