Using gene editing to rewind aging -

Quote
Then in 2016, scientists at the Salk Institute in California engineered a way to partially rewind the cells of mice with progeria using a lower dose of the Yamanaka factors for a shorter period. The premature ageing slowed down in these mice. They not only looked healthier and livelier than progeria mice who hadn’t had the treatment, but their cells were also found to have fewer epigenetic marks. Moreover, they lived 30 per cent longer than the untreated mice. When the researchers applied this same treatment to normally ageing mice, their pancreases and muscles also rejuvenated.

Post by: Diabolizer on May 29, 2019, 06:46:13 am: Well I'd want to increase my strength as well as my dex. I wonder if they'll have be able to genetically implant memories, knowledge, or other kinds of mental activity?

I'd like to use genetic engineering/bioengineering to make fantasy creatures, like a unicorn, grifon, or a hot blonde that likes to have 3 somes with me and her friends.
