We are at the very outset of the Age of Biotechnology. This presses anew questions regarding the limits of the human person. What is the human species from the point of view of evolutionary biology? How malleable is this definition? Is there such a thing as a species? How does this compare to philosophical perspectives on the person? The questions above are not new, but they have acquired new urgency with recent advances in biotechnology. In ths symposium, six distinguished scholars discuss these and other pressing questions in two panels–the first addressing these issues in the practice of science and application of biotechnology in the world, and the second addressing these issues from the point of theory. Part II: Theoria Paul Scherz (Catholic University of America): “Being Human as Being at Risk: The Shift from Genetic Determinism to Precision Medicine” (0:40) Willemien Otten (University of Chicago): “The Dynamics Between Nature and Human Nature on Perpetration and Victimhood” (23:02) Jeff Bishop (Saint Louis University)— “On the Being of Humans and the Being of Technology” (47:50)
