    The article discusses regeneration and the history of its research. There is more information on the dedifferentiation process and it even approaches the ethical issues of engineering regenerative abilities in human beings.

    this is really interesting. It is almost scary to know what they can do already with human tissue/limbs

    This is extremely intriguing. I didn't know that there was technology like this in existence, I always thought this topic was science fiction.

    It's all been very interesting while researching it. In response to Zack, I also didn't know how close they were to achieving this before I started this report. And to Val, it is a tad bit frightening to think what it could mean for the future, but I'm actually a little more scared of your topic, believe it or not!

    This is an article explaining the history of sonic weaponry. It also gives a fair amount of detail about the pros and cons if sonic weaponry became common and the ethics of producing such a weapon.
