The Perfect Human Being Series E10 - Lone Frank on mapping your own genome

Danish science journalist Lone Frank is interviewed by Dutch journalist and philosopher Bas Heijne. Frank (Århus, 1966) uses personal experiences in her work about moral dilemmas of new technologies. She is specialised in translating complex topics about genetics and neurobiology to a broad audience. For her most recent book, she mapped her own genome to gain insight in her health, psychology and identity. In this video, Heijne and Frank talk about the individual and societal consequences of knowing one's DNA structure and the fact that there is no fixed self.

Bas Heijne (1960) is a Dutch writer and interviewer. He studied English language and literature, has published numerous books and is well-known for his opinionated essays and columns in newspaper NRC Handelsblad. For the tv series De Volmaakte Mens, Heijne went on a personal quest to discover what defines 'being human' in our increasingly technological society. He interviewed philosophers, technologists and scientists around the world, in search of the future of the human species.

This interview is an excerpt from the Dutch science programme De Volmaakte Mens (“The Perfect Human Being”), episode 3 'Tinkering with the Soul'. The six-part science series De Volmaakte Mens was broadcast on Dutch television in Spring 2015.
