Great News

I believe that medical breakthrough will come out of our search for bio-fuels. Dr. Craig Venter’s announcement on May 20 that his lab has synthesized a bacterium (funded by department of energy) only confirms my belief.

The discovery of antibiotics was a breakthrough in my opinion. After antibiotics, though medical science has advanced tremendously, I do not think we have had a breakthrough in treating diseases. This, the ability to make a synthetic cell, might just be the breakthrough we have all been waiting for.


Congratulations Dr. Craig Venter! You have set up a precedent.
