Part 12/14:
While some biohacking approaches are relatively low risk and regulated, others—particularly DIY experiments—pose serious safety concerns. Without proper scientific oversight, individuals might inadvertently cause harm, such as infections, nerve damage, or unforeseen health issues. Regulatory agencies are increasingly concerned about unvetted self-experimentation.
The Broader Implications
Broader scientific developments like stem cell therapy for age-related degeneration exemplify the serious investment and hope placed in biohacking. Singapore’s focus on advancing regenerative medicine and neurological health reflects its recognition that an aging population will demand novel solutions.
