Utopia or dystopia? It’s up to us. On BRAVE NEW PLANET Eric Lander, one of our greatest scientific minds, explores the frontiers where our future will be determined. Up first: Deepfakes and the future of truth. Plus a conversation with Malcolm Malcolm Gladwell podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bra…

Thank you for sharing, Marcia McNutt! Looking forward to our conversation about climate intervention on 10/19!

Thanks, David Keith. Looking forward to our conversation in the episode on climate intervention on 10/19!

The new pod Brave New Planet from Eric Lander on the implications, both good and bad, of emerging technology is fascinating. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id1…

Thanks, Ray! Looking forward to our conversation in the episode on climate intervention on 10/19!

.Cecilia Lindgren I'd be interested to hear your thoughts!

Fabulous new podcast from the brilliant scientist Eric Lander. It covers a series of technologies with enormous upsides but also downsides if we handle them wrong--from atmosphere modification to stop climate change to release gene-edited organisms into the wild.

It was a lot of fun talking with you and Monica. Thanks for having me on Armchair Expert Podcast!

It was great talking with @daxshephard! I’m not counting on an Emmy nomination, though!

Interesting conversations that are worth a listen: The link to Eric Lander's "Brave New Planet" podcasts involving smart discussions on "the most exciting and challenging scientific frontiers"--what's going on, what's ahead and what are the implications. podcasts.pushkin.fm/brave-new-plan…

Geneticist (and #StayTuned veteran) Eric Lander has a fascinating new podcast, Brave New Planet, focused on the risks & rewards connected to new technological innovations: Deep Fakes, robots, algorithms, gene drives, and much more. Check it out: bravenewplanet.org

What’s it going to take to find common ground to tackle big challenges in science and society? Humility, trust, and skepticism are a good foundation. Utopia or dystopia? It really is up to us. A conversation on Brave New Planet. Hear Season 1 now. podcasts.pushkin.fm/brave-new-plan…

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, MD, MPH! A brilliant person, a brilliant choice. #ScienceIsBack

Stacey Gabriel stepped up when the country needed help! Broad Institute has known you as an inspiration and a force of nature for 22+ years—from Human Genome Project to disease genetics to Covid-19 testing. Thanks The Boston Globe for profiling a true hero! bostonglobe.com/2020/12/10/mag…

Tremendously excited to work alongside so many bright minds to advise the President-elect and push the boundaries of what we dare to believe is possible. We need everyone. #ScienceIsBack

Humbled and excited to serve as WH science advisor for President-elect Joe Biden. He has assembled a diverse team of brilliant scientists and is elevating the role of science. So much to be done, and it will take everyone working together. #Scienceisback!

President-elect Joe Biden lays out 5 big questions about the future of science and technology. Answering them will take everyone — scientists, technologists, and the public — working together! #Scienceisback! buildbackbetter.gov/wp-content/upl…

I am so saddened by Eli Broad’s passing, and my heart goes out to Edye. Some thoughts below:

From now on, I’ll be tweeting in my official capacity at Eric Lander. Follow along – there is so much to be done! #ScienceIsBack
