The advent of genetic engineering marks one of the most significant advances in biological science of the last century. How are researchers implementing genetic tools to answer fundamental biological questions? What medical applications of gene editing are on the horizon? Spend an evening with Science by the Pint to hear a panel of Boston-area researchers discuss the present and future of genetic engineering, geared toward a general audience. Following the panel, grab a beer and chat with the panelists, as well as grad students and post docs conducting cutting edge research.
