SUMMARY:Cambridge Science Festival
DESCRIPTION:Gene editing technology gives us the power to edit the DNA of all living things. With this power comes important questions about if\, when\, where\, why\, and how to use this technology. \nMany people wonder about the risks and benefits of gene editing to modify human traits\, or applications in health\, agriculture\, and the environment. ‘Reprogrammed’ is an exhibit designed to engage attendees of all ages in thought and conversation about scientific\, ethical\, personal\, and social issues related to gene editing technology. \nMeet members of the Personal Genetics Education Project (pgEd) team from Harvard Medical School to play gene editing trivia and imagine your edited future with prompts on the statement scale!
