Playing God

from How To Grow A Human

Part One. So how to start building an artificial human? Maybe by thinking about what some regard as the instructions: the human genome. Phil goes to Harvard Medical School to track down George Church, an expert in genome editing, and finds out about how this technology could be opening up ways of creating not only humans but superhumans.
