Important article from @gmwatch.bsky.social on a recent study highlighting the risks of outdoor genetic engineering and the potential impacts on non-target species—including humans
Coming to your neighbourhood soon? Seriously risky outdoor gene editing. Some scientists who argue for deregulation deny outdoor gene editing is possible. But patents and the scientific literature tell a very different story. gmwatch.org/en/106-news/...
