The Intelligent Body: Exploring Programmable Immunity and the Future of Sustained Resilience
Modern medicine remains largely reactive, relying on external interventions to address pathological states after they have already manifested. The Intelligent Body explores a paradigm shift: the transition from biology as a fixed, immutable blueprint to biology as a programmable, responsive platform.
The goal of this event is to move the conversation beyond “health” toward resilience by design. We’ll discuss the engineering challenges, ethical considerations of resident genetic circuits, and how Scottish innovation can advance the idea of a body that manages its own defence.
