Test Subject

Dr. Todd Galveson rubbed his smooth face. The transformation was quite incredible. He had been reluctant to test his latest work on himself, but it was hard to find human test subjects. With his breakthrough, he was able to change someone at their base DNA level, and using that technology, he changed from a tall bearded white man into short Asian woman -- simply by changing a few genes and triggering them to reconstruct his body. It wasn’t exactly painful, but it wasn’t a pleasant feeling either, not something he cared to repeat right away, and that meant this would be his form for a while. He began thinking of all the implications of his new discovery. He could cure genetic diseases! That idea seemed so incredible. Of course, he had plenty of other ideas as well!
