RE: The entire genome of the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has been sequenced, and might give us details about how it regenerate lost limbs and damaged organs

in #science7 years ago

3D printing organs is really cool, and I honestly believe that this will be the used technology (and not something made from biological processes) for recreating lost limbs. At least for a long while, and who knows what we are capable of doing in 50 years from now?

I bet we don't have a clue on what we can do in 50 years from now. Time travel? :P

Exactly, no one can know what type of technology we have at that point. Maybe creating new organs/limbs is not even needed anymore because we've found something better to replace it with? ;) Maybe a bit of a stretch for 50 years though, and time travel probably is as well. But who knows?
