If you look at their patent carefully, especially if you have any
engineering
background or talent, you may decide that you see one or two points where the design is not perfectly adequate.
But what this gives us is the foresight to look at and analyze in scientific and
engineering
terms some of the most amazing behavior that the human eye just can't pick up, such as this manta shrimp trying to catch its prey, within about .3
An
engineering
college in Lima designed a giant advertising billboard that absorbs air humidity and converts it into purified water, generating over 90 liters of water every day.
But what are the real challenges of
engineering
these ants?
Powering them is one of the greater
engineering
challenges that we had to deal with, because powering a cell phone under a tree canopy, any sort of solar power under a tree canopy, was an as-yet-unsolved problem, and that's this unique solar panel design that you see here, which in fact is built also from recycled byproducts of an industrial process.
They got quite serious about the
engineering
of this.
The head of the
engineering
group and the infrastructure group at that time was a man named Bill Coughran.
In
engineering
reviews, Bill described his role as, "Injecting honesty into the process by driving debate."
Many people thought that the Hawaiian papaya was doomed, but then, a local Hawaiian, a plant pathologist named Dennis Gonsalves, decided to try to fight this disease using genetic
engineering.
Now, I've given you a couple examples of how genetic
engineering
can be used to fight pests and disease and to reduce the amount of insecticides.
My final example is an example where genetic
engineering
can be used to reduce malnutrition.
I explained the genetic engineering, the process of moving genes between species, has been used for more than 40 years in wines, in medicine, in plants, in cheeses.
After 20 years of careful study and rigorous peer review by thousands of independent scientists, every major scientific organization in the world has concluded that the crops currently on the market are safe to eat and that the process of genetic
engineering
is no more risky than older methods of genetic modification.
So we disconnect the ethernet cable to create an air gap, but again, like merely human hackers routinely transgress air gaps using social
engineering.
And bamboo model-making, it's an art, as well as some hardcore
engineering.
It's straightforward
engineering
away one gene after another.
I was impressed by, obviously, space and everything about it, but I was most impressed by the
engineering
that went into it.
But this is really a science talk, and it's really an
engineering
talk, and what was amazing to me about that experience is that Taber said, yes, I think we can build a stratospheric suit, and more than that, come down tomorrow and let's talk to the team that formed the core of the group that actually built it.
If we invest in these most powerful learners and their development, in babies and children and mothers and fathers and caregivers and teachers the ways we invest in our other most powerful and elegant forms of technology,
engineering
and design, we will not just be dreaming of a better future, we will be planning for one.
An example: Arup is one of the world's most successful
engineering
firms, and it was commissioned to build the equestrian center for the Beijing Olympics.
The first was the head of engineering, Frank Maslen, said, there will be no stars in this team.
But wouldn't it be wonderful to have this
engineering
wonder and to allow a people to remain in their sovereign territory, and be part of the community of nations?
And that's because with all the will in the world, the large-scale
engineering
infrastructure that we need to roll out rapidly to decarbonize the supply side of our energy system is just simply not going to happen in time.
These fields are computational design, allowing us to design complex forms with simple code; additive manufacturing, letting us produce parts by adding material rather than carving it out; materials engineering, which lets us design the behavior of materials in high resolution; and synthetic biology, enabling us to design new biological functionality by editing DNA.
As I'm going to tell you now, we recognized that that activity could be harnessed for genome engineering, to allow cells to make a very precise change to the DNA at the site where this break was introduced.
The reason we envisioned using the CRISPR system for genome
engineering
is because cells have the ability to detect broken DNA and repair it.
Genome
engineering
is actually not new, it's been in development since the 1970s.
We can think of older genome
engineering
technologies as similar to having to rewire your computer each time you want to run a new piece of software, whereas the CRISPR technology is like software for the genome, we can program it easily, using these little bits of RNA.
I think that in the end, this technology will be used for human genome engineering, but I think to do that without careful consideration and discussion of the risks and potential complications would not be responsible.
The second time, it's
engineering.
