- The channel debated whether larger brains necessarily yield higher intelligence, with kanzure noting that “nobody has figured out superintelligence” and fenn arguing that neuron count and hierarchy depth are the key variables, not absolute size.  
- A 2013 study was highlighted in which human glial-progenitor cells injected into neonatal mice produced ~20 % performance gains in learning tasks (Han et al., Cell Stem Cell 2013; follow-up J. Neurosci 2014), prompting discussion of creating a cell bank of diverse human glial progenitors for potential human or canine embryo grafting.  
- Extensive links to classic and modern limb-development papers were shared, including BMP-2/4 overexpression altering chick-limb morphology (1996), FGF-induced ectopic limb outgrowths (1995), and 1938 limb-transplantation experiments in chicken embryos, all framed as precedents for radical developmental bioengineering.  
- Xenotransplant safety was questioned: kanzure cited a 2001 study finding no PERV transmission to non-human primates after pig-organ grafts and wondered why eGenesis still prioritizes PERV removal, while JayDugger recalled George Church citing PERV as the major barrier.  
- Brain–behavior anatomical correlations were posted, showing that larger primary visual cortex (V1) predicts greater visual working-memory capacity and that gray-matter density in inferior parietal lobule and left insula tracks spatial versus object memory, respectively.  
- A human-neuronal-chimeric mouse model generated by engrafting iPSC-derived primitive neural progenitors was circulated (PMC5111502) as a platform for testing human-specific neural circuits in vivo.  
- kanzure floated the idea of acquiring “four million human femurs” from bankrupt graveyards as raw material for unspecified experiments, and solene jokingly suggested the Verdun ossuary as a source.  
- Epigenetic influences on adult phenotype were underscored with a mouse study showing that early-embryo cytoplasmic environment alone can shift later-life traits, raising the prospect of human-clone epigenetic testing.  
- Links to cryptographic research included a newly revealed long-secret Bitcoin key, a paper on “unfairly linear” Schnorr signatures, and a Medium post advocating BLS signatures as superior to Schnorr.
