OK far fetched. How about a cell that creates laser beams?

One very interesting part is this ...

Biolasers could also have medical applications. Some treatments, such as photodynamic therapy for cancer patients, use external lasers to stimulate drugs to be released close to a tumor. "You have a drug that attacks a tumor when you apply light," Gather said. "Using a laser light force from the inside would make this more efficient."


I see a bright future for this technology
