Reader Doug tells us what he thinks of DNA:

DNA is our chance to pop open the hood and tinker around a bit. Surgeons get to slice things up and sew them back together a bit but genetic engineers can really mix things up.

Once you’ve got the DNA, you’ve got it all. The trick is figuring out what to do with it.

They always say to keep your work and private life seperate (yes I’m joking about the DNA and cell number thing Dr. Lei).
