Biospherea: What do you love about being a bioscientist? Me: The fact that I get to relate with life and organisms, something not abstract, getting to identify problems and proffer solutions, scientific improvisation... in fact everything. I simply love being a bioscientist. I am that Christian Scientist, microbiologist, mushroom scientist, circular economy and sustainable development advocate ✌️

Our new series of career profiles on Your Genome aims to help young people explore the wide range of people, roles and careers in genomics. 🧬 Meet Petra, a Staff Scientist at the Wellcome Sanger Institute. Petra studies DNA out of old museum insects, like disease transmitting mosquitoes. Petra also helps her team with their own projects using her experience of sequencing DNA from really difficult samples.

Something to keep in mind, when discussing the future of mankind.  Many questions arise, like who is in charge and who programs and focuses these living robots? How can they be met with human logic and empathy? What influence are they allowed to have on us as a society? And as a species?!  When we discuss cultural behavior and equal chances for all, how do we deal with something that has no culture, nor competes on our pyramid of needs?!  Thoughts, anyone? 

This innovation holds immense potential for fields like medicine, environmental cleanup, and regenerative therapies. Imagine programmable cells that can repair damaged tissues, target and eliminate cancer cells, or even clean up pollutants in the environment, all while having the ability to reproduce and sustain their populations. However, the creation of self-replicating robotic cells also raises important ethical and safety concerns. The ability to reproduce means these cells could potentially evolve, leading to unpredictable consequences if not carefully controlled. It prompts us to consider the moral implications of creating new life forms and the responsibility that comes with wielding such power.
