I am wondering what it would be like to be a genetic engineer today and also explore the changes the field will undergo in coming yrs
Hello,
Primarily, as with any technology, once it becomes cheap and easy, it’s going to be used more and more – so we can expect an explosion of activity and innovation around genetic engineering in the coming years.
From a communications viewpoint, the ability to edit genomes directly rather than splice in chunks of DNA from other organisms also offers the potential to change public perceptions around genetic engineering.
I am providing you the link to the entire article about the field in todays world.

Hope it helps...
