View 2020 Free Public Talks

In the midst of the ongoing tech boom in the Bay Area, the biotech industry gets less attention than social media and “sharing” unicorns.

What is going on with the push for “synthetic biology”? What are the implications for politics, manufacturing, medicine? Will the boundary between life and artifice persist?

How do embedded paradigms reflect deeper assumptions about the structure of modern life? Discuss and learn something new with Marcy Darnovsky, Pete Shanks, and Tito Jankowski.
