- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.พ. 2011
- J. Craig Venter is a biologist most known for his contributions, in 2001, of sequencing the first draft human genome and in 2007 for the first complete diploid human genome. In 2010 he and his team announced success in constructing the first synthetic bacterial cell. His present work focuses on creating synthetic biological organisms and applications of this work, and discovering genetic diversity in the world's oceans.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event: In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
On January 14, 2011, Caltech hosted TEDxCaltech, an exciting one-day event to honor Richard Feynman, Nobel Laureate, Caltech physics professor, iconoclast, visionary, and all-around "curious character." Visit TEDxCaltech.com for more details. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

this guy is my hero, i'm a biologist and have been following him for 15 years.
Did you go through a divorce too?
An absolute pioneer in the bio technology that will be so crucial for societies future
I am left speechless once again by Dr. Venter
All life is made of little bits of information, that have the intrinsic property to self-assemble. Absolutely fascinating!
This is absolutely IMPRESSIVE!
Thanks for vid. Can't imagine having this disliked. Who are these people?)
thanks for sharing
@Time4Truth no
After almost 4 billion years of evolution by natural selection, Craig and his team come along and change that forever. Natural selection will not be the main driving force for the evolution of future organisms. I believe that this might be the next (and probably the most important) step in the evolution of life on Earth, if we use this knowledge wisely.
Y didn't he win Nobel Prize? Given it is possibly the biggest achievement of mankind.
Pesquisas de total relevância para a humanidade contemporânea. Ao lado do grande Professor George Church, John Craig tem nos mostrado dia pós dia um novo futuro, trilhando caminhos geniais tendo como base a ciência para mudar o mundo.
é realmente grande Cientista e pesquisador esse john ainda tem muito a nos apresenta
congrats.
Finally TED is in HD..
Very Good!!
@dionstrezlecki
And that is a BEAUTIFUL thing!
I guess this explains why so many are dealing with a Candida overgrowth and serious digestive problems..
Remarkable.
Realmente muito interessante porém senti a falta do prof George Church, o que você fez com ele John? Etanol de novo?
Gilberto Alves
nao sabia que Dr. Craig falava portugues. ou talvez este seja apenas comentario retorico...
That make sense
I think it's more likely we will adapt to a much more agalmic economic structure
What you need to change a persons gene expression (rather than just one cell) is a delivery system that passes on the new code to every new cell produced. Usually that's a virus which has been implanted into a bacteria...and is then injected into the host organism.
The bacteria infects X number of cells, the virus replicates in the cells that are infected, they then kill the host cell by bursting and infect other cells etc...and passes on the new code.
Would the cell of a 50 yr old, having a cell retro engineered to be younger or healthier, then replaced be this new dna, be a cure for old age or degeneration? Would it solve the telemere problem?
not entirely, because other organelles are involved in aging and our inability to extend life indefinitely. the major one that comes to mind is the mitochondrion, which is present (several hundreds of them in each of our cells, on average) and is responsible for producing reactive oxidative compounds that wear and tear cellular processes. these cannot be ameliorated by consuming antioxidants, and are also responsible for some intracellular signalling!
How do you get the letter "O" in the genetic code? There is no "O" in the single letter list of the standard amino acids.
.... Never mind... I just looked it up, it's Pyrrolysine.
Nice
Would "center meres" be a cure for cancer or rejuvenation in people?
Robert Galletta they are not looking for cure
@AleifrLeifrson Sure, it's easy enough to inject molecules which are a part of cell signaling pathway leading to gene expression regulation. I am by no means an expert on the subject but I guess we will eventually be able to have complete control over gene expression sooner or later.
I've met several copies of this man. If anyone else knows what I mean;
we need to talk.
X-MEN!!!
Think of the most Machiavellian world one could imagine...and that's where our knowledge will lead us.
Isn't that what we always do ?
14:00 design components of the future! No chance for any random unguided mutation!
Venter calls me a "Caltech Professor" in his talk. Just to set the record straight: I have held an academic appointment at Caltech since 2007, but I am not a professor. Mike Gottlieb
Humans have always been able to account for every possible thing that can go wrong, didn't you know?
They are bringing Walt Disney back to life in 2014
whats news on this topic? where is this project now? top secret?
google is your friend
15:@8 HE SAYS if we look forward for the next 50 years anything is possible? does that mean they can cure intersex people?? most intersex people have androgen insensitivity syndrome cause their cells does not rspond to androgen can this be cured atleast after many years?? let me know anyone pls!!
My hero
@terracottapie13 How about deactivating genes or activating dormant genes? That happens all the time in our bodies, so I don't see why we couldn't do it on purpose.
@AleifrLeifrson You are correct, we can't change DNA to affect a whole living person. A quickly replicating cell, like you describe, is basically cancer. The best we might be able to do to a living person is to change a large amount of adult stem cells, and as they will proliferate to a huge number of cells.
The
Nobel laureate A. Carrel determined in his experiments that the cell is immortal. Ages and dies are a result of natural wear
and tear. Researchers L. L. Woodruff, S.I. Metalnikov came to the same result.
Another Nobel laureate, founder of science gerontology, physiologist I.
Mechnikov also pointed to the natural, physiological mechanisms of aging and,
as a result, death. It is quite enough to know to begin the rejuvenation of old
cells and old people. There are methods of rejuvenation, proven by people and
confirmed by academic medicine. The human body has powerful recovery
mechanisms. They make a weak body athletic; they can make the old body young
and beautiful. But aging researchers ignore these mechanisms. Therefore, old
age and death still kill people.
Subtitles are terrible :D
watch Hans Rosling's talk Religions and babies
So You are telling me there is a chance .... Of Cat girls !!!!
@lordjavathe3rd I'm pretty sure we can't change our DNA. We can probably change the DNA in a single cell, but I'm pretty sure that's not going to change much. But who knows, maybe if you change the DNA of a cell, if it replicates fast enough, maybe it can take over. Anyways, I'm no expert either...
i wonder if some of our code is quotes from some alien (super) beings (:

@EuropeanGuy87 I do not believe, for example, making designer babies is as appealing to people as heroin and the technology involved will be vastly more difficult to acquire compared to making heroin. Which means at worst designer babies will be made on a much smaller scale. Will that really be such a bad thing compared to letting millions of people suffer because of genetic diseases?

What did The Pope say to that? Does anybody know?
Probably asked to have his email put on there too
@EuropeanGuy87 There are definitely areas deserving ethical consideration within modern biotechnology. As our ability improves we will have to tread more carefully. However saying "not normal=bad" is committing the naturalistic fallacy and not a valid argument. Should we "let nature take it's course" concerning diseases? To me one of the most exciting possibilities of being able to control genetics is to give people with genetic diseases a chance to have a normal life, is this unethical to you?
@EuropeanGuy87 Would you neglect treating a suffering person because the world is overpopulated? I do not see the logic behind that. Overpopulation can probably be solved with a combination of technological advancements allowing us to sustain a greater population (such as maximizing food production and space exploration) and cultural advancements leading to people having fewer children (many western countries have reached the point where only immigration increases the population.
I'll bet the robots crack the mysteries of life, before life cracks the mystery of robots.
Okay...and ?
Lol thank you. That is where I am. Seems like a leap from "I spent more than a quarter of my life making a virus to hijack another cell into eating its own DNA so I could insert the minimum self replicating code with a code (so meta) in it that doesn't make any functional proteins but does have a misquote and an email address" to "we can make anything imaginable."
and in 2019 someone designed a virus and started a pandemic...

@EuropeanGuy87
Say What? So we should be eating grain in its natural form of 15,000 years ago? We'd get maybe 20 bushels per acre. Man has toyed with and modified crops and beasts since the beginning of civilization. Going to the genetic level is the same thing, only more precise. As for mistakes, just look at "Purebread" dogs and other inbread mistakes. But you won't count these.
@EuropeanGuy87 Also, who are the "they" you are talking about? Anyhow, I suppose "they" are people who'll have to follow whatever laws democratic societies decide on. And in my experience a vast majority are against "designer babies" meaning it will not be legal. The "very terrible things" you mention will also be illegal, or they probably won't be all that terrible.
Whoever came up with this title, "ARTIFICIAL LIFE CREATED- Game over for God?" needs to look up the definition of "create". lol. unless of course they were just trying to sound provocative to attract attention.
...So many words that I do not understand... :D
*Goes back to eating potato chips and playing smash bros*
hmmm super humans zombie apocalypse lol ive heard it all
It is what you make of it. You see potential for destruction, I see potential for a better life. It's all related to the "user" and his goal.
The idea of eating foods proven to be safe/wholesome over several generations is a good one. But it has nothing to do with being "natural". Everything touched by humanity is unnatural, including wheat, corn etc. "Organic" is just a word for "expensive". What does it mean? Noone knows if any of those 'organic' companies claiming GMO free food is actually GMO free cos noone checks. The best advice for healthy food is to eat something grown and made locally. All the rest is smoke and mirrors
I say that there are so many people that need work/income to assist in clearing and finding solutions to the many accumulated problems in a real and beneficial cooperation that the systems that keep civilization from true progress is the issue to change or adjust.
Checks and balances. Rules/laws and regulations. Trim down unneeded laws that actually lead to problems/corruption.Accountability when and where needed. true freedom is balanced by responsibility.
So there are many jobs but not enough ways to pay or assist everyone. That is a problem.
haha :P the mac PC joke.... does he know that people actualy does that all the time?
okokokok when will they make a cianobacteria that can live on mars and eat the junk we produce? aaaaaaaaaaaaaand that can be used as fuel
I am a biologist, I want to switch off the cancer genes if they find any
Joelleen Beangh cancer geans are important they are the set of geans that makes evolve just like viruses .
by the way there is a cure for cancer .
Joelleen Beangh also cure for infection (cheaper then antibiotics and more effective).
Knowledge is just a trap in the end. Its our stupid overpopulation that must be dealt with.
@EuropeanGuy87 As I can't imagine the scientific value of someone with a european mother and an arab father to people involved with human trafficking I have a hard time believing this to be true. There are tons of people with parents from different parts of the world. My mind will be changed if you provide sources.
15 religious people disagree with this video
I bet if you did even understand what he said in this video... just came here to left a garbage comment. I'm religious and I admire this guy's work in regard to science field. I'm a biotech student myself as a matter of fact. Stop being iggnorant.
Hamed H - Allow me to kindly ask you, what would your religion be, please? (i may say beforehand, Scientology wouldn't count as one)
I'm Muslim (Shia) and our religion is in favour of the science.
Hamed H - Thanks for answering, and my original comment may exclude your religion. Then, considering judeo-christian religions, God was the only creator of everything on Earth and they think humans couldn't either replicate God's creations, or try to explain how, in nature, various processess scientifically occur without needing a "creator".
I disagree because they want to create a computer instead of cancer cure and thumbs down from my side
Guy comes as a quack who seems to be shut of from humanity and to concerned with mysticism to take the world for what it is.
A weird mystic is your source of information as to why the guy who cracked the human genome is wrong....
You offer a weirdo plying his weirdness looking for 'donations'... lol...Okay that sounds erm.... well y'know how it sounds...It sounds like your the guy in the 1960's telling everyone how computers and technology are a bad idea.
Good luck with that...
well you listen to me on this one but crawl my ass on another ...don't get it .
You know Darwin spoke about how religion is embedded into the minds of children from a young age.
It is exactly the same thing with atheism. It is something you are taught.
You are in no way better, or even different...
AvntXardE buddhism isn't atheism.... it's buddhism...
>.>
I'm still wondering why atheism needs a word for not believing in something.
I don't believe in Chtuthlu, im not gonna go make a word up for it and start bothering everyone about it.
They believe in a higher power, and a lot of them worship Buddha like a god, which is by definition not atheistic it's theistic
AvntXardE Buddhism believes in a higher power it may be completely alien to those of an Abrahamic viewpoint, but they do believe in it
AvntXardE you should learn to understand the fundamentals of religion Buddhists believe in reincarnation, they believe in "the way" you say they have no god and that makes it an atheistic religion, but that is a fundamental misunderstanding of Buddhism and religion on general
I was not taught to be an atheist you fucking moron I chose to be because there are more things science can explain than your outdated bible.
This guy is so full of himself, it's hilarious. Crap, just money making crap.
Not building on evolution, but building on GODS existing creation, funny how they think we evolved from primordial alphabet soup! Please wake up, HELL is real , HEAVEN is real, JESUS is CREATOR, we must repent of our sins, and humble ourselves before God
BOO
if evolution wasn't true we would not have been able to accomplish this feat because when you build your work on false premises you can accomplish next to nothing. This achievement shows that the theory is true. If you disagree than you are left wondering how it is possible for him to have done this with while working under a "false theory"
Donald Hipp You truly are a complete idiot.
