2000
女士们先生们,
00:17
I present当下 to you the human人的 genome基因组.
1
2000
3000
我向您展示人类基因组
00:20
(Applause掌声)
2
5000
3000
(鼓掌)
00:23
Chromosome染色体 one, top最佳 left.
3
8000
2000
左上是一号染色体
00:25
Bottom底部 right are the sex性别 chromosomes染色体.
4
10000
2000
右下是性染色体
00:27
Women妇女 have two copies副本 of that big X chromosome染色体;
5
12000
2000
女性有两条那个大大的X染色体
00:29
men男人 have the X
6
14000
2000
男性有个X
00:31
and, of course课程, that small copy复制 of the Y.
7
16000
2000
当然,还有个小小的Y
00:33
Sorry boys男孩, but it's just a tiny little thing that makes品牌 you different不同.
8
18000
4000
男士们,不好意思,就是那个小东西让你不同
00:37
So if you zoom放大 in on this genome基因组,
9
22000
3000
如果放大这条基因组
00:40
then what you see, of course课程, is this double helix螺旋 structure结构体 --
10
25000
3000
你看到的当然就是这个双螺旋结构
00:43
the code of life spelled拼写 out with these four biochemical生化 letters,
11
28000
2000
生命的密码就是由这些生化的字母组成
00:45
or we call them bases基地, right:
12
30000
2000
或者说碱基,对吧:
00:47
A, C, G and T.
13
32000
2000
A, C, G 和 T
00:49
How many许多 are there in the human人的 genome基因组? Three billion十亿.
14
34000
2000
人类基因组有多少这样的结构?30亿
00:51
Is that a big number?
15
36000
2000
这个数字大吧?
00:53
Well, everybody每个人 can throw around big numbers数字.
16
38000
2000
谁都能随便谈论大数字
00:55
But in fact事实, if I were to place地点 one base基础
17
40000
2000
但是,如果我把一个碱基放在
00:57
on each pixel像素 of this 1280 by 800 resolution解析度 screen屏幕,
18
42000
3000
这个1280×800屏幕的一个像素上
01:00
we would need 3,000 screens屏幕 to take a look at the genome基因组.
19
45000
3000
得要三千个屏幕一睹人类基因组
01:03
So it's really quite相当 big.
20
48000
2000
所以这是非常大的
01:05
And perhaps也许 because of its size尺寸,
21
50000
2000
也许因为这个规模的缘故
01:07
a group of people -- all, by the way, with Y chromosomes染色体 --
22
52000
3000
一群人-都是带Y染色体的
01:10
decided决定 they would want to sequence序列 it.
23
55000
2000
他们决定进行测序
01:12
(Laughter笑声)
24
57000
2000
(笑声)
01:14
And so 15 years年份, actually其实, and about four billion十亿 dollars美元 later后来,
25
59000
3000
15年,实际上花了大约40亿
01:17
the genome基因组 was sequenced测序 and published发表.
26
62000
2000
基因组获得测序并公开了
01:19
In 2003, the final最后 version was published发表, and they keep working加工 on it.
27
64000
3000
2003年最终“完成图”面世,他们继续完善它
01:22
That was all doneDONE on a machine that looks容貌 like this.
28
67000
2000
这些都是由这样个机器完成的
01:24
It costs成本 about a dollar美元 for each base基础 --
29
69000
2000
每个碱基大概要花费1美元
01:26
a very slow way of doing it.
30
71000
2000
这样工作非常缓慢
01:28
Well folks乡亲, I'm here to tell you
31
73000
2000
不过各位,我今天来要告诉你们
01:30
that the world世界 has completely全然 changed
32
75000
2000
这个世界大变模样了
01:32
and none没有 of you know about it.
33
77000
2000
你们还不知道呢
01:34
So now what we do is we take a genome基因组,
34
79000
2000
我现在做的是获取一个基因组
01:36
we make maybe 50 copies副本 of it,
35
81000
2000
将其复制50份
01:38
we cut all those copies副本 up into little 50-base-基础 reads,
36
83000
3000
然后分割成50个碱基读数
01:41
and then we sequence序列 them, massively大规模 parallel平行.
37
86000
2000
然后进行大规模同时测序
01:43
And then we bring带来 that into software软件,
38
88000
2000
然后用软件
01:45
and we reassemble重组 it and we tell you what the story故事 is.
39
90000
2000
重新合成并给你解读
01:47
And so just to give you a picture图片 of what this looks容貌 like,
40
92000
3000
为了让你更直观地了解
01:50
the Human人的 Genome基因组 Project项目: 3 gigabases千兆碱基, right.
41
95000
2000
人类基因组测序工程:3GB,
01:52
One run on one of these machines:
42
97000
2000
在这样的机器上测序:
01:54
200 gigabases千兆碱基 in a week.
43
99000
3000
一周可完成200GB
01:57
And that 200 is going to change更改 to 600 this summer夏季,
44
102000
3000
这个夏天将有望提升至600
02:00
and there's no sign标志 of this pace步伐 slowing减缓.
45
105000
3000
并且这种增长没有放缓的趋势
02:03
So the price价钱 of a base基础, to sequence序列 a base基础,
46
108000
3000
所以每个碱基测序的价钱
02:06
has fallen堕落 100 million百万 times.
47
111000
3000
下降了一千万倍
02:09
That's the equivalent当量 of you filling填充 up your car汽车 with gas加油站 in 1998,
48
114000
3000
这就像你1998年给车加满油
02:12
waiting等候 until直到 2011,
49
117000
2000
等到2011年
02:14
and now you can drive驾驶 to Jupiter木星 and back twice两次.
50
119000
2000
能到木星两个来回
02:16
(Laughter笑声)
51
121000
5000
(笑声)
02:21
World世界 population人口,

02:28
Moore's摩尔定律 law,
55
133000

摩尔定律
02:30
the old way of sequencing测序, and here's这里的 all the new stuff东东.
56
135000
3000
旧的测序方式,然后是这些新玩意
02:33
Guys, this is a log日志 scale规模;
57
138000
2000
各位,这是个对数尺度
02:35
you don't typically一般 see lines线 that go up like that.
58
140000
3000
你不会常看到趋势像那样上升
02:38
So the worldwide全世界 capacity容量 to sequence序列 human人的 genomes基因组
59
143000
3000
所以世界范围内可进行人类基因组测序的能力
02:41
is something like 50,000 to 100,000 human人的 genomes基因组 this year.
60
146000
3000
今年大概是五万到十万人类基因组
02:44
And we know this based基于 on the machines that are being存在 placed放置.
61
149000
3000
这是依据被配置的机器估算的
02:47
This is expected预期 to double, triple三倍 or maybe quadruple
62
152000
3000
而这在未来可能会
02:50
year over year for the foreseeable可预见的 future未来.
63
155000
2000
每年翻两番,三番,甚至四番
02:52
In fact事实, there's one lab实验室 in particular特定
64
157000
2000
实际上,有一个实验室
02:54
that represents代表 20 percent百分 of all that capacity容量.
65
159000
3000
具备所有测序能力中的百分之二十
02:57
It's called the Beijing北京 Genomics基因组学 Institute研究所.
66
162000
3000
就是华大基因
03:00
The Chinese中文 are absolutely绝对 winning胜利 this race种族 to the new Moon月亮, by the way.
67
165000
4000
中国人毫无疑问正在领跑这场新的登月竞赛
03:04
What does this mean for medicine医学?
68
169000
2000
这对药学来说什么意义呢?
03:06
So a woman女人 is age年龄 37.
69
171000
2000
如果一个37岁的女性
03:08
She presents礼物 with stage阶段 2 estrogen雌激素 receptor-positive受体阳性 breast乳房 cancer癌症.
70
173000
4000
她患有II期ER阳性乳腺癌
03:12
She is treated治疗 with surgery手术, chemotherapy化疗 and radiation辐射.
71
177000
3000
她正在接受手术治疗,化疗和放射治疗
03:15
She goes home.
72
180000
2000
她回家了
03:17
Two years年份 later后来, she comes back with stage阶段 three C ovarian卵巢 cancer癌症.
73
182000
3000
2年后,她发现患上III期C卵巢癌
03:20
Unfortunately不幸, treated治疗 again with surgery手术 and chemotherapy化疗.
74
185000
3000
不幸的是,再次接受手术和化疗
03:23
She comes back three years年份 later后来 at age年龄 42
75
188000
2000
3年后她42岁
03:25
with more ovarian卵巢 cancer癌症, more chemotherapy化疗.
76
190000
3000
又患上卵巢癌,接受更多的化疗
03:28
Six months个月 later后来,
77
193000
2000
6个月后
03:30
she comes back with acute急性 myeloid leukemia白血病.
78
195000
3000
她患上急性髓性白血病
03:34
She goes into respiratory呼吸 failure失败 and dies eight days later后来.
79
199000
3000
最后呼吸衰竭八天后死亡
03:37
So first, the way in which哪一个 this woman女人 was treated治疗, in as little as 10 years年份,
80
202000
3000
首先她接受的10年治疗
03:40
will look like bloodletting放血.
81
205000
3000
基本就是放血
03:43
And it's because of people like my colleague同事, Rick干草堆 Wilson威尔逊,
82
208000
2000
正因为有人,比如我的同事,里克・威尔森
03:45
at the Genome基因组 Institute研究所 at Washington华盛顿 University大学,
83
210000
3000
他工作与华盛顿大学的基因组研究所
03:48
who decided决定 to take a look at this woman女人 postmortem事后.
84
213000
2000
决定对她尸检
03:50
And he sequenced测序, he took skin皮肤 cells细胞, healthy健康 skin皮肤,
85
215000
3000
他进行测序,他取了皮肤细胞,健康的皮肤
03:53
and cancerous癌的 bone marrow骨髓,
86
218000
2000
和癌化的骨髓
03:55
and he sequenced测序 the whole整个 genomes基因组 of both of them
87
220000
2000
他测定两者的所有基因组
03:57
in a couple一对 of weeks, no big deal合同.
88
222000
3000
区区几周后
04:00
And then he compared相比 those two genomes基因组 in software软件,
89
225000
2000
他用软件对比两组基因组
04:02
and what he found发现, among其中 other things,
90
227000
2000
他发现了
04:04
was a deletion缺失, a 2,000-base-基础 deletion缺失
91
229000
2000
30亿碱基里
04:06
across横过 three billion十亿 bases基地
92
231000
2000
有两千个碱基的丢失
04:08
in a particular特定 gene基因 called TPTP53.
93
233000
2000
这是在一个叫TP53的基因上
04:10
If you have this deleterious有害 mutation突变 in this gene基因,
94
235000
3000
如果这个基因发生有害突变
04:13
you're 90 percent百分 likely容易 to get cancer癌症 in your life.
95
238000
3000
就有百分之九十的可能患癌
04:16
So unfortunately不幸, this doesn't help this woman女人,
96
241000
2000
很不幸这没能帮到这位女性
04:18
but it does have severe严重, profound深刻 if you will,
97
243000
3000
但这对她的家人来说
04:21
implications启示 to her family家庭.
98
246000
2000
是很重要深刻的启示
04:23
I mean, if they have the same相同 mutation突变,
99
248000
2000
如果他们有同样的突变
04:25
and they get this genetic遗传 test测试, and they understand理解 it,
100
250000
3000
他们接受基因测试然后了解到该情况
04:28
then they can go and get regular定期 screens屏幕, and they can catch抓住 cancer癌症 early
101
253000
3000
他们就可以接受常规检查并早点发现病症
04:31
and potentially可能 live生活 a significantly显著 longer life.
102
256000
2000
从而可以大大延长生命
04:33
Let me introduce介绍 you now to the Beery喝啤酒喝醉的 twins双胞胎,
103
258000
2000
让我来介绍毕瑞兄妹
04:35
diagnosed确诊 with cerebral颅内 palsy麻痹 at the age年龄 of two.
104
260000
2000
他们在2岁时被诊断为脑瘫
04:37
Their mom妈妈 is a very brave勇敢 woman女人
105
262000
2000
他们的母亲是个非常勇敢的女性
04:39
who didn't believe that the symptoms症状 weren't matching匹配 up,
106
264000
2000
她不相信诊断符合症状
04:41
and through通过 some heroic英勇 efforts努力 and a lot of Internet互联网 searching搜索,
107
266000
2000
通过她不懈努力和网上搜索
04:43
she was able能够 to convince说服 the medical community社区
108
268000
3000
她说服了医疗人员
04:46
that, in fact事实, they had something else其他.
109
271000
2000
他们患是另一种病
04:48
What they had was dopa-responsive多巴反应 dystonia张力障碍.
110
273000
3000
多巴反应性肌张力失常
04:51
And so they were given特定 L-Dopa左旋多巴,
111
276000
2000
所以采用L-多巴治疗
04:53
and their symptoms症状 did improve提高,
112
278000
2000
他们的病情确实有所改善
04:55
but they weren't totally完全 asymptomatic无症状.
113
280000
2000
但是并没有完全消除
04:57
Significant重大 problems问题 remained保持.
114
282000
2000
仍然存在严重的问题
04:59
Turns out the gentleman绅士 in this picture图片 is a guy named命名 Joe Beery喝啤酒喝醉的,
115
284000
2000
照片中的男士叫乔・毕瑞
05:01
who was lucky幸运 enough足够 to be the CIOCIO
116
286000
2000
很幸运地他是
05:03
of a company公司 called Life Technologies技术.
117
288000
2000
一家叫做生命科技的公司的首席信息官
05:05
They're one of the two companies公司
118
290000
2000
这家公司是
05:07
that makes品牌 these massive大规模的 whole整个 genome基因组 sequencing测序 tools工具.
119
292000
3000
提供基因组测序设备的两大供应商之一
05:10
And so what he did was he got his kids孩子 sequenced测序.
120
295000
3000
所以他测定他的孩子(的基因)
05:13
And what they found发现 was a series系列 of mutations突变 in a gene基因 called SPRSPR,
121
298000
3000
他们发现了SPR基因上的一个系列突变
05:16
which哪一个 is responsible主管 for producing生产 serotonin血清素, among其中 other things.
122
301000
4000
这个片段与产生血清素的功能相关
05:20
So on top最佳 of L-Dopa左旋多巴, they gave these kids孩子 a serotonin血清素 precursor先导 drug药物,
123
305000
3000
所以除了L-多巴,他们也用血清素前体药物辅以治疗
05:23
and they're effectively有效 normal正常 now.
124
308000
2000
孩子们恢复正常了
05:25
Guys, this would never have happened发生 without whole整个 genome基因组 sequencing测序.
125
310000
3000
各位,没有基因组测序这些都无法实现
05:28
And at the time -- this was a few少数 years年份 ago -- it cost成本 $100,000.
126
313000
2000
当时,几年前的时候,花费高达10万美元
05:30
Today今天 it's $10,000. Next下一个 year it's $1,000.
127
315000
2000
如今是一万美元,明年会是一千
05:32
The year after it's $100, give or take a year.
128
317000
2000
后年是一百
05:34
That's how fast快速 this is moving移动.
129
319000
2000
就是这么快
05:36
So here's这里的 little Nick缺口 --
130
321000
2000
这是小尼克
05:38
likes喜欢 Batman蝙蝠侠 and squirt喷出 guns枪炮.
131
323000
3000
他喜欢蝙蝠侠和水枪
05:41
And it turns out Nick缺口 shows节目 up at the children's儿童 hospital醫院
132
326000
3000
尼克去儿童医院接受治疗
05:44
with this distended扩张 belly肚皮 like a famine饥荒 victim受害者.
133
329000
2000
他的肚子涨得像饥荒儿童一样
05:46
And it's not that he's not eating,
134
331000
2000
这不是因为他不吃
05:48
it's that when he eats, his intestine basically基本上 opens打开 up
135
333000
2000
而是他吃的时候,他的肠子就打开
05:50
and feces spill out into his gut肠道.
136
335000
2000
废物进入腹腔
05:52
So a hundred surgeries手术 later后来,
137
337000
2000
在经历了无数手术后
05:54
he looks容貌 at his mom妈妈 and says, "Mom妈妈,
138
339000
3000
他看着妈妈说“妈妈,
05:57
please pray祈祷 for me. I'm in so much pain疼痛."
139
342000
3000
为我祈祷吧,我十分痛苦“
06:00
His pediatrician儿科医师 happens发生 to have a background背景 in clinical临床 genetics遗传学
140
345000
3000
他的儿科医生恰好有临床遗传学方面的背景
06:03
and he has no idea理念 what's going on,
141
348000
2000
他不知道问题出在哪儿
06:05
but he says, "Let's get this kid's孩子的 genome基因组 sequenced测序."
142
350000
2000
他说”让我们给他做基因组测序吧“
06:07
And what they find is a single-point单点 mutation突变
143
352000
2000
然后他们在控制程序性细胞死亡的基因上
06:09

144
354000
3000
发现一个单点突变
06:12
So the theory理论 is that he's having some immunological免疫 reaction反应
145
357000
3000
所以根源就是他对
06:15
to what's going on to the food餐饮 essentially实质上,
146
360000
3000
食物有种免疫反应
06:18
and that's a natural自然 reaction反应, which哪一个 causes原因 some programmed程序 cell细胞 death死亡.
147
363000
3000
这是种自然反应,它会导致程序性细胞死亡
06:21
But the gene基因 that regulates调整对象 that down is broken破碎.
148
366000
2000
但这个基因的此种功能出现问题
06:23
And so this informs运筹学, among其中 other things, of course课程,
149

他能吃A1沙司了
06:32

379000
2000
利用基因组
06:36
as a universal普遍 diagnostic诊断
155
381000

06:38
is upon us today今天.
156
383000
2000
正在到来
06:40
Today今天, it's here.
157
385000
2000
就是今天,就在这里
06:42
And what it means手段 for all of us
158
387000
2000
这对这屋子里的每一个人来说
06:44
is that everybody每个人 in this room房间 could live生活 an extra额外 five, 10, 20 years年份
159
389000
3000
意味着我们可以多活十到二十年
06:47
just because of this one thing.
160
392000
2000
就是因为这项技术
06:49
Which哪一个 is a fantastic奇妙 story故事,
161
394000
2000
这是个神奇的故事
06:51
unless除非 you think about humanity's人类的 footprint脚印 on the planet行星
162
396000
3000
当然还有人类遍布全球的足迹
06:54
and our ability能力 to keep up food餐饮 production生产.
163
399000
2000
和我们追赶粮食产量的能力
06:56
So it turns out
164
401000
2000
不过
06:58
that the very same相同 technology技术
165
403000
2000
这项技术
07:00
is also being存在 used to grow增长 new lines线
166
405000
2000
同样可以被利用于
07:02
of corn玉米, wheat小麦, soybean黄豆 and other crops作物
167
407000
3000
种植新型玉米,麦子,大豆和其他粮食
07:05
that are highly高度 tolerant宽容 of drought干旱, of flood洪水,
168
410000

能够抵抗干旱和洪水
07:07
of pests害虫 and pesticides农药.
169
412000
2000
害虫和杀虫剂
07:09
Now look, as long as we continue继续 to increase增加 the population人口,
170
414000
3000
随着人口不断增长
07:12
we're going to have to continue继续 to grow增长 and eat genetically基因 modified改性 foods食品,
171
417000
3000
我们会不得不使用转基因产品
07:15
and that's the only position位置 that I'll take today今天.
172
420000
3000
这是我的唯一立场
07:18
Unless除非 there's anybody任何人 in the audience听众
173
423000
2000
除非观众中有人
07:20
that would like to volunteer志愿者 to stop eating?
174
425000
2000
决定绝食
07:22
None没有, not one.
175
427000
2000
不,没人会
07:24
This is a typewriter打字机,
176
429000
2000
这是个打字机
07:26
a staple钉书针 of every一切 desktop桌面 for decades几十年.
177
431000
3000
数十年前每个书桌上都有一个
07:29
And in fact事实, the typewriter打字机 was essentially实质上 deleted删除 by this thing.
178
434000
4000
实际上,打字机完全被这个取代了
07:33
And then more general一般 versions版本 of word processors处理器 came来了 about.
179
438000
3000
然后是更多代文字处理器面世
07:36
But ultimately最终, it was a disruption瓦解 on top最佳 of a disruption瓦解.
180
441000
3000
不过,最令人措手不及的
07:39
It was Bob短发 Metcalfe梅特卡夫 inventing发明了 the Ethernet以太网络
181
444000
2000
还是鲍勃・梅得卡夫发明了以太网
07:41
and the connection连接 of all these computers电脑
182
446000
2000
电脑的联网
07:43
that fundamentally从根本上 changed everything.
183
448000
2000
革命性地改变了一切
07:45
And suddenly突然 we had Netscape网景, and we had Yahoo雅虎
184
450000
3000
突然我们就有了Netscape,雅虎
07:48
and we had, indeed确实, the entire整个 dotcom网络公司 bubble泡沫.
185
453000
3000
然后是整个互联网的泡沫经济
07:51
(Laughter笑声)
186
456000
3000
(笑声)
07:54
Not to worry担心 though虽然,
187
459000
2000
不过别担心
07:56
that was quickly很快 rescued获救 by the iPodiPod的, FacebookFacebook的
188
461000
2000
iPod, Facebook又拯救了我们
07:58
and, indeed确实, angry愤怒 birds鸟类.
189
463000
2000
当然还有愤怒地小鸟
08:00
(Laughter笑声)
190
465000
2000
(笑声)
08:02
Look, this is where we are today今天.
191
467000
3000
这就是我们今天所处(的环境)
08:05
This is the genomic基因组 revolution革命 today今天. This is where we are.
192
470000
2000
这是基因革命地时代,我们所处地时代
08:07
So what I'd like you to consider考虑 is:
193
472000
2000
我希望你们考虑的是:
08:09
What does it mean
194
474000
2000
如果这些点不是代表你的基因的碱基
08:11
when these dots don't represent代表 the individual个人 bases基地 of your genome基因组,
195
476000
3000
而是整个星球上基因相连
08:14
but they connect to genomes基因组 all across横过 the planet行星?
196
479000
3000
这意味着什么?
08:17
So I just recently最近 had to buy购买 life insurance保险.
197
482000
2000
我不久前才买了人身保险
08:19
And I was required需要 to answer回答:
198
484000
2000
我被这样问道:
08:21
A. I have never had a genetic遗传 test测试, B. I've had one, here you go,
199
486000
3000
A.我从来没有进行过基因测试,B.我有过,没戏了
08:24
and C. I've had one and I'm not telling告诉.
200
489000
2000
C.我有过但我不说出来
08:26
Thankfully感激地, I was able能够 to answer回答 A,
201
491000
2000
很幸运,我还能选A
08:28
and I say that honestly老老实实 in case案件 my life insurance保险 agent代理人 is listening.
202
493000
3000
要是我的保险代理人在听着的话我可确实没说谎
08:31
But what would have happened发生 if I had said C?
203
496000
3000
如果我选的是C呢?
08:34
Consumer消费者 applications应用 for genomics基因组学, they will flourish繁荣.
204
499000
2000
基因组学的消费需求将大大增加
08:36
Do you want to see whether是否 you're genetically基因 compatible兼容
205
501000
2000
你想不想知道
08:38
with your girlfriend女朋友? Sure.
206
503000
2000
你跟女友的基因是否兼容?当然
08:40
DNA脱氧核糖核酸 sequencing测序 on your iPhone苹果手机? There's an app应用 for that.
207
505000
3000
要不要在你的iPhone上基因测序?有这么一个应用
08:43
(Laughter笑声)
208
508000
2000
(笑声)
08:45
Personalized个性化 genomic基因组 massage按摩 anyone任何人?
209
510000

08:48
There's already已经 a lab实验室 today今天
210
513000
2000
如今已经有个实验室
08:50
that tests测试 for allele等位基因 334 of the AVPRAVPR1 gene基因,
211
515000

218
531000
2000
可能患心肌病的总统?
09:08
Now think of it, it's 2016
219
533000
2000
假设,现在是2016年
09:10
and the leading领导 candidate候选人 releases发布
220

09:11
not only her four years年份 of back tax returns回报,
221

09:13
but also her personal个人 genome基因组.
222
538000
2000
还有她的个人基因组
09:15
And it looks容貌 really good.
223
540000
2000
看上去很不错
09:17
And then she challenges挑战 all of her competitors竞争对手 to do the same相同.
224
542000
2000
然后她要求其他的竞争者也这么做
09:19
Do you think that's not going to happen发生?
225
544000
2000
你觉得这不可能发生?
09:21
Do you think it would have helped帮助 John约翰 McCain麦凯恩?
226
546000
2000
你觉得这会帮到约翰・麦凯恩?
09:23
(Laughter笑声)
227
548000

(笑声)
09:25
How many许多 people in the audience听众
228
550000
2000
观众里有多少人
09:27
have the last name名称 Resnick雷斯尼克 like me? Raise提高 your hand.
229
552000
2000
跟我同一个姓,雷斯尼克?请举手
09:29
Anybody任何人? Nobody没有人.
230
554000
2000
有人是吗? 没有
09:31
Typically通常, there's one or two.
231
556000
2000
明显,有一两个
09:33
So my father's父亲的 father父亲 was one of 10 Resnick雷斯尼克 brothers兄弟.
232
558000
2000
我父亲是雷斯尼克10兄弟种的一个
09:35
They all hated each other.
233
560000
2000
他们相互不喜欢
09:37
And they all moved移动 to different不同 parts部分 of the planet行星.
234
562000
2000
他们移居到这世界上不同的角落
09:39
So it's likely容易
235
564000
2000
所以好比
09:41
that I'm related有关 to every一切 Resnick雷斯尼克 that I ever meet遇到, but I don't know.
236
566000
3000
我与我遇到过的雷斯尼克都有关系,但我不确定
09:44
But imagine想像 if my genome基因组 were deidentifieddeidentified, sitting坐在 in software软件,
237
569000
3000
试想如果我的基因组被确定,保存在软件里
09:47
and a third第三 cousin's表哥的 genome基因组 was also sitting坐在 there,
238
572000
2000
一个三表兄弟的基因组也是
09:49
and there was software软件 that could compare比较 these two
239
574000
2000
有软件可以对比两个(样本)
09:51
and make these associations协会.
240
576000
2000
并且联系上
09:53
Not hard to imagine想像. My company公司 has software软件 that does this right now.
241
578000
3000
不难想像,我的公司就有这样的软件
09:56
And so imagine想像 one more thing:
242
581000
2000
那么再像一下
09:58
that that software软件 is able能够 to ask both parties派对 for mutual相互 consents同意,
243
583000
3000
如果软件可向双方征询同意书
10:01
"Would you be willing愿意 to meet遇到 your third第三 cousin表姐?"
244
586000
2000
“你想不想与你的三表兄见面?”
10:03
And if we both say yes,
245
588000
2000
如果两人都说是
10:05
voila! Welcome欢迎 to chromosomally染色体 LinkedInLinkedIn.
246
590000
2000
耶!欢迎来到染色体LinkedIn网站
10:07
(Laughter笑声)
247
592000
4000
(笑声)
10:11
Now this is probably大概 a good thing, right?
248
596000
2000
这也许是个好事
10:13
You have bigger clan氏族 gatherings聚会 and so on.
249
598000
2000
你可以有个大家族
10:15
But maybe it's a bad thing as well.
250
600000
2000
也可能是坏事
10:17
How many许多 fathers父亲 in the room房间? Raise提高 your hands.
251
602000
2000
这屋子里有多少父亲?请举手
10:19
Okay, so experts专家 think that one to three percent百分 of you
252
604000
3000
好的,专家认为你们中间百分之一到三的人
10:22
are not actually其实 the father父亲 of your child儿童.
253
607000
2000
并不是你孩子的父亲
10:24
(Laughter笑声)
254
609000
2000
(笑声)
10:26
Look --
255
611000
2000
这个-
10:28
(Laughter笑声)
256
613000
4000
(笑声)
10:32
These genomes基因组, these 23 chromosomes染色体,
257
617000
3000
这些基因组,这23个染色体
10:35
they don't in any way represent代表 the quality质量 of our relationships关系
258
620000
3000
它们并不代表我们人际关系的质量
10:38
or the nature性质 of our society社会 -- at least最小 not yet然而.
259
623000
2000
或者我们这个社会的性质-至少目前还没有
10:40
And like any new technology技术,
260
625000
2000
如同任何新科技
10:42
it's really in humanity's人类的 hands
261
627000
2000
都取决与人类自己
10:44
to wield it for the betterment改善 of mankind人类, or not.
262
629000
3000
是否用于对人类有益的一面
10:47
And so I urge敦促 you all to wake唤醒 up and to tune in
263
632000
3000
所以我强烈期望你们所有人醒悟
10:50
and to influence影响 the genomic基因组 revolution革命 that's happening事件 all around you.
264
635000
3000
并参与到这场发生在你们周围的基因革命
10:53
Thank you.
265
638000
2000
谢谢
