Holy crap! The chirality of life jumping from pure research to planet destroying mistake. Once again, one has to ask how and when and why we might halt research into certain questions.

Life isn't even-handed: many cellular components are all either left or right handed. But we are now (uncomfortably) close to being able to make flipped "mirror" cells. A group of us consider and highlight the risks and call for collective effort before we get there.

Over 30 prominent scientists call for a ban on the creation of a "mirror cell"--a microbe made of molecules that are mirror images of their natural forms. It could cause a mind-boggling global disaster. Here's my story [gift link] 🧪https://nyti.ms/3OUCXp6
