An informative series from pbs narrated by Jeff goldblum on YouTube: search for "dna episode 1 of 5 the secret of life"

It's a great high level overview of dna sequencing from the discovery of its shape through the completion of the human genome project in 2000.

I'm having trouble pasting a link, maybe someone could help me out.

The downvotes seem weird to me. Maybe it felt off topic?

Dr. Francis S. Collins is in several of the videos, and the third video is all about this particular controversy of dangerous experiments at the dawn of genetic engineering(for example one guy wanted to splice a cancer causing gene in e. coli bacterium).

It seemed relevant to me. It is what the article is talking about afterall.

Hard to say. Maybe the lack of a link? I agree it otherwise looks it would be relevant.
