Immune System, Loaded With Remade T-cells, Vanquishes Cancer. Imaginary Futures. Participate in this event on Space Explorations, Telescopes and Imaginary Futures. Major scientific experiments like Space-missions, Large Particle Accelerators and massive Radio Telescopes are exploring our interest in outer space and its potential benefit to us. A search for resources on other planets to make up for our depletion of them on earth is driving recent Mars missions to search for water and potential living conditions. Dates: Wednesday, 14 September, 2011 - 14:00 - 18:00 Imaginary Futures Chair: Nina Czegledy2nd Chair: Marcus Neustetter Major scientific experiments like Space-missions, Large Particle Accelerators and massive Radio Telescopes are exploring our interest in outer space and its potential benefit to us. Writers and artists have for centuries hypothesized on scientific predictions such as planetary environments.

By - - NEWSBISCUIT.COM Added: Monday, 12 September 2011 at 11:11 AM An accidental release of highly dilute homeopathic waste from a research institute in Swindon has led to calls for the centre to be shut down. Plant operators have admitted responsibility for massive safety blunders after a spilled drop of an enormously dilute test product was cleaned by a caretaker, and in complete disregard of all safety procedures, allowed to enter the water system after he emptied his mop bucket down the drain.
Institute staff have been cooperating with homeopathy regulatory safety officers and a team of engineers from Thames Water – working around the clock to minimise the risk of further dilution. Still, the plant remains open – a spokesman claimed that their pioneering research into a cure for mild feelings of insecurity has reached a point that it must not be stopped. He then locked himself in his office and told reporters to leave him alone. Original article and other Newsbiscuit stories. Coffee binging ‘genetic’ “With caffeine impacting gene expression, we believe that caffeine then influences chemical pathways in the body.
" Image: salihguleriStockphoto As part of an international study, researchers from the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR) have identified a gene that plays a role in influencing how much coffee people drink. Dr Enda Byrne from QIMR said that coffee is the most popular beverage in the world and the study has shown there is a small genetic variant in the population that determines how people react to coffee and therefore explains why some people will consume coffee at higher levels and why others won’t drink it at all ”Our study found coffee consumption is not only influenced by genes, but caffeine can also affect the expression of genes,” Dr Byrne said. “With caffeine impacting gene expression, we believe that caffeine then influences chemical pathways in the body. “Twins help us understand how small genetic changes can have large impacts on our health.” Nanodiamond as a Vector for siRNA Delivery to Ewing Sarcoma Cells - Alhaddad - 2011 - Small.
