From the BBC & Discovery this series of clips looks to the future and the possibility of humans living forever. We all know that we will grow old and die. Our awareness of ourselves brings with it the knowledge that death is inevitable, a natural process, an integral stage in life and in evolution. Scientists are trying to understand and master the complex chemical signals which control this growth. There is even a possibility of altering nature at a much more fundamental level. We could identify the gene responsible for aging and remove it before we are born.
