What if lab research on viruses is more dangerous than we thought? Gain-of-function research is any experiment that can alter a virus to make it more transmissible. This sort of research, while high risk is also high reward. But can it always be error-free? Is it ethical? And what are the long-term implications of such research on humanity?
