>Actually, a geneticist has already made a cow with human blood. The cows could replace blood donors if he perfects the method.
That sounds amazing. Link?

>it could quickly start teatering on a moral/ethical edge
Morals and ethics are relative.
They said I could become anything I wanted.
SO I BECAME A GOD

You think Craig Venter isn't doing this making bacteria shit because he wants to kill everyone with a supervirus with his email encoded in its DNA?

Because he is.

Why do you believe that 2+2=4 when math is just a theory (a geuss?)

t was very interesting to compare this new world to the world I had known all through my life. The biggest difference, of course, was the economic system. It had effects on everything -- the psychology of people living in Australia, the way people worked with each other, what people bought and why, the level of innovation, the way resources were allocated, etc. One of the more interesting features of the economy from a psychological standpoint was the fact that no one had more than you did, or less, and everyone knew it. That removed entire layers of negative emotions. The fact that you could have pretty much anything you wanted, anytime you wanted it, meant that you placed far less importance on material things. You would expect that, given essentially free access to everything, people would go nuts. Actually, the opposite happened. Suddenly there was no condition of "want" or "envy," so people had no need to show off.

This will sound surprising, but one of the bigger differences was the lack of advertising. The robots did not care whether you bought one style of clothing or another, ate in one restaurant or another, lived in one kind of housing or another... It was all the same to them. Therefore, there was no need for advertising. If a fad caught on -- whether it was a song, a book, a style, a pair of shoes, a restaurant -- it all happened by word of mouth. And everyone knew that. If you tried something and it was good, you told your friends about it.

biologyfag here. I'm currently in a uni (bsch) studying genetics but I need to choose courses for the next year. I was thinking of originally going for microbiology / molecular genetics to become sort of a bacterial (?) geneticist.

But there are also choices to go down a pharmaecutical pathway to become involved in the drugbusiness and things, ie pharmacogenetics.

While I like microbes I also want to make the most money out of my degree (eventually PhD if all goes well). Should I pursue my original idea or go for the pharmacology path? I'm so conflicted atm.

now its my turn to rule /sci/
