What do you get when you combine the strongest materials from the plant world with the most elastic ones from the insect kingdom? Super-performing materials that might transform ... everything. Nanobiotechnologist Oded Shoseyov walks us through examples of amazing materials found throughout nature, in everything from cat fleas to sequoia trees, and shows the creative ways his team is harnessing them in everything from sports shoes to medical implants.

This may be a force nothing can stop. I agree in the sense that there are those who rationalize the status quo. Some of us don't care and will do these sorts of things anyway. Even experimenting on ourselves. For example... should I find a way of reversing my own aging, and end up making myself essentially indestructible... And discover that this can be given to anyone, anywhere. What am I morally obligated to do at that point? Should I keep it to myself or release it into the air? Imagine a world in which harm was impossible.

Are you kidding me? Don't be so naive. The elites across all spectrums (including science) are NOT well-intentioned. They are building a world that you and I will not be allowed to be apart of. They want us dead. They think they're an intellectually superior cast of human beings. Behind closed doors, they refer to the rest of us are "useless eaters." They want to drastically reduce the human population so that they can live like kings and queens in their own version of a sci-fi utopia, without us "useless eaters" in their way. They don't need our labor anyone, anyway, now that automation is gradually taking over all human jobs.

TED Speaker, Oded Shoseyov’s researches plant molecular biology protein engineering and nanobiotechnology, creating super-performing materials that are could change the way we build our future products. It is interesting he started with 200 years of modern science Vs 3 billions years of nature wisdom, implying our today modern science is still in its infancy state. The speaker makes compelling presentation on the promise of future new nanobiotechnology. Such innovation and new products will certainly enhance the world at large. Interestingly also, Chinese ancient sages also decoded the mysteries of the universe and life of billions of years history, with observation made in the book called "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic", As compared with the TED speaker, the ancient sages pointed another important pattern : "The Relationship and Integration of Parts" theory, whereas the speaker only focusing on parts. For example, TED speaker talks about the new innovation applied to human body. He may not be aware that even today there are many cases of old people having heart transplant die soon, when the heart donors are from young people with strong hearts. Making strong heart, with transplant or nanobiotechnology ignores the "The Relationship and Integration of Parts" theory, as the strong heart cannot be well supported by the other interacting organs like Liver, Lungs, Kidneys and Spleen. The relationship theory, as per 5-element theory, in the case of strong heart installed, affects the lungs. Because heart is represented by Fire, and lungs by Metal. Lungs are represented by Metal. Fire Controls or melts the Metal. The person straightaway, with the new strong heart will have difficulty in breathing. I will describe more in my new article at www.360q.com

Thus one person could end up living for hundreds if not thousands of years! And as long as we keep making progress this will grow to an inevitable point. Welcome to one part of the future :)

Science and Truth 2 Rock they do. but if you have ever seen how molecular pathways are discovered, you know that we mostly know how some puzzle pieces work, but a lot (interactions) is mostly yet to be discovered. we do not know all the effects of a given protein or signal molecule, same for the dna and its jumpiness and folding mechanisms. so a new insertet gene can have an almost infinite amount of effects on an organism. imagine when natural mutations start kicking in. for example: if a mutant emerges with very strong allelopathic compound and mixes it up in the wild type populaions, the new formed hybrid could become very invasive. im not categorically against it, i just think these cultures would need to be in semi quarantine conditions. hope it made any sense. have a good day

as far as i know it's what they are doing in many places in the world tho. On large scale. I don't care much about biodiversity ect. this will recover quickly after humans get extinct or massively reduced. its more in our own intrest and to prevent further social inequalities, that we should preserve traditional agriculture. Socioeconmical aspects are actually the main problem with GMO companies: their whole patenting of species ect are driving rural areas into massive debts.

Well I would argue that our inescapable mortality is one of the driving forces behind all scientific achievement and human progress in general. People embark on great endeavors because they know their days are numbered and they want to achieve some semblance of immortality. If you could live forever, what's the point in doing anything at all? You could just procrastinate your way towards eternity. But regarding your question about what the achievement is, I honestly don't know where to begin. That you would ask it speaks volumes about your ignorance and narrow-mindedness. It's borderline nihilistic. And if that's the way you're going to live your life, then I'm with Spotted Hyena. I pity you.
