About this listen
Professor Brian Cox and our expert panel explore the frontier of human bioengineering and building, replacing, and enhancing our bodies.
Will we ever have bionic brains and cloned humans? Is there a danger of science fiction getting too close for comfort?
From mechanical implants to lab-grown organs to whether humans could evolve to live in space, the discussion delves into what’s possible today and where science might take us next.
