George Church, the guy that started Colossal with him, like was an expert in this area. He he wrote all the books on synthetic biology, like Regenesis was one book and over a thousand papers and these things.
Charles Hoskinson · The Shawn Ryan Show · Jul 2025 Listen at 23:09 The best things said about it
He had danced around the issue in his 2012 book Regenesis uh where he had proposed bringing back Neanderls which people always get angry are like Robert you're mispronouncing it again.
Why people recommend it
Regenesis by George M. Church and Edward Regis is a notable book exploring the field of synthetic biology and the future of genetic engineering. Charles Hoskinson appeared on The Shawn Ryan Show to discuss pioneers in the discipline, noting that George Church was an expert who authored multiple papers and the influential book Regenesis. Additionally, Robert Evans mentioned the 2012 publication on episodes of Behind the Bastards. He explained that the text touched upon controversial proposals to bring back Neanderthals through genetic engineering and was tied to a publicity stunt involving the storage of billions of data copies inside synthetic DNA. Furthermore, Evans noted that Church co-wrote the work with Ed Regis, a detail that he found amusing given the author shares a name with a character from Jurassic Park. Podcast guests utilized the text to illustrate both the historical trajectory of genetic manipulation and the eccentricities surrounding prominent modern researchers in the field of de-extinction science.

“the book Regenesis was about to hit shelves and suddenly there's all these articles about how he stored 70 billion copies into like a a dot of DNA no longer than like a [ __ ] period on a piece of paper that you know was able to store so many copies like isn't that amazing right”
“The article goes on to summarize the book that he co-wrote with Ed Regis, who it's weird to me that his co-author's name is Ed Regis because Ed Regis is also a character in the book Jurassic Park.”
