Crossroads with Joshua Philipp

Why Is the Trump Admin Restricting Gain-of-Function Research?

08 May 2025

Description

A controversial research program is now again being restricted. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on May 5 about “Improving the Safety and Security of Biological Research.” The order takes aim at practices including gain-of-function research, where scientists add new capabilities to existing pathogens. And in particular, it also addresses taxpayer-funded research programs in other countries where restrictions may not be as strong.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
