Thoughts on "Your Inner Healers"

Although the thought of the Fountain of Youth (iPSCs) is obviously enticing, I think it is also necessary to think about the drastic changes to our lives that it would cause. Think about it...all of our life milestones are set up around our average life span: we begin kindergarten at age 5, start high school around 14, begin college around 18, get married in our 20s or 30s,  and retire around age 60. Before we set our sights on lengthening our life, we need to be careful in considering the changes to society and to our individual lives.
