Quotes About Biotechnology

I don't work on longevity, I work on keeping people healthy.

We live in a science fictional world with things like cloning and face transplants, and things seem to be getting stranger and stranger.

El ratón Pérez puede salvarte la vida (o a tus hijos) La doctora Patrick me introdujo en el uso de los dientes para almacenar células madre. Si en algún momento te quitan las muelas del juicio o a tus hijos se les caen los dientes de leche (los cuales tienen una concentración especialmente alta de células madre de pulpa dental) plantéate recurrir a una empresa como StemSave o National Dental Pulp Laboratory para conservarlos con la finalidad de usarlos más adelante.

I urge researchers to make use of the opportunities that are available to them and to do all they can to fulfill the promise that stem cell research offers.

Feeding the world will be one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. It will be impossible without using scientific advancements and biotechnology.

There's already a lot of active research going on using the Crispr technology to fix diseases like Duchenne muscular dystrophy or cystic fibrosis or Huntington's disease. They're all diseases that have known genetic causes, and we now have the technology that can repair those mutations to provide, we hope, patients with a normal life.

I have spent my entire career in vaccine development, in the government with CDC and BARDA and also in the biotechnology industry.

My sense is that we're ready for another industrial revolution in this country. The great minds and innovators of Silicon Valley would come through China and say, The pipeline is full of ideas - there's personalized medicine, biotechnology, new forms to power ourselves, clean energy, etc., etc.

I believe that properly regulated research in stem-cell biotechnology will lead to many valuable improvements in medical treatment and that objections on religious or ethical grounds should be vigorously opposed.

We can continue to make significant strides in the scientific community by exploring new stem cell research methods that do not include destroying human embryos.

Growing new organs of the body as they wear out, extending the human lifespan? What's not to like?

DNA is now a reality. Reproductive

We pretend that the debate about genetically modified crops is a debate about science when the reality is, actually, that the science is very clear. It is really a debate about values.

To affordably feed the next billion people, we must have higher-yielding crops with even greater nutritional value. America should be at the vanguard of the innovative advances that will make this happen.

What I want to do is demonstrate that biology can learn how to make a vast array of molecules that people thought were outside the realm of biology.

America is home to a vast, dynamic life-science industry.

Stuart Williams, a scientist at the Cardiovascular Innovation Institute in Louisville, Kentucky, is experimenting with taking fat-derived cells extracted during liposuction and mixing them with glue to print a heart. Williams believes that a 3D-printed "bioficial" heart may be possible in ten years.

We can create new food substances.

The discovery of streptomycin as a product of a rather obscure group of microorganisms, the actinomycetes, led to the study of these organisms as potential producers of other chemotherapeutic substances.

The success stories in biotechnology are mainly due to the straightforward application of design thinking in both the business and science aspects of our lean startups.

I see, in the future, bioengineered almost everything you can imagine that we use.

This is exciting. A woman recently had a baby from an embryo that had been frozen for seven years. She said, "I had no idea if I was having a little boy, a little girl–or fish sticks."

With DNA, you have to be able to tell which genes are turned on or off. Current DNA sequencing cannot do that. The next generation of DNA sequencing needs to be able to do this. If somebody invents this, then we can start to very precisely identify cures for diseases.

We know that in 2001 it was believed 78 stem cell lines existed. But now we know there are only 22 that are viable, and they have been contaminated with mouse stem cells.
