Genetic Engineering
For years, scientists have struggled to create the perfect
human. A human with enhanced senses and a perfect immune system. The first attempt the
Foundation tried to bring together man and machine was with bionic implants. Through their
advanced research, many tests were conducted with bionic implants. Though initially
successful, it was soon discovered that the human body was not as willing to accept its
"man made" components as originally thought. The rejecting rate of the implants
was near 90%. Finding the perfect human to work was thought to be impossible.
After suffering many setbacks on their bionic implant project,
they decided to start research into genetic engineering. It was thought that if the human
body was manipulated at the gene level, it would prove to be a greater success than adding
foreign parts.
For over 3 years, the Foundation conducted many tests until they
perfected the process. They were able to create the perfect human; Ken Savage. He was
superior in every way to a normal human being, a Megaman. He had enhanced
hearing, sight, speed, and memory among other qualities.
Even though the Foundation dropped the Megaman project
in the early 80's, they continued research into the process for various other reasons.
Today, the Foundations genetic engineering process is in use all over the world. From
helping humans to be born with no medical defects to food manipulation, the process has
helped save thousands of lives.
The Foundation will continue to be a forerunner in the science of
genetic engineering and will also continue to share that knowledge for the advancement of
human kind. For more information on genetic engineering, please see the links section of
