Craig Venter: Designing life

 

Some regard him as the most important scientist since Darwin. But he himself is only a little more modest. For the first time now, he can actually design life in a computer, make the DNA software, and create new life forms that have never existed before.
He cracked the genetic code using himself as a guinea pig, he created artificial life and he’s been compared to God… and even to Hitler. Now he heads teams of scientists on a vital mission.
