The international research project "Genome Project-write" has announced its intention to launch a project to develop cells resistant to viruses, radiation, aging and cancer. "Our project represents a step on the way to producing highly safe cells that have a profound impact on human health," said George Church , a genetic expert at Harvard Medical School and a member of ProjectRight Genome. Jeff Buick, director of the New York-Langon Medical Center Institute of Genetics and project member, said, "We are strongly motivated to believe that we can produce cells that are resistant to all known viruses, as well as incorporate 'other features such as cancer resistance and infectious protein molecules.' Recoding the human genome to make it resistant to viruses, the first step in the project's most ambitious goal, is the production of any human genome in the
