The scientific group Genome Project-write (GP-write) announced on Tuesday that they plan to launch a "grand-scale community-wide project" to develop cells that are resistant to viruses, as well as cells that are potentially resistant to radiation, freezing, aging and cancer. It's the first step, it says, toward producing "ultra-safe cells" at will.
