Bryan Johnson Clones Himself in Lab to Explore Anti-Aging Treatments
Tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson has announced that he has cloned himself as a newborn in a Petri dish using blood cells restored to an embryonic-like state. This clone, dubbed "baby-Bryan," is intended to help test therapies, grow organs for transplantation, and potentially reverse aging. Johnson highlighted that similar technology is in clinical trials for conditions like Parkinson's. While some view this as a futuristic health advancement, others may find it ethically concerning.
