Expect machine washable clothing that can track you’re your heart rate, BMI, and a host of your bodily functions. Turns out smartwatches may have a limited shelf life after all: in the near future their existence could be reduced to a redundancy since the very clothes that you wear could have the capability to monitor…
Resetting stem cells to iPS cells supposedly holds the key to bolstering our body’s overall health. Scientists have managed to get it working on mice, let’s hope it works on us humans as well. As we age, the capacity of the body to produce blood diminishes. This is why diseases linked to immune deficiencies, such…
We could just be two years away from seeing a “mammophant”. Having successfully extracted sequenceable DNA from a pair of Woolly Mammoth carcasses dug out from Siberia’s permafrost in 2014, a team of Harvard researchers have now disclosed, they are tantalizingly close to cloning the extinct animal. The Harvard researchers made the claim just two weeks…
Stem cell has significant benefits despite the controversies surrounding it. Do take a look at the link in the video. In a momentous development researchers have created a hybrid part-human part-pig embryo for the first time in human history. The study has been published in the journal Cell. Researchers were successfully able to inject human…
According to the study, even an insignificant alteration of the ant’s DNA can impact its social behaviour. The study has the potential to impact research on complex biological systems such as autism, depression and even cancer. What is the percentage of societal behavior dictated by genetics, could be a million dollar question. Before you jump forward…
This new sensor array system could potentially lead to new breakthroughs in biopharmaceutical treatments. Although carbon nanotubes have since long been associated with new breakthroughs in computer science, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have now found an alternative use for them – medicine and chemical engineering. Researchers at MIT have published a paper…
The technology could open up new chapters in understanding brain activity and medical diagnosis in realtime. Although Scientists have long suspected that light can create its own conical wakes like the one created by a sonic boom, the problem has always been, if this is so, how would you be able to capture it with…
The development could eventually lead to the discovery of new medicines and “much more”. In a significant development for medical science, researchers at the Scripps Research Institute have produced the world’s first stable semi-synthetic organism. While earlier it had created organisms with synthetic DNA letters they however could not keep their artificial base pair in…
Turns out your next gen HRM will have Silly Putty coated with graphene.
You can now chip on the war against AIDS by buying select Apple products. While Apple has made a tradition of marking World AIDS Day with a campaign to donate to the Product (RED) charity, this year it has decided to go an extra mile in its 10th year of support. This year, on top of its…
