Do cities have DNA‪?‬ The DNA of Cities

    • Society & Culture

We begin this series with a simple question “Do cities have DNA?” We ask an expert panel of urban planners, economists and architects what The DNA of Cities means from their personal and disciplinary viewpoints. We also hear from an epigeneticist who helps us understand more about the science behind our endeavour to decode urban identity. 
We wish to thank Prof Edgar Pieterse, Prof Mike Batty, Dr Jaana Remes, Dr Karissa Sanbomatsu, Abha Joshi Ghani and Prof Ricky Burdett for sharing their insights with us in this episode. 
This episode is dedicated with love and affection to the memory of Abha Joshi Ghani.
