Imagine a world where humans and animals blend together, thanks to genetic engineering like CRISPR-Cas9. This is the world of human-animal chimera research, where hybrids are real and raise big ethical questions. We need clear ethical rules as scientists explore this new area. In 2024, chimera research is at a key point, with big scientific steps and big ethical questions. Now, articles often have 6-10…
Did you know that CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing is a big deal for understanding longevity? Over the past 20 years, research in neuroimmunology has grown a lot. Scientists found a strong link between the immune and brain systems, called neuroimmunomodulation. This link between the brain and immune system is very important for our health. It affects how we fight off diseases and even how we age.…
