[extropy-chat] Scientists create 'miracle mice' that

[Joao Magalhaes]

It's not impossible, considering the already proven capacity for 
regeneration of MRL mice. I should point out, however, that MRL mice, 
despite their regenerative capacity, appear to be short-lived (Ellen 
Heber-Katz, pers. comm.). So regenerative potential alone, despite it's 
great impact for human medicine, is not necessarily related to aging. More 
detailed aging studies in these animals are needed, though.

Yes, that's the conference Aubrey is organizing.

Cheers,

Joao
