RE: The entire genome of the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has been sequenced, and might give us details about how it regenerate lost limbs and damaged organs

Yeah, it's really amazing how some species are able to just regrow parts of them after losing them. As you say, we're still far away from being able to do anything useful with all this information, but this might be the first step towards achieving such incredible medical feats, so we should for sure keep studying these organisms!

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a valuable comment!

Yes, it is amazing. But, What I would love more is to witness such an event where humans are close to immortality. All the Fiction turning into science-backed reality would be amazing, we could actually be more like the characters we fancied in our childhood. Yes, it is the first step and I hope it happens sooner so this generation gets to witness it. Thank you for posting such an informative post so it made me stop and leave a comment. Cheers!

Hehe, that would really be amazing! :D
