Emily Hughes from The New Zealand Drug Foundation joins Jonny to chat about upcoming drug testing ahead of Laneway & the testing available onsite at the festival. She also chats about what they have been finding in drug samples over January.
Donald Trump, inaugurated nearly two weeks ago, launched his own meme coin, a cryptocurrency that originates from a personality or internet culture. The coin was launched on January 17th, two days before his entering into office, and has now accumulated close to 100 million in trading fees over this time.
The coin reached 14.5 billion dollars overall market value, now falling by two-thirds its original value. Questions have been raised about conflicts of interest, and intersection of business and government.
Sasha spoke to Professor of Law and Business at The University of Auckland, Alexandra Andhov, about the Trump Crypto Launch and the wider influence of meme coins and cryptocurrency.
Gene technology in the medical sector has been banned in New Zealand for nearly thirty years, however as of 2 months ago, a new bill lifting the ban has passed the first reading within parliament.
The legislation is based on Australia’s Gene Technology Act 2000. Similarly, a regulator will be established and will be supported by an office, a technical advisory committee and a Māori advisory committee. This regulator is to manage potential risks to human health and the environment.
Professor Justin O’ Sullivan from the Liggins Institute, University of Auckland, welcomes the new changes. Sasha spoke to him about potential breakthroughs in cancer research, rare diseases, and a wider conversation of ethics.
