Resurrecting dire wolves is just the beginning for Colossal Biosciences’ Ben Lamm

  • Summary

  • One recent scientific breakthrough set the internet ablaze: The ‘de-estinction’ of the dire wolf.

Colossal’s co-founder and CEO Ben Lamm joins Rapid Response to take us inside the dire wolf journey, revealing how the startup attracted a roster of celebrity investors, and what the company’s technology means for not only conservation and biodiversity, but potentially the future of human health.
