"A new Chinese gain of function study created chimeric coronaviruses that can infect human cells and kill mice (up to 100% mortality)."

"The viral infection [and all animal experiments] were performed in a BSL-2 laboratory(!)"

So claims a person on X (formerly Twitter), but following the link to the research paper would appear to support the claims.

Does new simply do what breeding and evolution have always done?

A new scientific publication clearly shows that it is not that simple – there are fundamental differences!

"For months, a small company in San Francisco has been pursuing a secretive project: the birth of a genetically engineered baby.

Backed by OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman and his husband, along with Coinbase co-founder and CEO Brian Armstrong, the startup—called Preventive—has been quietly preparing what would amount to a biological first. They are working toward creating a child born from an embryo edited to prevent a hereditary disease. In recent months, executives at the company privately said a couple with a genetic disease had been identified who was interested in participating, according to people familiar with the conversations.

Gene-editing technologies now in use for treatment after birth allow scientists to cut, edit and insert DNA, but using the process in sperm, eggs or embryos is far more controversial and has prompted calls by scientists for a global moratorium until the ethical and scientific questions get resolved. Editing genes in embryos with the intention of creating babies from them is banned in the U.S. and many countries.

Preventive has been searching for places to experiment where embryo editing is allowed, including the United Arab Emirates, according to correspondence reviewed by The Wall Street Journal."

Could an Australian banana prevent a global crop collapse?
By Jacinta Bowler

Australia's first genetically modified banana has been tweaked to protect it from a disease that's on the verge of wiping out crops around the world. Researchers hope it may be on our shelves by 2027.

It’s not every day you’ll find Greenpeace, NZ First, and Fonterra on the same side of an issue.

And when unlikely allies line up like this, it’s worth paying attention.

So what’s going on?
