Will this NEW Scientific Breakthrough Make Us Immune to Everything?

Get started with 1 month free of Superhuman today, using my link: https://try.sprh.mn/briankeating Today's guest made bacteria immune to every virus that exists. This breakthrough could revolutionize medicine by creating virus proof cell therapies and potentially extending this protection to human cells. Also demonstrating that we can fundamentally rewrite the language of life itself, something that was previously thought impossible. George Church is a Harvard Medical School genetics professor and pioneer of synthetic biology. He's an entrepreneur who's found in multiple biotech companies and is known for pushing the boundaries between science fiction and reality. His team just did something that sounds like pure science fiction. They made living cells completely immune to every virus on Earth. That resistant immune, every single virus that tries to infect your cells just fails. The viruses can't evolve around it. Here's the wild part. They didn't add anything new. They just removed a few letter from the genetic alphabet. But George isn't stopping there. He wants to do this to human cells. He's talking about engineering astronauts for Mars missions, bringing back wooly mammoths, and maybe even, just maybe, making humans virus proof to the implications are staggering. The ethics are murky. And the timeline. Well, if church's track record tells us anything is happening far faster than we think. KEY TAKEAWAYS 00:00:00 – George Church’s team made cells immune to all viruses, a breakthrough for medicine 00:02:34 – Radiation resistance in organisms may come from DNA repair linked to desiccation 00:04:43 – Just a few genes can dramatically improve radiation resistance in bacteria 00:07:16 – Panspermia discussed, but harsh space conditions make it unlikely for frozen microbes 00:10:50 – Space travel may require biological modifications, not just physics solutions 00:14:19 – Church’s book Regenesis explores how synthetic biology can reinvent life 00:18:19 – Traits like height involve thousands of genes, yet single genes can still have huge effects 00:20:57 – Many once “science fiction” ideas, like genome sequencing and pig organs, are now real 00:23:20 – George Church and Craig Venter are more synergistic than competitive in genomics 00:27:17 – Rewriting genetic code creates virus-proof organisms by removing codons 00:35:36 – DNA can be used as ultra-dense, durable data storage, though reading/writing is slow 00:41:06 – Movies like Gattaca and Jurassic Park portray genetics fairly well, with minor flaws 00:44:03 – Gene therapies can be affordable and not limited to the wealthy, like COVID vaccines 00:46:44 – Induced pluripotent stem cells can generate any body cell for therapies 00:49:15 – “Mirror humans” (molecular mirror images) are possible in theory but ethically avoided 00:53:59 – Privacy concerns over genomes are moot since we shed DNA constantly . 00:56:09 – Gene editing aims to help endangered species adapt, not recreate exact extinct animals 01:00:30 – Making virus-proof humans is theoretically possible, but delivery across all cells is challenging 01:02:59 – Gene therapies may soon reverse aging at the cellular level 01:04:18 – Church avoids declaring things “impossible,” but admits to being overly optimistic on timelines ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get My NEW Book: Focus Like a Nobel Prize Winner: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FN8DH6SX?...
