The next species of human –  A Ted talk by Juan Enriquez

I like to talk about a lot of different things here on Raymmar.com and everyone loves a good Ted Talk. Juan Enriquez opens briefly with some of the monetary perils we face and then dives into some really interesting new sciences about the human body, evolution and the progression of our species.

He talks about engineering bacteria to act as a kidney, taking the part of wine (resveratrol) that is good for you, and mixing it into beer and adding an extra wing to a chicken. Grow extra teeth, Learn more about regenerative cells that can rebuild ears and bladders for themselves, and learn about cells that can create things from nothing and build other human parts.

Pretty wild ride and some great food for thought.

Some more crazy ideas you can find in this video:

  • Mechanical ears
  • Mechanical eyes
  • Seeing in infrared
  • Robotic advancement
  • Overlapping human species
  • Insert DNA and have it boot up as a different species
  • Radio Shack of DNA and other molecular structures
