Description

"Science Corp’s first major project is the Science Eye. It’s basically an attempt at a prosthetic eye for blind people, but unlike any that have come before because, it combines gene editing to the optic nerve with a special implant. The Science Eye is still in animal trials, but its potential is clearly wooing investors — so we decided to catch up with Hodak to hear about what the company’s working on, how its test subjects are doing, and what comes next."
