OM DETTA AVSNITT
In this episode of Data Nation, we talk with leaders of Colossal, a company working to bring back extinct animals like the wooly mammoth, Tasmanian tiger (thylacine), and dodo bird. Colossal CEO Ben Lamm, Chief Science Officer Dr. Beth Shapiro, and Colossal Foundation President Matt James join us to explain how they use gene editing and advanced technology, like CRISPR, to try and make de-extinction possible. We will break down the science and talk about the big questions, like is it right to bring back extinct animals, how it might help the planet, and what it takes to fund such bold endeavors. You'll also hear how data-driven solutions are reshaping the future of conservation. Tune in to MIT's Data Nation to learn how science, ethics, and innovation come together in the wild work of de-extinction.
