Limb regeneration through bioelectric signals [1] [2], like calling an API of the damaged cells to start the reconstruction.
[1] "Diverse Intelligence" - a talk by Michael Levin, https://youtu.be/iIQX6m2eRPY?t=3097 https://youtu.be/iIQX6m2eRPY?t=3097

- seydor 4y agoHopefully these types of interventions will happen sooner rather than in the far future. Levin's methods use tools that are almost 'conventional' now in biotech and neuroscience. If they will work for organ regeneration etc, then it should be a matter of engineering to put them to use.
