Biotechnology & Human Performance
The bio-revolution of our midcentury offers radical solutions for Arctic challenges, from synthetic organisms remediating pollution to human augmentations for extreme conditions, all while a new "post-extinction economy" prizes genetic resources. How do we ethically govern these potent, dual-use technologies and ensure biosecurity when life itself is programmable?
