FUTURE OF DEUTENOMICS
Currently in development are the Deutenomics course as well as as the deutenomics cookbook.
Future directions of the field of deutenomics include:
Key mechanisms to uncover are those that can explain deuterium concentration in specific tissues that are in some cases way above natural abundance, which has been shown in the bones of grey seals for instance.

Neutron flux by low energy nuclear reactions (LENS) between elements is another layer to uncover. What are the conditions under which this quantum phenomenon can happen and with what frequency may this occur? Does this mean we can produce endogenous isotopes including deuterium?
Finally, it has been hypothesized that deuterium may generate UVC light in our bodies, this is very interesting and could potentially explain fundamental parts of our body.
