Talk:Human enhancement

message: Perhaps that Regeneration_(biology) needs to be mentioned here; significant progress is being made that can be used for human therapy aswell (ie http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4888080.stm , Axolotl

replies: text: I am skeptical since regeneration is not a technique/technology. We should mention a technique/technology which enables regeneration. --Loremaster (talk) 19:36, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Regeneration 

message: The future of human enhancements will play an important role in the future of human health and quality of life. In the fields of pharmaceuticals, genetic engineering, nanotechnology and other enhancement devices scientists are discovering new ways to eradicate disease. From the pharmaceutical industry working on a new class of drugs that are mechanism-based and memory enhancing and drugs coated with nanoparticles to looking at devices that replace damaged body parts with artificial body parts using 3d printing. These are just a few of the many research projects that are happening now. Human enhancement will benefit many and create a healthier human population that will lead us into this new era of human research and development.

thread_title:  Benefits of Human Enhancement 

message: Are socially-constructed 'institutions' - such as clothing, language, education, money, buildings, cities, nationhood - properly considered either (a) enhancements or (b) precursors to enhancement?  Many of the same dimensions apply to them (advancing differences between persons in a population, or potentially reducing the impact of human differences and the ability or inability of any set of persons / individuals to be, become, or remain viable as living beings?

thread_title:  Social 'Enhancements' 

message: Evolution occurs in many ways, whether naturally (without human intervention) or by science. The article is informative but I feel there is an underlying fear that this technology will damage society.  If we look back in history, we have always had reservations about new technology; electricity caused worry, the automobile...these items have provided much progress, but also negative effects if studied closely.  It is good to use caution with new technology, but we cannot hinder its growth.
The links cited lead easily to more discussion and are well researched. Both benefits and concerns of Human Enhancement are represented. The authors highly educated and some are scientists themselves, and use technical language, so it is not easy to discern their individual stances on the subject, whether for or against. For the above average reader, there is a good collection of information to form a point of view on the subject.LustyMar (talk) 15:12, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I would like to add a brief heading outlining the subject of nootropic enhancers and mentioning a few of them in the heading with some in text links. I would like to get opinions as to where the content might fit best in the article. Thank you.AspiringScholar69 (talk) 02:01, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nootropics 

message: I have found in several articles that to understand Human enhancement advantages/disadvantages, it is important to understand and possibly alter societal views on eugenics, therapy, etc. I saw this from papers like "Moderate Eugenics and Human Enhancement" by Michael J Selgelid and "Human development or Human enhancement? A methodological reflection on capabilities and the evaluation of information technologies" by Mark Coeckelberg. I want to add a section on the Ethics heading about this topic. Is this a good idea?
