Craig Venter. Aired: December 4, 2007 on BBC 1

A transcript of his lecture can be found here. The century ahead will be fundamentally shaped by advances in biology, Venter says. His current aim: Design an organism capable of creating energy.

Edit:

Later, in February 2008, Craig did this talk ‘On the verge of creating synthetic life’ at TED:

Famed geneticist creating life form that turns CO2 to fuel
