Bacteria that break down plastic already exist, both naturally and synthetically. Optimizing those is one of the most popular student projects in my university. Hardly a millennium problem.

> 02 - Cryopreservation

Demonstrate the ability to cryopreserve and recover live wild-type mice with high viability.

> 06 - Somatic limb regeneration

Demonstrate the ability to regenerate lost limbs in adult wild-type mice.
