10 Ways Technology Could Promise You An Eternal Life


#10 Partial Brain Transplants

Dr. Dorothy T. Krieger, chief of endocrinology at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City has successfully transplanted a piece of brain from one mouse to another, where it not only survived but also correctly hooked itself up and functioned almost normally.

How brain actually works is still a great mystery.  However, it has been proven, with mice that putting the correct tissue in the correct part of the brain may be enough to allow the brain to restore its function to normalcy. 

When science knows how to pull this trick correctly, then planting some genetically produced piece of brain that can be called as “seed” in to brain, the brain may gain power of self recovery and implementation. As long as the brain can “seed”, then the brain can grow and possible irrespective of time.

#9 Organ Printing

The failure of organs could be life threatening and can disrupt normal life, presently organs from donors seems to be the solution other than presence of some synthetics which can imitate natural tissues. Well, this process may soon get replaced by organ printers, machines that build living transplantable organs one layer at a time.

This thought is already put to process by nScrypt, a company in Orlando, Florida, and came up with a prototype, which deposits one-hundredth-of-an-inch-thick dollops of lab-cultured cells onto a layer of gel-based paper invented at the University of Utah.

So, in future one can get organs at the instant he needs it and life goes on.
