Congratulations, excellent article. I am a biologist, as well as a writer, and I really enjoy everything related to science. Ectogenesis is exciting. Thank you very much for sharing!!!
Thank you very much for the kind words. I was actually surprised about Ectogenesis and Ectolife. I didn't know those were actual fields people were pursuing outside of science fiction. Even considering that this technology was in development since the 50s was jaw-dropping.
Welcome back, I'm so sorry to hear things got so rough...
However, public research into this design for artificial fetus development was ethically impossible.
Why should it be any more controversial than an incubator, if used as intended? A baby who is putting the mother and or itself in danger could be removed, and put in the artificial uterus. As could one who may require multiple surgeries.
That Ectolife thing is scary... Sure, it would help people who want kids, but there are other ways. And what would it do to us as a species?

I write controversial because nothing is as innocent as things seem. For the humanistic reasons for pursuing ectogenesis, I see the tech as a miracle. Outside of that, a very cautious approach is warranted lest the darker possibilities of the technology comes to fruition.

True, but just like cloning, if a group is determined and well financed enough, what will stop them? I think the best approach might be to proceed, but only after laws (as global as possible) are firmly in place about the usage and how far to take the research?

True. Safeguards for the tech are warranted before moving forward on the research. You are right in pointing out wealth and resources. There wouldn’t be much to stop someone.
It's unfortunate, but we are already fully capable of destroying this planet. Going back to what it was like several hundred years ago simply isn't an option.
You must be killin' it out here! @wrestlingdesires just slapped you with 1.000PIMP, @scholaris. You earned 1.000PIMP for the strong hand. They're getting a workout and slapped 1/1 possible people today.
Thank you to Sam for reaching out and making you not forget about Hive, the blockchain misses you.
I hope and pray that you continue to get better with your health and that your family's friends get all the help they need to resolve the health issue.

With the way technological advancement is going, I think a project such as Ectolife has a great chance of success.
Thank you @funshee. I take things day-by-day right now and am noticing progress as the pain lessens. I didn't realize how weak I got until I started doing the prescribed exercises after surgery.
I also think Ectolife has a great chance of success. It's just a matter of willpower and funding.
Do you know what I got out of this post? That you are on the way to getting so much better, my friend!!! And this is cause for great joy. Your body is being made new one piece at a time. I know that you will still have struggles to endure but I am super proud of your courage and determination. You always were one to throw yourself into research and it seems like you have found workable solutions for the issues that you have been dealing with this past year and a bit. I hope you recover beautifully. And I am so glad that you are writing. It is very cathartic and we miss you here on Hive. You are a leading light in the darkness... I'm glad that you are still around on Discord and in the comments on Hive. I can't wait for your radiation therapy to start and for you to start reclaiming your hands💗
I am so sorry to hear about your loved one and their ordeal. Having you walking beside them through this awful time must mean the world to them. I'm praying for all of you.
As for Ectogenesis and Ectolife? Whilst I can see where there could be benefits to parents who are unable to conceive, using such a facility when one is quite capable of bearing children naturally is like falling down a very slippery slope. I think the grey areas are too large and the ethical boundaries too tenuous at this stage. One of the things that stands out for me is the loss of connection and emotional and human warmth that a baby should feel in the womb. I appreciate that things have progressed far with AI, but perhaps there are some areas that it should not dare to tread. Some places where it should not have the capacity to go head-to-head with God.
What can I say, thank you for your kind words. I am on the way to getting better, but the road appears to be very long. Just last night I ended up in the emergency room because of complications from my diabetes medication. The doctor appeared to attribute my nausea and dizziness to an old heart problem so I felt it was in my best interest to get out of there. When all their tests came out negative I just packed up and headed home for the night.
For now, I move forward until I'm balanced again. I'll have to work with my primary doctor to get the right dosages for my meds. Now that I've lost so much weight what I was taking before clearly is too strong for me now.
Ectogenesis is definitely a slippery slope. I feel that science will continue to test that slope right up until they're ready to start growing human embryos. Scientists, I believe, will first attempt to grow smaller animals like mice from conception until full-term birth before they attempt it with humans. It would make the best sense and allow the scientific community to debate the issue.
I think that's a good approach - review your dosages as a starting point; see what your doc has to say. Remember what they say... put on your own oxygen mask first 🤗😘So look after YOU, my friend... and then you can use what energy remains to look after everyone else. Much love... 💗 !LUV !ALIVE !hivebits

Wow! I didn't know what you were going through. I hope that you continue to improve!
Thanks. It appears that I have a karmic debt to pay. I didn't see how bleak things were until I started writing things down.
Reviewing Ectolife and Ectogenesis made me think about Zeelis and the PsyberX tournaments. Not sure why, but I can imagine a story exists there.
Hit me up with the idea on discord
Sure thing.
Your post is very informative
