It's no secret that the cells of our body have a built-in ability to withstand various negative factors. But, unfortunately, this useful function does not always allow you to fully "repel an attack"

Remember your first 3D movie you watched in cinematography? Isn't it, he seemed to you a real fantasy, and therefore exceeded all expectations

If you do not take into account the presence of useful microflora, then our body does not really like it when bacteria settle in it. But have you ever wondered how bacteria infect our cells with you? After all, just being there is clearly not enough

The news published below is certainly important and interesting. There is only one thing … In whose hands will be such a tool for changing the type of "Homo sapiens"? This is perhaps the main question.However, there is another question: under capitalism, when profit is the main goal of corporations that hire scientists to develop new technologies, under these conditions, are the possible side effects on the health of future generations sufficiently investigated?

In February of this year, the journal Science Translational Medicine published a very promising material: an experimental vaccine against cancer has shown high efficacy in trials in laboratory mice

I am constantly informing you of the news that Russia has created modern and best equipment in the world, reaped record harvests, and are making unique technological discoveries

Just like practically all independent developers of "wrong" devices from the point of view of official science, there is very little reliably verified information about the works of Royal Raymond Rife. Let's try to consider - who is Rife and what he invented

Oncological diseases annually claim hundreds of thousands of human lives, drugs to combat tumor diseases act, as a rule, according to the same principle: they kill all cells and tissues of the body indiscriminately

In his address to the nation in 2016, US President Barack Obama announced that he intends to make every effort to help people overcome such an insidious disease as cancer. Vice President Joe Biden has been appointed to lead this project

Researchers have shown in practice that brain stimulation can speed up learning

Every person has thousands of genetic mutations that, under certain conditions, can cause serious diseases, including cancer. Some bad genes were inherited from their parents, while others arose spontaneously at the stage of embryo formation

After that, his consciousness began to recover very quickly. A group of specialists representing the University of California at Los Angeles successfully applied the technology of brain stimulation with ultrasound pulses to bring a patient out of a coma

Typically, patients who have been in a coma for a long time face less chance of waking up. However, a new study, published on futurism.com, has shown that using electrodes to deliver electrical shocks to a specific region of the brain associated with consciousness can offer hope in even the most seemingly hopeless cases

A sensational discovery in medicine: American biologists have found a cure for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Scientists from Boston have learned how to program stem cells for recovery (i.e

The idea that young blood has almost magical properties took place at the dawn of modern society. However, some experiments in this area are still ongoing. Of course, no one goes down to medieval rituals with blood transfusions of babies to old people

One of the most unpleasant manifestations of Alzheimer's disease is the gradual loss of memory and memories, which radically changes the entire person's personality. However, it is quite possible that soon we will be able to deal with it

Researchers Says Major Breakthrough in Battle Against Alzheimer's after Neutralizing Most Significant Gene Responsible for Disease

Scientists have long been trying to develop an "antidote" for Alzheimer's disease. And now a breakthrough statement has been made in this matter

Every medicine under development is always tested for side effects. Sometimes it may turn out that the side effects of a new drug are more dangerous than the ailment that the drug is supposed to fight

Blueberries may be effective in treating patients with cognitive impairments, but they are unlikely to help ordinary "forgetful" people Scientists at the Academic Health Center at the University of Cincinnati in the US, in two studies, found out

Scottish scientists have named an effective way to combat memory loss in Alzheimer's disease. Experts from the University of Edinburgh published the results of a new study in the pages of the scientific publication The Journal of Neuroscience

Television has become so firmly and tightly in our life that it is simply impossible to imagine the life of a modern person without a television. It is all the more interesting to learn about how and where it all began. A trial batch of Soviet TV sets (B-2 brand, 20 pieces), developed by engineer Anton Yakovlevich Breitbart, was released on May 10, 1932 at the Leningrad plant "Comintern"

TV8-301 is a small black and white Sony TV. It is notable for being the world's first fully transistorized TV without a lens for viewing with an eight-inch screen. It was also portable and had a compartment for two 6V lead-acid batteries.- Salik

Information security expert Natalya Kasperskaya on data vulnerabilities, corporate surveillance and shorter workweeks.Russia will not be able to avoid repeating someone else's experience in the development of information technologies, but this will not prevent us from using our software products and they cannot be turned off from the outside

Virtual reality, contrary to popular belief, - it is not only a tool for entertainment and video games, but also a great way to gain new knowledge and skills

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is rightfully considered the "plague of the 21st century." Despite significant advances in many areas of medicine and an improvement in the quality of life, humanity is still losing in the fight against this insidious virus

It all began in 1920 with the creation of a new organization "Vril" within the Thule occult society (the existence of which official science hides to this day). The most common version is that it was a community of female mediums who contacted either aliens or ancient civilizations

There is such a saying: if the flu is treated - it will go away in 7 days, and if you do not treat - during the week. Unfortunately, no matter how hard we try, but picking up the virus, we won't be able to recover quickly

Scientists are regularly forced to develop new types of flu vaccines due to the fact that this virus adapts extremely well to the drugs that oppose it and mutates

Japanese pharmaceutical company Shionogi has developed baloxavir-marboxil, one dose of which cures the flu in one day

Engineers at the University of Cincinnati in the United States are working to create an innovative carbon fabric for clothing that can charge a variety of electronic devices, Science Daily reports

In September 2013, on the air of the American channel CBS, Professor Michio Kaku spoke about weather management. Presenter: Can you really control the weather with lasers?

Storage technologies are not standing still - magnetic tape reels have given way to hard drives, which are being replaced by three-dimensional memory circuits. However, no matter how paradoxical it sounds, the basis for new approaches in this area may be a mechanism as ancient as life on Earth

3.10. CHARACTERISTICS AND POSSIBILITIES OF INFORMATIONYou can afford to go this far. How long can you return- Salik.bizMick JaggerInformation is a very interesting phenomenon, we weighed the audio cassette, then recorded it, and got a large mass, then erased it and weighed it again, and got less weight

Data storage systems are developing more and more actively every year. Back in the early 2000s, DVDs were sufficient for most needs. Then came the era of Blu-Ray and SSD drives
