Futurist: Juan Enriquez:
who, quoting his TED http://www.ted.com/speakers/juan_enriquez.html" :

"thinks and writes about the profound changes that genomics and other life sciences will cause in business, technology, politics and society."

​
Highlights:

12:15 defines cell as hardware, genes as software, "life" as code is interchangeable
13:00 Hamilton Smith: Nobel Prize: 1978 for discovering type II restriction enzymes
14:00 biology as energy

Before posting I did a search and this topic appears to be virgin, with the exception of two references to Hamilton Smith from other posts.

This presentation may give young students/young engineers something to think about when making career choices...

Enjoy: Rhody...
