Polymarket, CRISPR Kids, Lamine Yamal
As the popularity of online prediction markets grows, correspondent Anderson Cooper sits down with Polymarket founder and CEO Shayne Coplan in his first network television interview. The 27-year-old newly minted billionaire talks about his platform, where users can bet on politics and pop culture, sports and finance, even war and peace, and how all that data can be used to forecast the future. After a three-year U.S. ban, Coplan explains how Polymarket works, and how the company finds itself poised to reenter the U.S. market with backing from Washington, Wall Street and Silicon Valley.
America’s next wave of scientific talent may come from Lambert High School, where students used CRISPR to develop a promising new way to detect and treat Lyme disease, which affects nearly half a million Americans each year. Correspondent Bill Whitaker meets these “CRISPR kids” as they take their breakthrough to iGEM—the global biotech Olympics in Paris—and face off against the world’s new rising force in biotechnology: China.
Barcelona’s 18-year-old soccer phenom Lamine Yamal has captivated fans with his improvisation and flair. Already, he is considered a generational talent and an heir to the great Lionel Messi. Correspondent Jon Wertheim meets Lamine Yamal in his home country of Spain to talk about his rapid ascent ahead of next summer’s World Cup in North America.
