I’d be pretty certain that if any of these has “paused” its just because research reached its limits and is waiting for the next big development that enables it to continue.
Also “recombinant DNA experiments”??? What in the world is meant by that?
I think this is what they mean https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombinant_DNA#Controversy
I read the article in french and it seems they use it with insuline and EPO ? I also think this argument is slippery, these technologies are more in a “pause mode” no ?
TIL, thanks! I agree that this is a fitting example then.
I read through it and it seems that mostly they were unsure about the security so they placed a moratorium on it until they could figure out if it was, and it was deemed not dangerous.
