Hi K! If the pearl lodged inside the girl in your story had scientific relevance, there is ongoing scientific research studying cells and genes activity and how they relate to longevity. Can the pearl energize cells safely? How are internal organs affected? Is the goal to longevity achievable by reversing the aging process? Improving nutrition? These could be some factors in pinpointing which scientists you could theoretically list, in your project. Good luck in your research on this topic! --Shirley
