Transhumanism is an intellectual and cultural campaign that trusts humans can, and ought to, enhance the human condition through artificial technology. One of the center ideas in transhumanists thought process is immortality. Through genetic nanotechnology, engineering human cloning, everlasting life may soon be conceivable.
