Moi non plus ! Le rapport entre la biologie humaine et une combinaison de plongée n\'est pas très clair. Certaines personnes pensent peut-être que l\'utilisation de carbone et silicone en contact direct avec le corps humain est dangereux, mais l\'auteur écarte ce genre d\'inquiétude.???

je crois avoir trouvé un articile qui permet de mieux comprendre cette phrase :

This past week in Maine about 500 people gathered at the Pop! Tech 2003 conference to discuss the future of technology. Many of the conference speakers argued that biotech will be the driving technological force of the 21st century. The consensus of the conference was that the combination of advances in silicon microelectronics and molecular biology will lead to unprecedented genetic engineering advances.
