Some wild speculations about the future potential of gene therapy: → Remove scarcity genes, e.g., no urge to eat junk food → Require little to no sleep → Require little to no exercise to stay fit, e.g., via myostatin inhibition → Enhance the immune system → Flush out compounds on demand, e.g., caffeine

How will they determine these things without testing in humans, I feel like it’s a slippery slope, gene therapy is still in its relative infancy and we don’t have a full grasp of a lot of biochem processes we undergo, also one horror story would shut it down, like with psychedelics in the 60s

good place to spend more time. most of the smartest biotech investors i know today say gene therapy is way, way out on the risk curve. probably means there’s some secrets to find out..
