Exhibit Experiences for Adults

As gene editing techniques become more refined, the possibility of editing the human genome is moving from science fiction to reality. What should we do with this power? Who should decide? Be part of a community discussion with researchers, physicians, and neighbors as we consider the possibilities: scientific, social and ethical.
