Playing God: Has Science Crossed the Line?

Elimination of genetic defects and human enhancement. Saving endangered species and resurrecting extinct ones. Altering genetic code and DNA alphabet. Population genetic engineering and mutagenic chain reactions. Synthetic chromosomes and getting rid of genetic junk. Human cloning and children with three parents. Should we continue playing God or is it time to change the game?

This will be the topic of the lecture by Alexander Panchin, a candidate of biological sciences and science popularizer, which will take place in Tbilisi on September 14 at 7:00 PM at Terminal co-working space, located at 34 Irakli Abashidze Street.

The lecture will be held in Russian.
