  1. Hi guys I would like to know if there are any existing means/organizations allowing non-scientists to give some help during scientific excursions anywhere in the world. I'm asking this because I would love to participate to such excursions. Thanks for the help!
  2. But a wise approach is always to think ahead, right? In 20 years it's possible that the replacement of the whole DNA will be possible. So, people who weren't wise enough to "backup" their DNA will probably be less lucky than the others. So, who wants to answer question #2 ?
  3. Thanks Well, it's not only theorical. It has been achieved already and people were treated for diseases ranging from skin cancer to others. So, how should I start saving my DNA?
  4. Hello Here is something I'm very curious about : From what I understand, and correct me if I'm wrong , gene therapy allows the introduction of a corrected gene into the DNA contained in a few cells, which then, will replicate in order to propagate the corrected gene, right? So, my questions are : 1. what would happen if, at the age of 50, you introduce in your cells the DNA of your 30s? 2. how would you do if you wanted to safely conserve the DNA of your young days during decades? Would a simple hair be enough? 3. since ageing is probably due to deprecating DNA after a certain number of copies, and since we're bound to witness great advances in biology during the next decades, wouldn't be wise to conserve your young DNA for a possible use in the future? Feel free to share your thoughts about it
