- Millionaire biohacker Brian Johnson, 48, claims to have created a "clone" of himself as a newborn baby using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology.
- The tech entrepreneur, known for extreme health protocols, said this process could offer a new way to reverse ageing and develop treatments.
- Johnson's "baby-bryan" currently exists in a petri dish, with the aim of testing therapies, growing organs for transplantation, and injecting young cells.
