Scenario

When your research team can't agree on publishing CRISPR enhancement results

Our research team is split on whether to publish our CRISPR enhancement findings because half of us think we're not ready for the societal implications and half think withholding scientific progress is paternalistic. Every lab meeting becomes a philosophical debate that goes nowhere and I can feel us losing trust in each other's motivations.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Scientific integrity and social responsibility create competing loyalties that fragment collective wisdom.
