Sinopse

As reported in Nature Communications (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-03293-x), Charles Denby used CRISPR-Cas9 (https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/radiolab/articles/update-crispr) to successfully engineer brewers yeast (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/20/science/craft-beer-hops.html) to produce linalool and geraniol. We interview both Charles and Bryan Donaldson (Lagunitas) who oversaw the sensory analysis for this groundbreaking study. Special Guests: Bryan Donaldson and Charles Denby.
