👁On the verge of creating synthetic life
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣\"Can we create new life out of our digital universe?\" Craig Venter asks. His answer is \"yes\" -- and pretty soon. He walks through his latest research and promises that we'll soon be able to build and boot up a synthetic chromosome. NOTE: This talk was given in 2008, and this field of science has developed quickly since then. Read \"Criticisms & updates\" below for more details.

👁A map of the brain
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣How can we begin to understand the way the brain works? The same way we begin to understand a city: by making a map. In this visually stunning talk, Allan Jones shows how his team is mapping which genes are turned on in each tiny region, and how it all connects up.

👁The biology of our best and worst selves
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣How can humans be so compassionate and altruistic -- and also so brutal and violent? To understand why we do what we do, neuroscientist Robert Sapolsky looks at extreme context, examining actions on timescales from seconds to millions of years before they occurred. In this fascinating talk, he shares his cutting edge research into the biology that drives our worst and best behaviors.

👁Why genetic research must be more diverse
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Ninety-six percent of genome studies are based on people of European descent. The rest of the world is virtually unrepresented -- and this is dangerous, says geneticist and TED Fellow Keolu Fox, because we react to drugs differently based on our genetic makeup. Fox is working to democratize genome sequencing, specifically by advocating for indigenous populations to get involved in research, with the goal of eliminating health disparities. \"The research community needs to immerse itself in indigenous culture,\" he says, \"or die trying.\"

👁How we're building the world's largest family tree
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Computational geneticist Yaniv Erlich helped build the world's largest family tree -- comprising 13 million people and going back more than 500 years. He shares fascinating patterns that emerged from the work -- about our love lives, our health, even decades-old criminal cases -- and shows how crowdsourced genealogy databases can shed light not only on the past but also on the future.

👁 How CRISPR lets us edit our DNA
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Geneticist Jennifer Doudna co-invented a groundbreaking new technology for editing genes, called CRISPR-Cas9. The tool allows scientists to make precise edits to DNA strands, which could lead to treatments for genetic diseases ... but could also be used to create so-called \"designer babies.\" Doudna reviews how CRISPR-Cas9 works -- and asks the scientific community to pause and discuss the ethics of this new tool.

👁How we'll fight the next deadly virus
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣When Ebola broke out in March 2014, Pardis Sabeti and her team got to work sequencing the virus's genome, learning how it mutated and spread. Sabeti immediately released her research online, so virus trackers and scientists from around the world could join in the urgent fight. In this talk, she shows how open cooperation was key to halting the virus ... and to attacking the next one to come along. \"We had to work openly, we had to share and we had to work together,\" Sabeti says. \"Let us not let the world be defined by the destruction wrought by one virus, but illuminated by billions of hearts and minds working in unity.\"

👁The age of genetic wonder
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Gene-editing tools like CRISPR enable us to program life at its most fundamental level. But this raises some pressing questions: If we can generate new species from scratch, what should we build? Should we redesign humanity as we know it? Juan Enriquez forecasts the possible futures of genetic editing, exploring the immense uncertainty and opportunity of this next frontier.
