spearhead 0 Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) Scientists at manchester university are doing research on how animals such as the frog can regenerate body parts in order to implement some kind of medicine for humans to allow us to heal wounds with no scars and eventually grow body parts back. This wouldnt be genetic engineering to children to give them this ability, this would be a local injection to the affected area and would get to work, and this could be done within our lifetimes. imagine it, a woman with breast cancer has her breast removed, but would be able to grow her breast back. a child in africa looses a limb from a mine but grows it back a soldier gets a laceration across the face that would have left a scar before, but now can heal fully without any sign of ever being cut im so excited to see what sort of changes to the world like this we may see in our lifetime, it makes my imagination run wild full story: BBC News Edited October 12, 2005 by spearhead Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ruin 17 Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 That's incredibly fascinating! Wow! I can only hope that some day we'll be able to achieve those goals. What wonders of medicine that would be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
