SUMMARY:GES Colloquium - Dan Charles: Genetic Engineering and Journalism
DESCRIPTION:We’ll talk about some of the different ways that journalists have covered genetic engineering over the past several decades\, and the journalistic conventions and impulses that shape this coverage.

SUMMARY:AAGES Event: The Untold Stories of GMO Pioneers
DESCRIPTION:Together with the NC State Libraries Special Collections and Department of History\, GES is creating a video archive of oral histories to document for posterity the memories and papers of the pioneers of genetic engineering. In this process\, we are interviewing individuals from the first generation of researchers and regulators\, many of whom are still actively working in their fields. Agenda:5:30 – 5:45: Introduction and overview of AAGES project5:45 – 6:30: Keynote Speaker Dan Charles6:30 – 7:15: Panel Discussion 7:15 – 8:00: ReceptionOnline registration: https://ges.research.ncsu.edu/events/ages-gmo-pioneers/For more information\, please email sastauff@ncsu.eduAdditional Details TBD

SUMMARY:Science Cafe: CRISPR & the Ethics of Editing Genes
DESCRIPTION:http://naturalsciences.org/calendar/event/science-cafe-crispr-and-the-ethics-of-editing-genes/What if it were possible to genetically alter wild populations of “pest” animals so that they were either eliminated or unable to threaten rare and endangered species\, transmit disease\, or damage crops? Such new “gene drive” technologies may be possible to create with CRISPR and other advanced gene-editing tools. The speakers for this Café are part of an interdisciplinary project exploring potential genetic approaches to eliminating invasive mice from islands where they present a majorbiodiversity threat through their impacts on native flora and fauna. Theirwork raises questions that extend well beyond the strict technical hurdlesto ecological\, ethical and governance challenges.ABOUT OUR SPEAKERSJohn Godwin is a Professor of Biological Sciences at North Carolina StateUniversity where he focuses on behavior and reproductive biology in a range of species including sex-changing fish and\, most recently\, wild house mice. Jason Delborne is an Associate Professor in the Department of Forestryand Environmental Resources at North Carolina State University and a research leader in the Genetic Engineering and Society Center\, where he studiesthe interactions between policymakers\, scientists and the public particularly in the context of emerging biotechnologies.DETAILSFee: FreeCategories: Adults\, Discussions\, Lectures\, Science Cafes\, Teens
