      Chitosan is a real thing and sounds interesting, but the “Visual Nervous Processor System” is no part of the brain I’ve ever heard of.

      Expect a lot of biotech papers authored by Chinese geniuses that are incomprehensible to anybody. None of the limitations on other high-tech fields (such as semiconductors) in China apply to biotech. In fact, they have some key advantages, like regional clinics that get hooked into public insurance & end up with gargantuan datasets. This will only get better as medicine is less centered around China’s east coast, but for the time being that bottleneck has some upsides too.
