Cathy Tie (founder, Origin Genomics) and Prof. Jiang Xueqin (Predictive History) join me for a wide-open conversation on germline gene editing, the science, the ethics, and the geopolitics.
Cathy walks through why heritable gene correction at the embryo stage may solve delivery problems that plague adult gene therapies, what Origin Genomics is doing under US IRB oversight, and how newer tools like base and prime editors change the safety conversation.
Prof. Jiang zooms out: US 0-to-1 vs China 1-to-100, techno-utopianism, aging demographics, and why, from a game-theory lens, biotech may reshape power more than nuclear weapons or AI.
Controversial, fast-moving science. This episode is for education and discussion, not medical or legal advice.
