If you take the human physique right down to its most simple elements, you possibly can take it aside and put it again collectively once more in so some ways.

That’s why biologist Cornelis Vlasman sees it as a organic LEGO system. He’s constructed a clickable system of interchanging organs and has introduced it to life…type of.

In his fictional experiment, he created a residing, natural being fashioned from his personal cells and named it OSCAR. The being does want know-how to work, and every of its components are interchangeable so distinctive preparations will be created.

Vlasman confirmed off his mind module just a few years in the past, which was a totally electrical system, and related it to a mind module. The 2 components interacted instantly, and the identical occurred when he added a kidney module and a few limbs, only for enjoyable.

Watching it transfer is definitely form of disconcerting.

Vlasman doesn’t agree, saying the prototype adjustments the human physique from a closed system to an open-source system.

“If an organ will get sick, you possibly can simply exchange it with a brand new one. The modular physique will turn into alterable and adaptable to all types of conditions.”

It’s wild to consider organic physique components being managed by an electrical mind. I think about there are all types of purposes and methods to combine this on the subject of stem cell analysis and organ alternative going ahead.

I simply don’t know if I’m ready for science fiction to turn into actuality.
