Harder, Better, CRISPR, Stronger - a podcast by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni

The first known attempt at creating genetically modified human embryos in the United States has been carried out by a team of researchers in Portland, Oregon.

Anthony and Jeff discuss designer babies, and what this might mean for the future.
