In the last few years, the term CRISPR has exploded on the global scene, and with it UC Berkeley professor Jennifer Doudna, one of the pioneers in the field, has emerged into the spotlight. From magazine covers, to news broadcasts, to social media, CRISPR is the rare scientific breakthrough that has captivated the interest of the general public. But what is CRISPR really? What are its implications now and into the future? What profound ethical questions are raised by this ability to so precisely and easily edit the genome? In a candid and far-ranging conversation with Dan Rather, Doudna leads viewers through a nuanced and captivating view of this new technology. And along the way she shares her own improbable journey into science and her lessons for others - especially young women - who want to follow in her footsteps.
About the speakers:
Jennifer Doudna is Professor of the Departments of Chemistry and of Molecular and Cell Biology at University of California, Berkeley and an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Early in her career, she studied the structure and mechanism of ribozymes (enzymatic RNA molecules) and RNA-protein complexes. Now her research focuses on understanding how RNA molecules control gene expression in bacteria and eukaryotic cells, through CRISPR-Cas9 and RNA-mediated mechanisms, respectively. For her outstanding scientific contributions, she was elected into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2002 and the National Academy of Sciences in 2003, and was awarded the 2015 Breakthrough Prize in the Life Sciences.

Dan Rather has a resume that reads like a history book. He has interviewed every American president since Eisenhower and personally covered almost every important global dateline of the last 60 years, from the Civil Rights Movement to Vietnam, to Watergate to the terrorist attacks of 9/11. Rather helped pioneer the very idea that television could be a place for news, and he has kept that spirit of innovation alive by constantly pushing the boundaries of what video storytelling could accomplish. His independent production company News and Guts specializes in high-quality non-fiction content across a range of traditional and digital distribution channels. He has a special interest in telling the stories of science. Learn more about Dan Rather’s production company here: www.newsandguts...
Dan Rather is absolutely fantastic. I don't want to take the spotlight off the scientist because she's amazing, as are all scientists in her 'class' but Dan Rather is indeed the very institution of interviewing if I coul put it that way. He just increases scientists' value - he's a creator of more value! Great work! Thank you!
Dr. Doudna.. Mr. Rather nice discussion. I enjoyed it. Thank you very much. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your story Dr. Doudna - basic biochemistry seems to have that effect on many of us :)
God bless U and thank U for your work. It could be a game changer in the way health care is provided. It's not a bandaid approach to fixing a problem. It actually fixes the problem. && U are an amazing very intelligent person. Thank U

Attention spans are woefully lacking in today's society. I'm envisioning tables in restaurants at which the children have their faces in their phones around the table. It is a very sad state of affairs.
The Nobel Prize has improved the statistics, somehow.
And here we are in 2021 with a vaccine developed with this technology and as Paul Harvey would say now we know the rest of the story. Or not!
This was awesome!!!
Thumbs up!!!
thank you doctor
i look up to you
Please consider joining our distinguished faculty and staff at Duke University Chemistry department, it would truly be an honor to host another Nobel Laureate in Chemistry as a fitting, worthy, truly inspiring Professor, Researcher, and ..
Cell like Atom in biochemistry

So they do not know do they that you reprogrammed their cells

So you are messing with how God put us together and think you can do it better ?
Another way to think of this is that God gave us the brains to be able to figure out ways to solve problems ie, cure diseases or better still, eliminate the propensity to contract the disease. Now that is truly miraculous!
I couldn't agree more on society Responsibility to Regulate ethical reasons as to where it would be used and why. The risks of gene editing as opposed to its benefits on suffering individuals of wĥich would be relief and hopeful. CRISPR Cas 9 has it's breakthroughs though a need of gradual application is important. Great interview Dan Rather and Jennifer Doudna.
How did she invent this when the Egyptians were gene splicing and editing back in the Stone Age and quite possibly even before. If I ever see her I would ask her, can she perform a human mummification!
Thank you Dr. Doudna for your discovery.

Thanks to the Human Nature documentary I'm here now. Have forgot about CRISPR until now. Thanks for piquing my interest again.
Great interview Dan. Crime only x views. Pan Dora's box. Woman first to view helix. And find the DNA mechanic.
