Harvard's “best teacher” creating a new map of humanity

The future of digital and genetic revolutions, as predicted by a life sciences expert

 Decades from now, our future grandchildren might be resentfully telling us, "I was born with a defect because you knew I had cancer-causing genes and didn't remove them." Although editing babies' genes isn’t accepted right now, but sooner or later, faster, cheaper, and better technology may make gene editing the norm.

 In asking the profound questions about what might be coming, Juan Enriquez takes Michael Sandel's "What is Justice?" one step further and presents a new map of the future that technology will inevitably bring to humanity. Justice has changed and will continue to change. What is unacceptable today may one day be considered perfectly normal. Juan Enriquez explores how we will live in the future that the digital and genetic technological revolution will bring.

Full Bio

Juan Enriquez

- Founding Director, Life Sciences Project, Harvard Business School
- Named one of the best teachers at Harvard Business School by Harvard Business School Interactive
- Research affiliate at MIT's synthetic neurobiology lab
- Managing Director, Excel Venture Management

 One of today's most provocative futurists, Juan Enriquez is a leading authority on life sciences research. Instead of being entranced by the dazzling advances in science and technology, Enriquez ponders and predicts possible futures by focusing on how those technologies will change the social, economic, and political structures of the world we live in. He has been recognized as one of Harvard Business School's best teachers for his work on the role of technology in shaping societies and creating new value orders within them.


 In 2009, he was named TED's favorite futurist after his talk, "The Next Species of Human." A futurist who looks for clues in various realms of human life to sketch a more detailed picture of the world to come instead of just sitting in a lab and imagining the future, Enriquez asks the ultimate question: what should we be thinking about now to prepare for the fast-approaching future?
