DARPA to Genetically Engineer Humans by Adding a 47th Chromosome



Doesn't this remind you of Gattaca? DARPA, the Department of Defense’s research arm, has just put out a new solicitation for a project called, “Advanced Tools for Mammalian Genome Engineering” on the government’s Federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) site. This project isn’t just for engineering any mammal’s genome, however; it’s specifically for the bioengineering of humans. Ever hear the term ‘playing God’?
