      I would call it the super cell, imagine this someone develops a blood disorder that makes them very ill the super cell could destroy and problems it find. This could destroy kidney problems, heart problems, cancer and many more.

      Seeing as Matthew has already invented the supercell, I would invent a “hoverboard” like in Back to the Future, so we could fly in a low carbon way to work every day. I dont think that the “future” is real until we get hoverboards. Ooooh and a robot to do all of my housework.

      I would create the technology to ACTUALLY make a real jurassic park!

      I would want to make something to cure world hunger – like a plant that doesn’t need fertilizer (which requires a lot of energy), that grows in even the harshest conditions (lets reclaim deserts/chemically polluted environments), that contains all the nutrition you need (eg. all of your 5 a day) AND that tastes like whatever you feel like at the time (chocolate fudge cake for me right now.

      (realistically speaking, people are already working on plants that can make their own nitrogen and plant that can grow in harsh conditions – i don’t know that anyone is developing plants that taste like brownies though.)
