When I was a young boy, I used to gaze through the microscope of my father at the insects in amber that he kept in the house. And they were remarkably well preserved, morphologically just phenomenal. And we used to imagine that someday, they would actually come to life and they would crawl out of the resin, and, if they could, they would fly away.
If you had asked me 10 years ago whether or not we would ever be able to sequence the genome of extinct animals, I would have told you, it's unlikely. If you had asked whether or not we would actually be able to revive an extinct species, I would have said, pipe dream.
But I'm actually standing here today, amazingly,
to tell you that not only is the sequencing of extinct genomes a possibility,
actually a modern-day reality, but the revival of an extinct species is actually within reach
are YOU ready to think out of the box?
are YOU ready to accept just Think about
things may happen in as little as 10 years?
10 years later, everything is going to be different and we all know that
it's only the matter of are we going to accept it now and look far...
