War has largely remained confined to the inanimate realms of land, air, space, etc. It is envisioned that it would cross over to the animate realm consisting of the human neuro-psychiatric system. This process would be aided by the cutting-edge developments in Science and Technology. The future battlefield is likely to consist of man-machine interfaces and bio-crossing technologies, especially Biotechnology, are expected to play a major role in it. This paper looks at China's military pursuit of Biotechnology, especially employing the CRISPR-Cas 9 technology, and why the Biotech industry has become a strategic industry for China.
