2016 Millennium Technology Prize - Directed evolution

Biochemical engineer Frances Arnold received the 2016 Millennium Technology Prize in recognition of her discoveries that launched the field of ‘directed evolution’, which mimics natural evolution to create new and better proteins in the laboratory. This technology uses the power of biology and evolution to solve many important problems, often replacing less efficient and sometimes harmful technologies. Thanks to directed evolution, sustainable development and clean technology become available in many areas of industry that no longer have to rely on non-renewable raw materials.

That stock footage had almost no relation to the content of the video lol

Very interesting

[@Jerem0y]

of course none of the negatives mentioned

Such us?
By the way i like your profile pic ^^

IYIn Sev well not every human has good morals and with tech well who's knows what one could want to do. As far as negatives in their techniques for directed evolution I'm not sure it kinda confuses me anyway I ain't no scientist

@@Jerem0y Youre a luddite that spent no time learning about this technology but have criticisms based on your fear of the unknown.
Yes, every technology has potential for misuse. It also has the potential to solve problems. Should we stop solving problems because the solutions might be misused?

@@markobabic487 @Marko Babic ok buddy whatever you say. Your claims about me are baseless with no evidence, anyways perhaps yes, we should. I'm open minded about anyones perspective of this kind of science but you dont even speak a perspective, perhaps you are angry or perhaps a shill or simply just uneducated. Lets hear your perspective then. Bio engineering has already done tons of human harm have you not heard of monsanto or toxic chemicals being manufactured by processes such as SynBio those are just examples of extreme genetic engineering. Of course those companys could pay billions for anykind of leading Bio engineering. My fear is not based on the unknown its based on the known facts thats theres already a lot of toxic Bio engineering being done by some of the biggest corporations on earth. Nice try though

Yes, there are no problems if you are brainwashed to believe so.
