I don't get it. What exactly is the line of research they'll be doing?
Well of course, that's what everyone says when they've stopped laughing. I did see something funny about their research, though. Ann Gauger is one of their researchers.
From: Biologic Institute - Wikipedia
quote:
Gauger reported on her work at the Wistar Retrospective Symposium held from June 3 through June 7, 2007 in Boston, Massachusetts. As reported by Daniel Brooks, "...she discussed “leaky growth,” in microbial colonies at high densities, leading to horizontal transfer of genetic information, and announced that under such conditions she had actually found a novel variant that seemed to lead to enhanced colony growth. Gunther Wagner said, “So, a beneficial mutation happened right in your lab?” at which point the moderator halted questioning."
Trouble is, mess around too much in the lab, and you're going to find evidence for evolution.
