The Early Days of Genetic Engineering

Join me as we dig into a heaped serving of GMO crops through the lens of science, history, and culture. From the Victorian origins of plant genetics through to the genetically modified world we live in today. I’m Orlando de Lange and I’ll be your guide as we explore (true) stories that just might change how you think about the food on your plate, and the future of agriculture.
