RNA Spray Crops vs. GMOs: A Physician’s Warning on Terrana Biosciences
Terrana Biosciences, launched by Flagship Pioneering, the creator of Moderna, received a $50 million initial investment and government approval for experimental-use authorizations, raising ethical and public health alarms. The company pioneers RNA-based agricultural traits throughout a “proprietary technology platform”. The company claims that their approach will empower farmers with “…precise, adaptive solution to combat threats to crops in fields and orchards and enhance resiliency,...
Medical Genetic Engineering and Our Children’s Safety
As a pediatrician and advocate for children's health, I recognize that gene therapies for rare conditions like spinal muscular atrophy or Duchenne muscular dystrophy are often held up as evidence of the promise of genetic engineering. While some of these therapies have shown potential in some rare clinical conditions, they do not justify the uncontrolled expansion of genetic manipulation across medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology. These technologies remain largely experimental, with...
