In-Q-Tel has recently shown an interest in biotechnology and DNA sequencing.
Strategically, it's less about the mammoths and more about the capability, In-Q-Tel, blog post, via 'Newsweek'.
Leadership in biotechnology will allow the U.S. to help set the ethical, as well as the technological, standards for the use of this technology, In-Q-Tel, blog post, via 'Newsweek'.
The wooly mammoth was a hairy elephant-like creature that went extinct roughly 4,000 years ago.
Colossal aims to bring back extinct animals like the mammoth using CRISPR gene editing technology.
Colossal will revolutionize history and be the first company to use CRISPR technology successfully in the de-extinction of previously lost species.
