Genetic Warfare: From Strategic to Cellular - Your Cells are Not Safe

Dr. Biberman's presentation will examine the ethical questions that arise from the development and use of “genetic weapons” – or genetically engineered bioweapons – on the battlefield and outside the battlefield. We will begin with an overview of what’s technologically possible and probable over the next two decades. We will then consider the ethical implications of the different ways in which genetic weapons can be employed.
