" An\u00A0American biotech company is planning\u00A0a\u00A0groundbreaking trial\u00A0attempting\u00A0to regenerate the brains of dead people, meaning taxes may be soon be left as the only guarantee\u00A0in life. &amp;#039;The ReAnima Project&amp;#039; has been given ethical permission to test\u00A0twenty patients declared clinically dead from brain injury, to see if their\u00A0central nervous system can be revived.\u00A0 The participants have all been kept alive on life support and will be monitored to see if their brains show signs of regenerating when injected with stem cells and scanned with lasers to stimulate the brain. More amazing still, the brain cell regeneration is thought to be able to erase their history\u00A0and begin again -\u00A0a bit like\u00A0animals who regrow limbs, though it may prove\u00A0a slightly\u00A0complicated way to go about that &amp;#039;new year new you&amp;#039;\u00A0idea. CEO of research facility\u00A0Bioquark Inc, Ira Pastor commented: &amp;quot;This represents the first trial of its kind and another step towards the eventual reversal of death in our lifetime.&amp;quot; Wow.\u00A0 The project also aims to investigate degenerative brain conditions, said\u00A0Dr\u00A0Sergei Paylian, Founder,\u00A0President, and Chief Science Officer of Bioquark Inc. &amp;quot;Through our study, we will gain unique insights into the state of human brain death, which will have important connections to future therapeutic development for other severe disorders of consciousness, such as coma, and the vegetative and minimally conscious states, as well as a range of degenerative CNS conditions, including Alzheimer&amp;#039;s and Parkinson&amp;#039;s disease.&amp;quot; So have we, well ahead of schedule, really devised the key to some sort of eternal life?\u00A0We won&amp;#039;t have long to wait, the trial is hoping to see results within the first two or three months.\u00A0 "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
