Author and historian Walter Isaacson speaks at the Westminster Town Hall Forum about his new No. 1 New York Times best-selling book, “The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing and the Future of the Human Race.”

Gene editing has already enabled positive medical advances, but it also poses profound ethical questions. Walter Isaacson tells us more, at the Westminster Town Hall Forum in Minneapolis.

Senior minister Tim Hart-Andersen moderates the discussion, held by remote connection at Westminster Presbyterian Church in downtown Minneapolis.
