Can the human body be mutated using viruses or other means?
Well, stupid title here, couldn't really think of quite the right words. Anyway, my friend and I were talking about stuff found ourselves wondering if it would it be possible to modify a virus to change the cells in a human body to preform an action, such as curing baldness, or eventually being able to modify anything you wished, like changing eye color, or modifying how a face looked, ect. Virus is kind of specific, so if there was another method to reaching this, I guess that would work as well. Just kind of wanted to learn more about the topic, to know if there are any studies currently in affect, what exactly it would be called, ect.
Thanks!
