Episode description

Scientists are mapping the connections between our brain cells. If successful, they will "uncover the basis of personality, identity, intelligence, memory, and..." more. Other scientists are developing an artificial womb, while yet others are cloning primates in such a way that will allow for the incorporation of CRISPR gene-editing. In light of all of this, I ponder what it means to be me. Show Notes: bit.ly/2F17P51
