The first seminar of a series on Genome Editing will be given by John Parrington of the University of Oxford on Monday the 13th of March at 6.00 pm in the College lecture theatre. The seminar is entitled Genome Editing: its Promise for Society and Some Perils. The title encapsulates well the rational hope that these major scientific developments hold for mankind as well as the need for discussion within society concerning access and tregulation to the unprecedented capability of our species to manipulate its genome.
All College students are invited to attend this and the other seminars of this important series. Further details about J Parrington's seminar can be found on the dedicated seminar page. The poster of the seminar can be downloaded here. The seminar series on Genome Editing is organised jointly with the Department of Molecular Medicine and the Fondazione Adriano Buzzati-Traverso.
