1: I like his way of thinking. It reminds me of the many thoughts/tangents that pass through my mind (and probably others) during introspective moments such as gazing out a glazed window on a long bus ride. 2: It's awesome that his wife also pursues his passion. Must be fun to wake up with a partner in crime by his side 3: So far synthetic bio seems thooper kewl. If anybody could share some thoughts and experiences about pursuing synthetic biology such as iGem, projects, or industrial/research experience with universities or companies like GInko, that would be kewlio.
For enabling all the children and young adults who I'm sure are thrilled to have had the privilege--usually reserved for those much older--of experiencing the joys of myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accidents, gliomas, and terminal hepatitis, we salute DARPA's mRNA platform.🎉
the most significant bit - is it a good decision? your conclusion that more improbability is good - seems to neglect conscious decision-making. do you believe that to be true? should we or should we not impart some conscious judgment?
MIT's synthetic biology course via edx.org brought me here! Great Lecture! If you are interested in the "hokey" worldview Endy presents in the beginning of the talk check out Permaculture. Bill Mollison also had obviously spent much time thinking on that problem of good decisions and the "framework" described by nature ;) I also like his use of a pinecone, heavy symbolism. As Endy states, "truly a state of the art piece of nanotechnology", appreciation of facts like this will lead us to a more expanded worldview which must proceed any great advancements in biotechnology. In other words we need to release what we know and reassess many discarded observations to continue.
As with every technology or scientific advancement....actually as with all the universe. ...there is a yin/yang duality to all we discover. synthetic biology will be used for great good and terrible evil....only history and hindsight will help guide us. It's fucking amazing and breathtakingly beautiful. ...I'm in awe of our scientists. as I say this I'm mindful that the dude that invented the lobotomy won a noble prize for his efforts....lol....mistakes happen.
Um, the bible is real, folks. You scientists might want to consider the author of life....and that there will be consequences to playing God. You may not care about the consequences to others, but you will pay your own consequences.

@@karlruv8332 Yes, it’s going to be awesome once our descendants DNA is tweaked to produce innately unthinking slaves, while their descendants DNA is tweaked to produce innately free-willed masters. There will be no more of us detestable worker bees transcending our station in life and joining the ranks of queen bees. How wonderful. We will all have our DNA-coded directives and happily pursue them. Our masters will no longer need to use whips and chains. Bring on the mRNA vaccines. Let’s do this!
"to transcend the industrialization of nature"
These few words are the very expression of madness.
IGEM is an amazing competition. Some of the greatest work is displayed there.

Beautiful ! Simply beautiful!
Excellent. Drew Endy is an inspiration.
When Drew enters the room, you know it's about to become interesting.

Superb talk and very stimulating. Thank you for sharing these ideas.
His viewpoint about life and its destiny is identical to a novel I read named Shantaram! I am so excited to find out!
Also, great speech!
Cutting funds will not reduce danger. It will only reduce protection.
8:35 sounds a lot like Covid-19. DARFA was intended in how doing this stuff could be used a a weapon.
A computer chip?? How about a fruit with all nutrients a human needs or something that could eradicate hunger
Great presentation by Drew endy!!
Thank you Angel for the great vibe massage last night... :D
Funny, in ufo fields, they speak about us "raising our vibrations" lol

All the sheep, seem to want to fcuk with nature.
Igem Is so cool cause there are no losers, since most likely the winner will benefit humanity :D
It's a "Brave New World."

I'm all for this just so long as I get a tree that can grow strips of cooked bacon.

And the Bible refers to Noah's "ARK" in terms of cubits.. D Wave type stuff around at that time? Seems so.
Um, the bible is real, folks. You scientists might want to consider the author of life....and that there will be consequences to playing God. You may not care about the consequences to others, but you will pay your own consequences.
A so called “tedtalk” for an audience of laughing sheep.
Where is this leading us to?
Idiots cut funds. We could already be immortal.
Why would you want to be immortal rather than transcend our human life form?! 🤦♂️

Haha the people at stanford always seem a bit quirky, even off. He reminds me of Dan Jurafsky who did some lectures on NLP. Excellent lectures those.
and this was brilliant too. wow! pretty inspiring stuff

Leave nature alone.
Biology Reboot post Covid anyone here in 2020.?
