Modern technology is making it possible for scientists to discover new things about the human body and how we function. A video recorded image of microscopic waves is reported to drive white blood cells, or the soldier cells, toward invading, potentially harmful microorganisms. With hopeful findings like these, researchers are just one step closer to […]

Four notable institutions have contributed resources and experts in this research that aims to find out how bacteria can survive in such harsh temperatures. Bacteria has been known to survive in the extremes, from freezing to boiling temperatures. So because bacteria can be so resilient, diseases caused by them, like cystic fibrosis, a hereditary disease […]

Viruses can affect us in more ways than make us sick. These often contagious microorganisms upset the delicate reaction of our normal cells by forming and emitting stress granules within our cells. This is done by the inactivation of G3PB, a protein that is usually responsible for keeping out stress granules. With the advent and […]

Technology is getting sleeker and smaller. This not only applies to tech-gadgets like cellular phones and computer applications, but in the medical industry as well. The integration of modern technology and medical science is fast producing beneficial findings. From the discovery of the first compound microscope in 1590, to the identification of microorganisms we later […]

Stem cell research has come a long way with the modernization of traditional tools, techniques and laboratory equipment. There is also the creation of new technology to be able to make research reach new heights and achieve new findings.
