Genetic engineering allows us to move genes between different organisms and even different species. This has revolutionised agriculture and potentially saved millions of lived. Learn how it all works and why some people still don't like it.

Explore an intro to genetic engineering with The Amoeba Sisters. This video provides a general definition, introduces some biotechnology tools that can be used in genetic engineering, and discusses some related vocabulary (such as...

We've made some great strides in understanding the human genome, but before we can tackle genetic engineering, we have some "chicken and egg" problems to figure out. Hosted by: Hank Green

The video explains what genetic engineering is and how it is used in agriculture and medicine. It discusses the benefits and limitations of genetic engineering and considers some of the concerns that people have regarding its use. The...

This video is a lecture presentation on the process of genetic engineering. The presenter describes and discusses the steps involved in modifying the genome of a bacterium cell, and then evaluates some of the uses and...

This video explains the process of genetic engineering and discusses some of its applications in crop production and medicine. The process involves modifying the genome of an organism to introduce desirable characteristics, such as...

The video explains the process of genetic engineering using the example of insulin production. The video explains the various steps involved in isolating the required gene using enzymes and preparing an appropriate vector for the gene....

In this video we'll go in depth with genetic engineering; on how it is made and what is it used for! Keep watching to unravel the meaning of genetics!

Hank discusses some of the recent developments in synthetic biology, and why some advocacy groups are calling for a moratorium on those developments.

Good News for cancer therapy. Trials show genetic engineering of T-cells in the treatment of B-Cell Acute Lymphocitic Leukemia works.

Britain's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority has approved a study that may one day lead to designer babies, but that's not the plan right now. Dr. Kathy Niakan, a molecular biologist at the Francis Crick Institute in London,...

Paul Andersen explains the major procedures in molecular biology. He starts with a brief description of Taq polymerase extracted from the hot pools of Yellowstone Park. He then uses the analogy of the ransom note to explain each of the...

In a single year, there are 200-300 million cases of malaria and 50-100 million cases of dengue fever worldwide. So: Why haven't we found a way to effectively kill mosquitos yet? Hadyn Parry presents a fascinating solution: genetically...

We've been promised a future of chrome -- but what if the future is fleshy? asks biological designer Christina Agapakis. In this awe-inspiring talk, Agapakis details her work in synthetic biology -- a multidisciplinary area of research...

Paul Andersen continues his description of DNA and RNA. He begins with the structure of DNA and RNA and moves into the process of DNA Replication. He also describes the central dogma of biology explaining how DNA is transcribed to mRNA...

Genetic engineering | Genetics | Biology | FuseSchool In this video we'll go in depth with genetic engineering; on how it is made and what is it used for! Keep watching to unravel the meaning of genetics! CREDITS Animation & Design:...

It’s happened. The first children genetically engineered with the powerful DNA-editing tool called CRISPR-Cas9 have been born to a woman in China. Their altered genes will be passed to their children, and their children’s children. Join...

We've discussed some aspects of biotechnology already, but we have yet to discuss the promising field of synthetic biology. We are now able to manipulate biological organisms in ways that have technological applications, and one of the...

In the previous tutorial we outlined the basics regarding synthetic biology as applied to materials science. We can engineer microorganisms that will produce virtually any compound we want, via a series of reactions that are catalyzed...

In this biology playlist, we've learned so much about DNA and living organisms! Well, so has mankind over the past century, and oh, what we have done with this knowledge! It's pretty incredible when you stop and think about it. Let's go...

The world-changing promise of synthetic biology and gene editing has a dark side. In this far-seeing talk, author and entrepreneur Rob Reid reviews the risks of a world where more and more people have access to the tools and tech needed...

The video is a lecture presentation on genetic modification or genetic engineering, explaining the process of modifying an organism's genome to introduce desirable characteristics. The presenter describes the use of plasmids and viruses...

Selective breeding is also known as artificial selection. It is the process by which humans breed plants and animals for particular genetic characteristics. We have been doing this for thousands of years - ever since we first bred food...

Gene technology includes a range of activities that take advantage of genetic variation, modifying genes and transferring genes to new hosts. It includes genetic engineering and genetic testing. Gene technology is the term given to...
