Abstract
While the United States is the home of modern biotechnology, our lead in research and development, innovation, and production of the most cutting-edge biotechnology breakthroughs is slipping. China is pulling ahead, and falling behind in this critical sector puts our economic, food, energy, infrastructure, and national security at risk. In its comprehensive report to Congress, the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology assesses that time is running out to retain and cement our global leadership in biotechnology. We are falling behind fast, and catching back up won’t be an option. This report outlines an action plan to maintain our advantage in this critical domain, but only if we act now.

Altering Traits and Fates of Wild Populations with Mendelian DNA Modifying Allele Sails: Possible Contexts and Modeling Considerations
Zoom Only | How can we use genetics to manage wild populations, and how do the bioengineers working on these projects predict their impact?
Research Technician at Caltech | LinkedIn
Michelle Johnson (he/him) is a research technician working with Dr. Bruce Hay at Caltech. The lab is interested in using genetic technologies to control the composition and fate of wild populations. Specifically, they work on designing and characterizing novel gene drive systems in different species. Michelle is a computational biologist and spends most of his time designing models, writing software, and describing the effect of novel gene drive systems on various populations. He is especially interested in how the inclusion and exclusion of certain model features can impact results. Michelle graduated from Harvey Mudd College with a BS in Mathematical & Computational Biology in 2023 and has worked with Bruce Hay since then.
Abstract
Population-scale genome modification can alter the composition or fate of wild populations. Synthetic gene drives provide one set of tools, but their use is complicated by scientific, regulatory, and social issues associated with transgene persistence and flow. We have proposed an alternative approach, called an Allele Sail. It consists of a genome editor (the Wind), which is inherited in a Mendelian fashion. This editor introduces DNA sequence edits (the Sail), which experiences an arithmetic, Super-Mendelian increase in frequency. Through modeling, we demonstrate this system’s ability to bring about both population modification and suppression. A relatively simple system, Allele Sails may prove useful since the spread and persistence of the transgenic component can be limited. We outline contexts where Allele Sails could be useful and briefly discuss the modeling field and perspectives on modeling for risk assessment.

Abstract
Environmental accounting is increasingly a central theme in the sustainability discourse. Whether in the form of cost-benefit analysis, carbon disclosures, or economic valuation of nature, accounting is presented as a critical step toward improving policy processes and public accountability. Yet, this rise in environmental accounting has also sparked a critical debate within political ecology and science and technology studies (STS) on what is being counted and how accounting tools are reshaping environmental institutions. In this presentation, I draw on my past work on environmental market policies in the US and India to outline a practice-based approach to the study of environmental accounting. I hope to show that there is an important performative dimension to the accounting impulse. Measurement and quantification may enhance transparency, but at the same time, ever more elaborate forms of quantification also serve to delay, distract, and limit progressive environmental actions.

She uses these tools to organize, facilitate, and empirically study stakeholder engagement activities such as workshops to create justice-oriented and inclusive decision-making spaces about the potential use of biotechnology tools that may be released into shared environments.
Abstract
Since the 1975 Asilomar Conference, where experts gathered to discuss what to do about then-new production of recombinant DNA molecules, much ink has been spilled about the successes, failures, and disruptions (or not) of the summit itself. 50 years after the now-famous Asilomar Conference, science historians organized a follow up summit, providing “an opportunity to reconvene and look towards the future, [but] the summit’s aim [was] to grapple with the past — aware of its accomplishments, limitations, and failures — so as to better engage with the issues of the present.” So, how did it go? For this presentation, I will reflect on my experience at the summit as a participant and fundamentally pose the question, is the Spirit of Asilomar still haunting biotechnology?

Abstract
Once upon a time, in labs and lecture halls far, far away, scientists were trained to avoid stories, anecdotes, and “making it personal” when talking about their work. However empirical evidence demonstrates that these approaches can be the most effective ways to communicate research to non-experts. This short, interactive workshop will examine the elements of a compelling story, explore how our brains respond to storytelling, and introduce a simple, fun template for telling the story of your science in just three sentences. Participants will have the opportunity to practice science storytelling and give/receive feedback, and as a result they will improve their science communication skills and live happily ever after—the end.

Her applied research program at NC State aims to evaluate, innovate, and expand microbial solutions for sustainable agriculture. She is an active member of the Microbes and Social Equity Working Group (MSE), and her research values align with social, environmental, and climate justice.
Abstract
Environmental microbial communities carry out ecosystem functions critical for maintaining and enhancing plant, animal, human, and planetary health. For example, vibrant and productive food systems are fundamentally rooted in soils and soil microbiomes. Climate change, intensive agriculture practices, and the increasing demands of food systems threaten soil microbiome biodiversity and their important ecosystem functions. We are increasingly aware that disruption and degradation of microbiomes amplifies social inequity. Therefore, social and environmental justice must be prioritized while innovating microbial solutions to support sustainability goals. The concept of microbiome stewardship recognizes the importance of microbes in sustaining human and ecosystem health and emphasizes the need to conserve and protect them collectively at the societal level. Dr. Choudoir will discuss their vision for centering soil microbes in sustainable agriculture and building a research and engagement program that aligns with environmental and climate justice.

Eugenics before Genetics
Withers 331 + Zoom | Historical examination of the societal concerns, current ideas and practices, and disciplines that created the context in the early 20th century for the enthusiastic engagement of geneticists in the eugenics movement.
Associate Professor of History at NC State University | Profile
William (Will) Kimler is an Associate Professor of History at NC State University. His research investigates the history of evolutionary theories and arguments, with an emphasis on the interactions among evolutionists, ecologists, geneticists, and animal behaviorists. Dr. Kimler holds a Ph.D. in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology from Cornell University, with an interdisciplinary focus on the role of ecology and genetics in evolutionary theory from Darwin to the Evolutionary Synthesis of the 1940s. That period encompasses the origins of modern genetics, the rapid development of new disciplines within biology, and the incorporation of biological expertise and technologies into social concerns and practices, including eugenics. As a long-time director and mentor of the undergraduate interdisciplinary Thomas Jefferson Scholars program, bridging agricultural sciences and the humanities, that experience has drawn his work more toward the cultural applications of biological concepts.
Abstract
The enthusiasm and participation of early 20th-century geneticists in the eugenics movement is well known, but the narrative is often presented as if the science itself created eugenics. While not downplaying the influential role of many leading geneticists in promoting interest in and applications of eugenic practices, this talk reframes the origins of eugenics, prior to Mendelian genetics. This reframing provides a model for understanding how a volatile combination of societal concerns, prevailing ideas and practices, and multiple disciplines can emerge. Recognizing this broader, interactive context clarifies that “science” and “public” are not truly separate and, together, can become a pre-adapted condition in which a new science can find acceptance for its sweeping, optimistic claims of technological solutions.

<h5>SPRING SEMINAR SERIES</h5>
Navigating Consumer Perceptions for Emerging Ag Tech: Considerations for Outreach, Engagement, and Communication
How agricultural science communication can move beyond traditional, deficit models to engage diverse audiences through dialogue-based strategies aligned with Cooperative Extension’s founding mission.
Assistant Professor and Extension Specialist at NC State University | Profile
Catherine (Katie) Sanders, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor and Extension Specialist at NC State University. Her research bridges science communication and identity-based frameworks to enhance culturally responsive engagement with stakeholders across the food system. Dr. Sanders holds a Ph.D. in Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication from the University of Georgia, with a focus on science communication and program evaluation. She has earned recognition for her innovative contributions to food systems communication and rural health initiatives, receiving two consecutive awards for Article of the Year from the Journal of Applied Communications. Her emerging research inquiry investigates consumer perceptions of gene-editing technologies in plants and livestock and aims to enhance Cooperative Extension’s capacity for effective, diverse, and equitable engagement around agricultural innovations.
Abstract
The discipline of agricultural science communication has long relied on linear and deficit models of communication when marketing new innovations. However, these models are limited in their efficacy for reaching diverse audiences and run contrary to the original mission of Cooperative Extension, one of the first agricultural science communication institutions. During this talk, Sanders will provide an overview of the tradition of agricultural science communication and describe the inflection point the discipline faces today to reach diverse audiences in an information-dense environment. Sanders will also outline her approach to implementing agricultural science communication research strategies for emerging agricultural technologies with specific reference to her work as an Extension Specialist at NC State. Additionally, she will detail her recent research and programmatic efforts to incorporate dialogue-based engagement strategies into agricultural communication, moving away from the traditional deficit approaches. By combining epistemological, historical, and methodological perspectives, Sanders develops new methods of agricultural science communication and hopes to foster dialogue about future directions from this interdisciplinary gathering.
Genetic Engineering and Society Center
Artificial intelligence technologies, methodologies, and applications can, and have been, used throughout the biological sciences, including in engineering biology. This has enabled research and development (R&D) advances across multiple application areas and industries. For example, AI can be used to analyze genomic data (e.g., DNA sequences) to determine the genetic basis of a particular trait and potentially uncover genetic markers linked with those traits. It has also been used in combination with biological design tools to aid in characterizing proteins and for designing new chemical structures, including for drug discovery. AI can also be used across the scientific R&D process, including the design of laboratory experiments, protocols to run certain laboratory equipment, and other “de-skilling” aspects of scientific research. The convergence of AI and other technologies associated with biology can lower technical and knowledge barriers and increase the number of actors with certain capabilities. These capabilities have potential for beneficial uses while at the same time raising certain biosafety and biosecurity concerns. This talk will explore these capabilities and governance options to address both the potential benefits and risks; including recent U.S. Congressional and Executive Branch activities.
