A Meeting of the Minds: Shinya Yamanaka and Ian Wilmut
On June 11th, 2012, in Yokohama, a historic conversation took place between Shinya Yamanaka and Ian Wilmut. The two men asked many probing questions about each other's research. What was the key to successfully cloning Dolly? What inspired iPS cell research? How did each man feel when he first realized he had succeeded? They also discussed the ethical questions raised by iPS cell technology. For example, among the many applications of iPS cells, they seemingly make it possible to grow human organs inside of pigs. Dr. Wilmut shared his own thoughts about how we prevent the misuse of such groundbreaking technology. The two then shared their thoughts about the future of science, and what is necessary to guarantee that scientific discoveries and advances have a positive impact on society. Finally, Dr. Wilmut offers a message to young scientists, both in Japan and around the world.
Join us for this amazing meeting of the minds. Watch as two giants of their field delve deep into the significance of their discoveries.
