Today at 11:00am CDT we’ll be LIVE talking with Stuart Newman about how U.S. scientists have used genetic engineering to create a mouse-human organism, also known as a chimera. Apart from the “yuck” factor, what are the risks and ethical concerns of this kind of extreme science? Is it a public service or a public menace? Newman is a professor of cell biology + anatomy at New York Medical College in Valhalla, New York, and editor-in-chief of the journal Biological Theory + co-author of the book “Biotech Juggernaut.”
