Science is knowledge rooted in experience or empiricism.
Technology is knowledge rooted in thought or rationalism.
When we advance science we ‘discover’ reality and move forward our understanding of that reality. When we advance technology we ‘invent’ new reality by rearranging existing reality. When this is applied it becomes industry or the science of making things.
Genetic knowledge is knowledge that is physically inherent to the mind. The age old argument of empiricism or rationalism is solved when one not only realizes that both are valid, but when one also comes to see that these two are the two worlds of knowledge. One is convergent, and one is divergent. One is associated with discovery and the other with creativity and invention. One is building upon observations and one is building thoughts upon other thoughts. And both operate by the same logic, but it simply flows in different directions (convergence and divergence).
