Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- Acclaimed cancer physician and author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Emperor of All Maladies, Siddhartha Mukherjee comes to CHF to discuss his most recent work, The Gene, a magnificent history of the gene and a response to the defining question of the future: What becomes of being human when we learn to “read” and “write” our own genetic information. Mukherjee interweaves science, social history, and the story of his own family to explain the powerful science of genetics and to grapple with the extraordinary influence of heredity on our lives, personalities, identities, and fates.
