The Man Who Re-Invented DNA: Steve Benner on Hachimoji DNA
Iconoclast, polymath, renegade and world-class chemist, Steve Benner engineered a new breed of DNA with 8 nucleotide options instead of four.

Steve sounds off about the conflict between research and advocacy, and the great power of shattering paradigms and admitting what we don’t know. Hosted on Acast.
