Throughout the history of medicine, we have not had a way to efficiently correct point mutations in living systems, to change that disease-causing T back into a C.

纵观整个医学史，我们还没有办法有效地纠正生命系统中的点突变，将这种引起疾病的T转变为C。

And one day, the scientists hope to combine their models with real living systems, as they achieved with these seeds absorbing water through a printed structure.

有一天， 科学家们希望将他们的模型与真实的生命系统结合起来，因为他们通过印刷结构使这些种子吸收水分。

This was a living system based not on photosynthesis but on chemosynthesis, an arrangement that biologists would have dismissed as preposterous had anyone been imaginative enough to suggest it.

这种生命体系的基础不是光合作用，而是化学合成。要是哪个想像力丰富的人提出这种安排，生物学家们肯定会认为是很荒谬的。

Throughout the history of medicine, we have not had a way to efficiently correct point mutations in living systems, to change that disease-causing T back into a C. Perhaps until now.

纵观医学史，我们一直没有办法有效地纠正生命系统中的点突变， 将导致疾病的 T 变回 C。 也许直到现在。

It will need to be embedded into all levels of curriculum, particularly at the early stages, so children can see the world as a living system, not as a machine full of stocks and commodities.

它需要融入所有级别的课程，特别是在早期阶段， 这样孩子们才能将世界视为一个生命系统，而不是一个装满股票和商品的机器。

So we wanted to understand the biological program running inside an embryonic stem cell, and understanding the computation performed by a living system starts with asking a devastatingly simple question: What is it that system actually has to do?

所以我们想要了解在 ES 细胞中运行的生物程序，而且，了解该生物系统中所运行的计算始于提出一个极为简单的问题：这个系统到底需要做什么？

Carbonic acid is actually an incredibly important molecule, or we could call it a compound because it's made up of two or, two or more elements, in living systems and in fact, you know, even in the environment.

碳酸实际上是一种非常重要的分子，或者我们可以称它为化合物， 因为它由两种或两种或多种元素组成， 存在于生命系统中， 事实上，你知道，甚至存在于环境中。
