"We took this gene and boosted its activity in different cells and tissues of the fly and asked whether this impacts the aging process," said David Walker, an assistant professor of integrative biology and physiology at UCLA and a senior author of the study. "We discovered that when we boost PGC-1 within the fly's digestive tract, the fly lives significantly longer. We also studied neurons, muscle and other tissue types and did not find life extension; this is telling us there is something important about the digestive tract."

A lower self, an eternal self.
The fate of the body is immaterial.
The lower self is often not comfortable with the idea though.
Not that you should take your current incarnation lightly.
It's where you get to work this equation out.

DARPA, check out what they achieved with Bio-Design and the stuff them mention is the unclassified stuff and this is now a few years old, almost 95% complete then, what now......

I searched all over youtube and unfortunately could not find a video on DARPA's Bio-Design project but in that search I did come across something that might be interesting, seems a college has started a multi-disciplinary course called "BioDesign" lol, but focus is on MBA,MD'S, and engineers. Here's the youtube video:
Hope this helps a little.

No problem,
I Agree though that your undertaking of this study is best served in interdisciplinary skills i.e.: biology, quantum physics, metallurgy, and engineering combined.
Good luck in your endeavors and always remember what people say is impossible today, someone will prove them wrong one day......
But I ask this, as it is a concern. Even if we can make flesh immortal, whats the point as now you would have to make the world immortal and magically free from all pollution and ails and with Fukoshima disaster I have my doubts all the nuclear accidents can truly be contained and dealt with and more getting weaker by the day and that's just one thing upon millions that need correction to make the earth inhabitable for immortal beings.
This density is enough just in the time we have, as someone else said this flesh is just a vehicle for our spirit, we are spiritual creatures.
May you aspire in whatever you choose to do.
