“CRISPR” is a powerful gene-editing technology that is revolutionising biomedical research. It allows researchers to quickly, and cheaply, target and edit genes at precise locations along the long DNA chains of organisms. The big hope is that CRISPR (pronounced “crisper”) could help researchers correct mutations in the human genome, effectively treating genetic diseases. But some fear CRISPR might lead to the creation of designer babies or unleash consequences we cannot predict. “Think of it like editing text,” says Dr Janet Rossant, a researcher who uses CRISPR in her lab at Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children. “You can cursor in, and you delete a few words, paste in a little sentence. And that is what people can now do in the genome. You can do it in bacteria; you can do it plants; you can do it in animals; you can do it in human cells.” The hopes and fears surrounding CRISPR are explored in this revealing documentary. The Nature of Things is one of the most successful series in the history of Canadian television. Hosted by the world-renowned geneticist and environmentalist, David Suzuki, the program is in its 58th season, a landmark by any standard. Every week, the influential program presents stories that are driven by a scientific understanding of the world. Stories full of adventure, drama and insight. The programmes entertain and inspire audiences by engaging with the people and personalities behind the science. From the search for other life in the universe to the psychology of babies, from the furry animals that invade your backyard to the consequences of human progress, The Nature of Things throws open the door to the wonder and accomplishments of science.
