Geneticist (and #StayTuned veteran) @eric_lander has a fascinating new podcast, @braveplanetpod, focused on the risks & rewards connected to new technological innovations: Deep Fakes, robots, algorithms, gene drives, and much more. Check it out: bravenewplanet.org

Interesting conversations that are worth a listen:
The link to @eric_lander's "Brave New Planet" podcasts involving smart discussions on "the most exciting and challenging scientific frontiers"--what's going on, what's ahead and what are the implications.

Fabulous new podcast from the brilliant scientist @eric_lander. It covers a series of technologies with enormous upsides but also downsides if we handle them wrong--from atmosphere modification to stop climate change to release gene-edited organisms into the wild.
In the upcoming episodes of #BraveNewPlanet, @eric_lander will explore frontiers of science and technology that are both exciting and challenging — but first, he is joined by Malcolm @Gladwell to help think about what exactly is at stake. Listen here: podcasts.pushkin.fm/bnp-malc…
