Even if this study has potential, wouldn’t it feel like this could be wrong? I mean, as we have all learned, other countries of opposing sides in war have imitated each other’s technology. This may become disastrous. Though the idea of regenerative soldiers is a good sword for warfare, what of surgery and other medicine practices that require operating on the body? Indeed it is true that it will have lasting effects on the human race, some which are beneficial, it is probably not a good idea to apply regenerative abilities to humans or other animals for that matter. If something like this gets out of hand, we would be ushering forth the immortal apocalypse of which life would never be gone to waste away as we humans were intended to. Think about it. The lasting effects on humans, if the research were to be done, would be lasting longer than expected. In fact, if nobody could die, what would happen to our resources? I know by now I sound like an environmentalist, but I am actually a high school student who does not really care much for the human existence because I really do care about the human existence. I could go on, but I think this is enough to cover my thoughts.

This is truly amazing but i would like to see what this gene could do in an animal or human. Would it effect the aging proccess and would it heal a bullet hole
