| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Regenerative medicine have received a lot of attention in recent years, but many people didn’t have detail what is going on. These issue is excellent material for creating fiction. I talk about focus on “Science Fiction” As a example.There are varied views on bioscience research. In his work “Our Posthuman Future,” the American political scientist Francis Fukuyama posits that further use of biotechnology in humans should be halted. According to Fukuyama, intervening in life via genetic manipulation will lead to a loss of humanity. In order to seek solutions for these issues, we will deepen various philosophical discussions, and study from a multifaceted perspective the most advanced knowledge concerning stem cell biology and the status of life sciences introduced in science fiction comics and other popular culture, and continue to think about ‘the sanctity of life’, while cooperating with society by sharing information through the media.
