to detect any genetic material.t's very personalized to me and we could have a personalized treatment that is designed and i think coded to go after that. do you think that it would be a big deal as well because they can come up with medications and treatments and protocols that can cite very specifically like i remember years ago they knew that it would penetrate and disarm that basically and so now they know physically then what they are looking at instead of sometimes you can throw everything at it and hope it works instead of throwing things around it. do you think that this will help the company? >> this is the new era. to go after exactly what we want. cancer is not a disease. you can sequence that and have a way to target that genetic material specifically that brings us to a new era. you do talk about the labs and rivalries and everybody moves around and she said places like uc berkeley that have an ovation, nobel prize access to first jen and college students under threat with state budget cuts so how can w

i guess we had these choices to genetics of the genetic supermarket will not be free.you want to allow rich people to buy better genes. we already have nine quality in our society but that would exacerbated and would even it encoded so that we had a species and a subspecies in the edited and the non- edited. so that is a nightmare scenario and that's where i think we would all agree that we don't want to go there. holly: any talk about medical care cost today so if somebody does have super cell anemia, somels of these cystic fibrosis diseases that are costly and are chronic. what a sort of balance itself out because eventually if you don't have to suffer from that, you don't have his medical bills may be sort of something that insurance companies might even be willing to put in four. walter: the whole promise here is this will be great. if you can make a dent in alzheimer's, is a really costly thing to society, emotionally and financially and likewise as you said these chronic diseases whether it be sickle-cell or whatever rated so yes, we can add them out of the speci

this genetic sequence. make this protein so when we use messenger rna for vaccines, we simply coded in a part of the site protein of the coronavirus. that's what the mrna vaccines do. it goes in the manufacturing region of ourselves and the next fragments of that horrible spike cookie. why? because our immune system sees it and says that's not supposed to be around and our immune system is prepared the next time it sees a spike protein, it will kill and that's how we prevent coronavirus so that's messenger rna and its in a similar snippet of rna can serve as a guide. that's called a guide rna that's the guide in the crispr system that takes the enzyme system and says i want you to cut the genetic material here at this gene. so whether you call it crispr rna or guide rna or messenger rna, it's still that four letter nucleic acid call rna and its stories around and cut thingsup and builds proteins . >> the way you frame it makes so much sense. so you do talk about in the beginning and in the end getting into

pretty much all of the vaccines approved so far in various parts of the world are are fairly reacted genet which means they often cause mild side effects like pain and swelling at the injection site as well as things like like 15 or headache or fever or chills or aching joints by and by some estimates about 2 thirds of all recipients report those sorts of effects soon after having a shot they generally disappear within a day or 2 side effects appear to be more common in women than in men and also seem to happen more often in younger recipients then in the elderly but but side effects aren't caused by live virus replicating in your body because the vaccines in use don't actually contain any live virus instead they employ a number of different tricks to pull your immune system into believing you've caught the virus many vaccine platforms work by delivering genetic instructions into your cells that cause them to build sars kovi to proteins these harmless components teach your defenses to recognize the virus without really exposure to it the available chinese vaccines accomplish the same goal

>> we are focused on bringing genetics into mainstream medical care.have done it for, what is ultimately the most personal, the most fundamental of health care information. genomics is not only central in transforming health care, it is happening. the question is how do you get there? we are playing to win in this transformation game, and it does take an investment scale. it is an immense scale that would have to access, and we also have a physical plan for logistics around the globe, investing heavily in that to better serve customers around the globe. we also announced a plan that will help us serve customers better with scale, so it is a mix of technology infrastructure investment as well as good, old-fashioned, solid logistics. romaine: how is the business doing in light of the covid crisis? we did see a slowdown at least in the industry that you are in. i'm curious with the pickup has been so far and when you start to look out a couple years down the road, do you think the uptick we will see is going to be above pre-pandemic levels? >> the short a

and found evidence of genetic adaptations. norman, we've examined the genomes for genes which they've acquired during the course of that evolution audience comes. and we found genes that have an anti viral functions . and these genes hinder the multiplication of viruses within the cells. young indians. and that's not all. scientists have also discovered the genes that unleashed inflammatory responses in the body simply disappears. the research suspect that these 2 genetic adaptations enabled to control its immune system better, it makes the creature more resistant to pathogens. but that's not the bats, only superpower. they can also become incredibly old. just compare them with other mammals. usually it's the case that heavier animals live longer. a common dual mouse weighs about 35 grams and can live up to 6 years. an african elephant can weigh 6 tons and live to be 70 years old. and now the section a brand bat, weighing in at 10 grams condemned to be $41.00 question lifespan. the research is believe the animal's longevity is linked to the fact that bats of the only mammals truly cap

unique trait and at 10 million years old to be a biped is quick. >> i don't think so i think the genetic data show very clearly when the lineage was branching. having said that, there are big marks around these divergence but you raised an important point they have always operated under the assumption that if you find anything that has characteristics of upright locomotion that it is automatically by definition a homonym meaning and ancestor or an extinct relative of us more closely related to us than any of the apes. i think that assumption is on the table maybe not being 100 percent correct because in the late miocene you were experimenting different forms of locomotion like apes in the trees they might have some anatomies that look a little more humanlike for instance the tibia in some ways looks very much like lucy. i think that tells us about like positioning not necessarily weight-bearing at the terrestrial bipedal way but an animal in the trees moving with hand assisted bi-pedalism sometimes gibbons will do this. spider monkeys will do this. but it would mean that the evidence for

and those genetic variants could even be important for the survival of the human species. at least one study has suggested that one of the genes linked to male homosexuality is also linked to higher fertility in women. so preserving that gene within a population would make good sense from an evolutionary perspective. so let's talk about contraceptives the situation with the penis inside. vagina what can you use for contraception so there's different ways you can use the ones but give you a parry are for example the condom for males are the female condom well i think everybody's familiar with the use of a condom for men but what about a female condom one of the. the fee might come this fall person have a vagina and your clothes are pushing down part to bather and. yes so this is inside the vagina yeah and why is it better than the it's better because you can decide for soft or not you don't have to depend on the other part. so what else can you use while you can use condoms and a female condom also prevent s.t.i. it's then you have diaphragm this it's on top of the uterus b
