Join our expert "TechKnow" contributors Phil Torres, Shini Somara and Marita Davison as they explore scientific innovations and their impact on our lives. Phil reports from San Diego's "Frozen Zoo," where geneticists are keeping cells from more than 1,000 species in cold storage so that future technology could use them to restore endangered animals. Shini goes to Oklahoma to report from infamous "Tornado Alley" on new technology to better track tornadoes and lessen the damage they cause—and to meet one mom determined to turn her family's tragedy into safer schools across the state.
