SUMMARY:Ethical Frontiers in Biotechnology | The Plasticity of Human Cells: Synthetic Human Biology and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:<p>	<drupal-media data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="032cc0d0-f146-4630-a98f-03789a9621d9" alt="ethical frontiers" data-view-mode="hwp_medium"></drupal-media></p><p>	The amazing "plasticity" of human cells opens up exciting new possibilities for patient diagnosis and treatment, anti-aging research, organ generation, and more. These possibilities inspire hope for new cures in the future, but many may wonder whether there ought to be ethical limits to how we harness the power of human plasticity.<br><br><a alt="https://bioethics.hms.harvard.edu/person/faculty-members/insoo-hyun-0" href="https://bioethics.hms.harvard.edu/person/faculty-members/insoo-hyun-0" linktype="1" shape="rect" target="_blank" track="on">Drs.
