The International Journal of Biotechnology, Genomics & Life Sciences
Provocative essays, ethical debates, guest viewpoints, and newsroom editorials tackling the philosophical, regulatory, and societal consequences of the biotechnology century.
When whole-genome sequencing and in-vivo prime editing allow us to erase cardiovascular vulnerability in embryos, is withholding genetic intervention a form of medical negligence—or the start of algorithmic eugenics?

Generative chemistry models predict 10,000 allosteric protein binders in minutes, but without closed-loop acoustic liquid handling assays to calibrate thermodynamic entropy, digital biology remains hallucination.
Pristine natural reefs are vanishing under equatorial marine heatwaves. We must abandon ecological purity nostalgia and actively seed oceans with genetically hardened photosynthetic dinoflagellates.
The triple GLP-1/GIP/Glucagon revolution proves human satiety and metabolic rate are governed by evolutionary receptor mismatches with modern ultra-processed calorie environments.
We welcome guest commentaries from active laboratory researchers, bioethicists, and clinicians. Submissions are reviewed directly by our editorial board.
