GEN editors discuss both the news and history of DNA and genetic engineering. We present a recap of the 50th anniversary Asilomar conference, delving into some of the history from the 1975 Asilomar conference and relating to the current discussions around genetic engineering. Science has been under fire recently and many people attended the Stand Up for Science Rally at one of a few dozen locations across the United States. One of the speakers at the rally in Washington, DC, was former NIH director Francis Collins, MD, PhD, a key member of the Human Genome Project. We discuss some of his career in this episode.

Join GEN's managing editor Corinna Singleman, PhD, editor in chief John Sterling, and editorial director Kevin Davies for a discussion of DNA news and history.
