Today, the million-dollar question scientist are asking is: "Is it right to fuse animal DNA with Human DNA, thus giving life to a chimera?" It can be intriguing if you think about it, but remember, there are moral concerns. Scientists cannot play god. They have to draw the line somewhere.
A more practical scientific breakthrough is one introduced by Dr. Samuel Bernal, a Filipino-American who designed his own dendritic stem cell therapy. He is among several doctors that specialize in regenerative medicine, a field of medicine that focuses on the body's capability to heal itself.
Perhaps healing oneself is all in the mind. Thanks to the brain which works in amazing ways. In solving problems, the scientific mind can create models to help an individual visualize abstract ideas. Remember James Bond and his techie gadgets? A thought process may have been going on in our minds as the gadgets were being explained to him. We made virtual models of the images he saw. The virtual model helps us understand how a gadget works. We know for instance, that a button in the spypen would activate a laser.
Most times the greatest discoveries are a result of accidents and even simple things. The next time we form shapes and objects using a piece of paper, remember that those exact things were an inspiration to many scientists.
