Is it possible for someone to be immortal( young for ever)?

Question

well yes this may sound a bit out there, but isent science mostly about trying the out daring?

yea im to young to even talk ( 15 to mention)

but im a bit smarter for my age, and can figure things out very fast as putting 1+1=2

and when i first learned about biology it just seemed so simple, so to make it long story short, is there anyone out there that is able to help me and get me information?

anything at all

what i do know so far is that there are few things that make you age

like stressing out, your dna gets damaged every time mitosis happens, and so on so forth,

but when i look up immortal cells, like stem cells are immortal, cancer cells are too, and virus. and we also have an enzyme that can produce the protection ends for our dna, so what i think is cant we just look for that in the cancer cells? compare and see a link for we can find it faster? then just try to then copy that and there our cells are young just fix the malfunction in cancer.

and for supper human strength, just try to find a way how we humans can breed that gene for our muscle cells to heal faster for we can hit it harder in the gym,

Answer 1

Unfortunately, biology is far from simple. We're not dragging the discovery process out on purpose, you know ;-)

But for ideas on immortality - look up Aubrey de Grey and his field of "Engineered Negligible Senescence". He has identified what he thinks are the 7 major causes of aging, and has hypothesised potential "cures" for each of them.

Be aware that he is not taken very seriously in the gerontology (science of aging) community, though.

Answer 2

second law of thermodynamics- sorry
