Was there even a serious policy discussion of banning gain-of-function research?
Gain of function research is supposed to help with pandemics, right? Did it help with COVID?
- whatshisface 4y agoI don't think I know enough to evaluate the case around gain of function research, all I know is that the blog post didn't make any effort to.
