Nature should not be subject to patents, as discoveries within the natural world ought to remain accessible to all.

“I don't think you should be able to pat- I don't think you should be able to patent stuff that you discover in nature.”

Humanity should explore using gene editing to grant humans beneficial biological traits found in other species, such as the ability to regenerate limbs.

“I like the fact that newts can regenerate their limbs. Where is the gene sequence for that? Let's give that to humans and give it first to veterans who have lost their legs or arms and regrow our limbs.”
