Ben Lamm runs Colossal, a company bringing extinct species back using genetics and embryology. The resurrected animals would return to the wild, and the technologies developed could also help human health and conservation efforts.
Yeah. So Colossal is the world's first de-extinction and species preservation company. So our goal is to use genetics and genetic rescue, advanced embryology, lasers, all these crazy things to essentially bring back extinct species or proxies for those species, put them back into the wild in collaboration with governments, indigenous people groups and others, and then build those technologies, take some of those technologies that we build and apply some of them to human health care, but then make the others available for free to conservation. So we have this idea of like, we can do these cool moonshot projects, inspire the next generation, help the ecosystems, and then hopefully help, uh, existing animals as well. And so it's a, it's a complicated problem that we're trying to solve, but you know, it's a pretty big one.
