Perhaps

one country will do it and eventually everybody else will realize their regulations are hurting themselves

I want immortality

China

China is the least moral place

I do not want immortality...

Great for science

I just think it's a logical inconsistency to allow every human being so much bodily autonomy but not grant the same rights of bodily autonomy to younger humans just because we think we know better

Parenting?

How a kid wants to do a thing

**Zed#2633** just left the server.

And you impose your will on it

So it doesn't hurt itself

Except on a genetic level

Hiv

Cancer

Old age..

stopping you right there, cancer and mortality can't be genetically coded out

that's not how biology works

you literally have to replace the telomeres on the ends of old cells and that's not possible with crispr

I know the basics

I study telomeres

Right now

Ageing isn't fully connected to telomeres.

Cellular senility is

^

That is basically death of old age

and a cause of cancer

Didn't know cells had padded slippers.

I know there must a workaround

I don't see it yet

But there is

you'd have to invent a system that doubles the amount of telomeric material during cellular division

Golden pheonix, it is a one cause for certain cancers, others it's because the actual DNA structure has folded in upon itself.

I mean... nanos?

Perhaps

Rouqen, more possible then CRISPR in that regards yes.

yes, but what I'm saying is that you can't genetically modify out telomeric decay, so death and cancer are inevitabilities

at least as far as crispr goes

I need to look into the formation of telomeres

At conception
