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...

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

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!

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

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.

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...

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.

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,...

GM stands for genetically modified. So, GM crops are plants grown for food whose genes have been altered using genetic engineering. In some cases, the genes of other organisms have been inserted into the genome of the crop plant to...

* 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...

Do you like drinking milk or chatting with your friends? Well, you can enjoy those because of the evolution happened over the past million years, and we are still evolving. Let's find out what will we be like in the future with us!

Hank reveals two breakthroughs in the burgeoning science of xenotransplantation, the transplant of tissues across species. By the end of it, you'll want to hug your nearest pig!

A team of scientists has genetically engineered pigs to be resistant to a widespread disease. Science can engineer an animal’s DNA to introduce desirable traits and get rid of negative traits or sickness. These pigs are not being raised...

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...

Tune in and join the conversation during the premiere of "CRISPR in Context: The New World of Human Genetic Engineering" on Friday, October 25th at 8pm EST. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION It’s happened. The first children genetically engineered...

This video discusses the use of recombinant DNA technology in the production of therapeutic proteins. It explains how genetic engineering allows for the mass production of safe and effective versions of proteins that the human body...

In part 4 of our special series on human ancestry and evolution, we look into the future. Now that genetic engineering tools like CRISPR allow us to edit our genes, how will that impact human evolution going forward? Are designer babies...
