Re: An Article on brain Mapping
Probably. There are imaginable breakthroughs that would make the whole process vastly easier, such as resetting telomeres. But in any case, experimenting on primates is going to be less illegal than doing it with humans, which will matter to anyone who isn't a cartoon mad scientist.

Of course being THS, the absurdly implausible is par for the course.

People have murdered for the sake of vanity. Never underestimate the dangers of vanity, especially the vanity of the powerful.

I also think that even if such a program occurred, many people would demand the research destroyed, because of the means used to get it. It's a hell of a lot easier to rationalize animal torture to get your new life sustaining diabetes drug, than deformed short lived human menageries just for a new way to reproduce.

Re: An Article on brain Mapping
Honestly, given canonical THS tech, human cloning would be trivial; the required tech is implied by genefixing (if you're able to extra DNA, modify it, and re-insert it into the original or a new egg cell, you can do cloning with the same process).
