Part 11/12:
When asked about the role of bioengineering in addressing climate challenges, the speaker affirms its immense potential. While clean energy solutions remain vital, biotech innovations—like genome editing, reproductive technologies, and regenerative approaches—are integral to creating a sustainable planet teeming with biodiversity.
Although we are not yet at the “Moore's Law” inflection point for biotech, the integration of AI could catalyze accelerated breakthroughs. Technologies such as in vitro fertilization in human medicine exemplify how ethical, regulatory, and societal acceptance can evolve, paving the way for similar advancements in conservation and agriculture.
