Big Picture Science - They Know Who You Are
ENCORE: You’re a private person. But as long as you’re on-line and have skin and hair, you’re shedding little bits of data and DNA everywhere you go. Find out how that personal information – whether or not it’s used against you – is no longer solely your own. Are your private thoughts next?
A security expert shares stories of ingenious computer hacking … a forensic scientist develops tools to create a mug shot based on a snippet of DNA … and from the frontiers of neuroscience: mind reading may no longer be the stuff of sketchy psychics.
Guests:
- Marc Goodman – Global
security advisor, founder, Future Crimes Institute, author of Future Crimes: Everything Is Connected, Everyone Is
Vulnerable and What We Can Do About It
- Susan Walsh – Forensic geneticist, Indiana University – Purdue University in Indianapolis
- Marvin Chun – Psychologist, Yale University
