You might be thinking of the Joe Rogan podcast episode from late June with Bret Weinstein, formerly professor of biology at Evergreen State College, where the topic of gain-of-function research relative to Covid-19 is discussed in some depth. Eric Weinstein, Bret's brother, as mentioned in a later comment, is the managing director of Thiel Capital. Eric was last on the podcast in April 2020 where there was some discussion of Covid - perhaps he also discussed gain-of-function coronavirus research which is not a new subject and has been the subject of controversy - even leading the NIH to suspend funding for this category of research in 2014 (that policy was reversed in 2017). |
