Wonders of Science 2024, November

Employee of Ohio State University (USA) Daniel Gallego-Perez - author of the pioneering development of the Tissue Nanotransfection (TNT) gene chip, capable of repairing or even regenerating any damaged human organ, published

Some scientists' plans look like they were taken from the pages of a science fiction novel. What one Dutch neuroengineer is working on now can give people immortality

The startup Neurable, in collaboration with Estudiofuture, has developed a game in which you don't need to use either a controller or even a body - only thought has to be controlled

The scientific journal Nature recently published an article by London geneticist Linda Partridge that experiments with blood transfusions of young people to older people are not a joke, but a potential medical know-how

One of the mice received the new anti-aging drug and the other did not. The second mouse showed signs of old age - its fur began to fall out and grow dull, its eyes dimmed. The first mouse remained the same vigorous, had a thick coat and normal vision

Many inventors drew inspiration from the drawings of the great Leonardo da Vinci. Getting amazing results at times. One of the most famous single-track cars - "Dynasphere" by Briton John Parves, should be attributed to such inventions.Having made and tested a small sample with an electric motor, John realized that the idea worked and the second sample was already with a gasoline engine and gearbox

When you come across another scientific program in which they talk about experiments on animals, it all seems like something fantastic and unreal. And when you learn about such experiments on a person - can't believe your ears

American Tina Gibson is 26 years old, and a few years ago she was sure that she would not have to experience bearing a child and natural childbirth

True, while such a service is available only to residents of the capital, however, as the head physician of the Moscow perinatal medical center "Mother and Child" T. Normantovich says, the trouble is great - Start. The main thing is that this method justifies itself and takes root in other maternity hospitals

The new 3D print of the mouse skull allows scientists to directly view and control the functioning of the rodent's brain.There is still a lot we don't know about the human brain. Finding a simple way to track the activity of his nerve cells, neurons and synapses in real time seemed a difficult, almost impossible task until recently

Scientists have worked for many years to integrate the advances of robotics into delicate medical procedures

Technology from the Star Trek sci-fi universe continues to infiltrate our real life. We've already read about the medical tricorder, heard about the development of the warp drive, evaluated food printers

American researchers have created a microchip that will control the birth rate. The new system assumes that the drug delivery device can be remotely turned on or off, and each implant can last 16 years

For a solid proof of concept, a team of scientists led by Martin Fussenegger of the Swiss Higher Technical School of Zurich (ETH) developed a system for treating type 2 diabetes in mice by sipping coffee

Experts from California have found a way to stop pregnancy for a certain period or pause. So far, scientists have managed to do this only for 30 days, after which the fetus developed in a completely natural way

The development of scientists from the University of Manchester can provide millions of people with access to clean fresh water

Registration of the electrical activity of the brain made it possible to create and record melodies by concentrating on the necessary elements

Scientists from the University of Oulu have discovered a new material that can convert various types of energy into electricity

Jania Walker, 40, from Los Angeles, went on vacation to Honduras in June 2017 and a puma attacked her finger at a wildlife sanctuary

A new type of stem cells is revolutionizing the concept of regenerative medicine, writes The Daily Mail. The restoration of organs and tissues will resemble the process of growing limbs in a salamander, which is able to regenerate bones and soft tissues

The new technique will allow avoiding the amputation of wounded limbs Canadian biologists from the University of Montreal announced the discovery of a hormone that, when added to human blood, makes the cells of the immune system regenerate at an accelerated rate

The work on the creation of treatments that can rejuvenate parts of the human body has moved to the next level thanks to a new study

The regenerative capacity of our body is very high. However, this is true only if we are talking about minor damage. The same deep cuts after healing are often overgrown not with ordinary skin, but with rough scar tissue. Scientists around the world are regularly looking for a way to improve the regenerative capabilities of the human body (especially since the animal world is full of such examples)

The kidneys are not as romantic as the heart, and they are not as high as the brain, but these organs, the size of a human fist, play a very important role. The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste and removing excess fluid from the body

Why go to the dentist and endure all this torture with injections and drills, if you can force your teeth to simply regenerate destroyed enamel and other damaged tissues? Sounds like something from a fantasy movie, doesn't it

The US National Academy of Sciences, commissioned by the Department of Defense, published a report that reveals the danger of military applications of modern biotechnology

In the coming years, innovative brothels with sex robots may appear in Britain

Businessman and innovator Juan Henriquez spoke about a future in which people, thanks to genetic engineering, will be able to survive in extreme conditions and learn to edit memories

Quantum computers are still a dream, but the era of quantum communications has arrived. New experiment carried out in Paris shows for the first time that quantum communication is superior to classical methods of information transmission

Quantum physicists from Purdue University in Indiana and Tsinghua University in Beijing have embarked on an ambitious experiment - teleportation of a living organism, Unknown Country reports

A biohacker from Australia named Meow-Ludo Disco Gamma Meow-Meow implanted a travel card into his arm, cutting out a chip and placing it under the skin on his left hand

What do people most often complain about now? The lack of time, the huge amount of information that is very difficult to keep in mind, the limited capabilities of the body, which do not allow to do everything in such a rapidly developing digital world

Biohackers claim that in the near future any person, without special education, will be able to decode the genome, create genetically modified organisms, prevent senile diseases and even, scary to think, - push your own

While the movie screens are busy with the on-screen confrontation of superheroes, the military is already preparing to show the world very real super soldiers

At the end of November 2017, the US Department of Health issued a warning about the dangerous consequences of experiments in genetic engineering at home: an open letter mentions the risks associated with trials of homemade drugs in humans. The fuss in the ministry began after biohackers, one after another, began demonstratively injecting themselves with untested substances in order to induce genetic changes

Electrodes implanted into the cockroach's nervous system force the insect to obey the commands of the owner - man-with-control-panel

Discussing with an expert how scientifically effective attempts to change human nature are. The publication under the headline "I am 32 years old, and I spent $ 200 thousand on" biohacking "made the effect of an exploding bomb on social networks

Scientists from Novosibirsk have identified a chemical that turns a cockroach into a zombie, and have developed an antidote to return the insect to normal life

You may not have heard of Hanson Robotics, but if you are reading this, you have surely seen their work. This company built the robot Sophia, a humanoid android that has repeatedly appeared at public events

For some they are an example of scientific progress, for others - potential killers. Recent polls show that a third of UK residents are afraid of too smart cars. The truth is said to be more incredible than fiction
