For the past half-century, from the invention of recombinant DNA to genomic engineering today, the understanding of life as a malleable material and a new platform for emerging biotechnologies, has been a touchstone. This has raised pressing questions about biotechnological innovation, risk, public interest, and other recurring issues in the the history of science and science and technology policy.
