Oh, but we can! This is a rather long video by gimme-now standards, and it’s graphic, but it’s so cool. In the near future, we’ll be regrowing our own skin, tissues, organs – maybe even limbs.
Wow … that was an absolutely amazing video… wow.
Thanks for the truly incredible info! Who would have thought it…
Seeing open heart surgery is always stirring. Seeing what they’ve been able to do within the span of a decade or so is truly remarkable.
This video with Alan Russel is just one of dozens of excellent TED talks at TED.com. Another worth noting is an Aubrey de Grey talk on Why we age and how we can avoid it. Check my TED link and find it.
I love the TED talks – thanks for tossing in the link, Stobrawa.
Thanks for the comments, gang!
