From an early age of about eight or nine or so, i had just a natural curiosity for the natural world. Cancer runs in my family. In fact, i lost my aunt to breast cancer. And that peaked my interests in genetics. Im fascinated by how the genes we inherit shape our biological destiny, including our health. I believe the key to treatments and cures for diseases like these, lies in explicit efforts to engineer human genes. But can we fix not only whats broken but also enhance our genetic cod...
