Unnatural Selection reactions and clarifications
David Ishee
The Netflix documentary series that's followed me, my friends and some of the scientist and patients at the edges of genetics technology has come out. You can watch it here https://www.netflix.com/title/80208910
This is my reaction and some clarifications of what's happening to address some misconceptions that've popped up.
Here are the links as promised.

Hopefully everything is clear and open. Transparency, openness and honesty are critical to a truly democratized biotech that really works for everyone. One thing I forgot to mention was the protein sequence I used for the bioluminescence construct I made was from photorhabdus luminescens and it's thermally stable at mammalian body temperatures.
