The field of genetics is exploding with a new world of discovery in which biologists are now regularly creating novel methods to address urgent global crises—from halting malaria to increasing food production. Along with leading science, UC San Diego researchers are addressing critical ethical concerns that are inherently linked with cutting-edge discovery.

In collaboration with UC San Diego Alumni and Graduate Division the new “A Deep Look into the Future of Biology,” series will be moderated by Dean Kit Pogliano in Tata Hall’s Kavli Auditorium and live streamed for those who cannot attend in person. The format for each event will be four short, impactful presentations followed by a panel discussion.

This event is free and open to the public. Reception with refreshments to follow the program on the Tata Hall Terrace.

Complimentary parking will be available near Tata Hall starting at 4pm. Further details will be emailed to attendees as the event nears.
