'Mutant' documentary series in production with Genepool Productions for SBS
December Admin
December Media’s Emmy-award winning producer Tony Wright has teamed up with Genepool Productions to develop a science documentary series for SBS, entitled ‘Mutant’.
The series will explore the implications of powerful DNA-editing technology - how it should be used and who should make those decisions. Emmy-award winning documentary filmmaker Sonya Pemberton will have exclusive access to film the first Global Citizens’ Assembly - an unprecedented event that will bring together members of the public to consider the complicated issues of scientific ethics.
Sonya recently had a paper she co-authored, titled "Global Citizen Deliberation on Genome Editing" published in the top international journal ’Science’.
