I can see the military weapons factory’s needing this asap.

[@brylanjacobs9139]

How does this differ from Cas9 and Restriction endonucleases? Does it work at the DNA or RNA level

[@markanderson7236]

It barely ever differs.

Five years. Okay. 2029. Thank god he didn't say the dreaded "ten years away" statement - close enough to be exciting, far enough away to not be held accountable.

Every breakthrough in science is eventually weaponized or found to have unintended consequences.

That’s an amazingly uninformed overgeneralization

[@user-tz3yx8dr1j]

@@juliahello6673 Actually, that's my observation as someone now retired from that field.

​@@user-tz3yx8dr1jNo. He's right. It is an amazingly uninformed overgeneralization.

[@ziad_jkhan]

It's because science is currently subjected to trade which leads to the dominance mindset. It needs to make way to the abundance mindset asap if we're not to risk self-destruction.

[@user-tz3yx8dr1j]

@@peopleofearth6250 It's difficult to fathom how much more informed must be a scientist commenting on science.

Informative and funny :)

How do you people think we were made? We are just rediscovering it ourselves

[@IEDAeconomics]

But you didn't say how this is different than crispr

[@moonwatch7963]

Don't know enough about genetics holistically to be making changes to them. Like making changes to software without considering how it affects the whole program.

Great...!!! 👌Heartiest congratulations...!!!💐💐💐💐👍👍👍

Considering we have junk dna we should tap into that dna and rebuild ourselves

Aussie scientist doesn't sound very australian. Two man team? Sure makes you leading in genetics ^^.
Just remember as this tool now makes gene editing so much easier, the failures or the intended miss-constructions also go onto your balance sheet, right?

I can use this at home to create anything i want, depends on how ambitious i am... doesn't it... you don't want people like me to have this tech, seriously.

If the genome is a mnemonic notebook of how the previous generations solved problems you just found a way to mess with this memory system. Congratulations! Probably the aliens toyed also with theirs and went extinct.

@@youknowme1475 I merely wanted to express the fact that they didn’t say anything new as far as I’m concerned. And the way they convey the message is laughable… but hey these are just my opinions… everybody has their own
