Can we change the blueprints of life? This week we are exploring that question with genetic engineering. We’ll discuss how selective breeding can improve agricultural practices, and the potential DNA-level engineering could have on other...

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...

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.

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...

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!

This video is answering the question of what is genetic engineering.

Plant Reproduction Set: 5. This clip demonstrates two of the most common methods of genetic engineering in plants: biolistic transformation and gene splicing.

Science Kids Bringing Back Extinct Animals - Should We Just Because We Can

The video discusses the pros of genetic engineering, highlighting its potential benefits in areas such as environmental conservation, combating climate...

Scientists found a species of wheatgrass that is resistant to fungus, but how it became resistant is both surprising and unclear.

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.

Upon viewing the Traits and Heredity video series, students will be able to do the following: Define traits as the distinguishing characteristics of an organism. Describe heredity as the process of passing on traits from parents to...

This video provides an overview of genetic engineering, tracing its evolution from a concept in science fiction to a reality in modern science. The video discusses the impact of genetic engineering on precision medicine, gene therapy,...

This exciting program takes a glimpse at some of the amazing advances in modern genetics. Starting with the discovery of DNA, students will be exposed to advances such as the creation of recombinant DNA, vaccines, the human genome...

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....

Horizontal gene transfer might not be the flashiest of names, but animals are using it to create genetic hybrids without a human in sight. Like frogs rocking the DNA snippets of snakes, and fish sharing antifreeze superpowers.

This clip looks at some of the beneficial and harmful aspects of transgenic plants.

This exciting program takes a glimpse at some of the amazing advances in modern genetics. Starting with the discovery of DNA, students will be exposed to advances such as the creation of recombinant DNA, vaccines, the human genome...

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

The media have been talking about “genetically modified humans” and “designer babies.” But what they’re really talking about is germ-line engineering: a process that could help eliminate heritable diseases. So why do some scientists want...

* Viewer discretion advised. This video includes discussion of mature topics and may be inappropriate for some audiences. Pamela Ronald studies the genes that make plants more resistant to disease and stress. In an eye-opening talk, she...
