But we know you don’t always have time to sit down and read everything you want to each day—life just gets in the way. That’s why we’re launching MIT Technology Review Narrated: a place for you to download some of our best stories as podcast episodes you can listen to anytime, whatever you’re doing.
In partnership with News Over Audio, we’ll be making a selection of our stories available, each one read by a professional voice actor. You’ll be able to listen to them on the go or download them to listen to offline.
We’ll be publishing a new story each week on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, including some taken from our most recent print magazine.
Just navigate to MIT Technology Review Narrated on either platform, and follow us to get all our new content as it’s released.
CRISPR Babies: Six years later
Today at 12.30pm ET, subscribers can join our editor in chief Mat Honan and senior editor for biomedicine Antonio Regalado for “CRISPR Babies: Six years later”: a live virtual interview with He Jiankui, the Chinese biophysicist whose team created the first gene-edited humans.
Although he served a prison term, he has not given up on his idea that changing genes in an embryo could create people resistant to common diseases, such as Alzheimer’s. Register to attend here. And, if you’re not a subscriber already but want to join us, sign up for a subscription today.
