In another post, I mentioned that I am not a scientist, let alone a geneticist....
But I had a thought today that made me wonder if this has been explored by others yet.
Namely, I wonder what would happen if one took the genetic material of a virus out, and inserted one's own genetic code (taken from a childhood sample perhaps) into that virus...and then had the virus injected into your own body. Would the DNA sample from childhood fix and repair your aging DNA as the virus invaded your body's cells?
Would this kind of be like cloning one's self only...not cloning?
hmmmm....
