cell division reversed in a lab
This is pretty wild. By screwing around with proteins or something in a cell that's dividing, a scientist actually managed to reverse the cell division.

Here's a video showing duplicated chromosomes back into the center of the cell.

This has some pretty big implications. This could reverse cell division in cancers or birth defects.

As well as controlling the growth of stem cells.

I better fucking hope they have a cure for cance by the time that bastard disease gets to me. I wouldn't deserve it either, I'm so young and sexy and intelligent.
