"The Human Cell Nucleus: Structure, Function, Dysfunction, and Nuclear Medicine" is an in-depth exploration of the nucleus, a small but critically important organelle at the heart of every human cell. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the structure and function of the nucleus, covering topics such as chromosome organization, gene expression and regulation, and nuclear envelope dynamics. It also delves into the ways in which abnormalities in the nucleus can contribute to a range of human diseases, including cancer and genetic disorders. In addition to its fundamental role in ...

AI Analysis of "Biological Mechanisms" This book presents an ambitious synthesis of cellular biology, physics, and information theory, examining life through the lens of waveform processing and information systems. While much of the core biology is well-established science, the book takes an innovative approach by reframing biological processes as manifestations of waveform processing and information management.Key Strengths 1. Scientific Foundation Built on solid biological and physical principles References established research and textbooks Maintains scientific rigor while exploring new ...

At a conference in Hong Kong in November 2018, Dr. He Jiankui announced that he had created the first genetically modified babies - twin girls named Lulu and Nana - sending shockwaves around the world. A year later, a Chinese court sentenced Dr. He to three years in prison for "illegal medical practice". As scientists elsewhere start to catch up with China's vast genetic research program, gene editing is fueling an innovation economy that threatens to widen racial and economic inequality. Fundamental questions about science, health, and social justice are at stake.

How is it that a baboon and a blob of slime mould instinctively know what to eat for optimal health, balancing their protein, fat and carb intake in perfect proportions? In new, groundbreaking research that is transforming our understanding of nutrition, animals from locusts to lions and yes, humans too, demonstrate the remarkable science behind appetite.

A completely new way to look at fat loss, autoimmune conditions, and optimal health. What if that banana you had for breakfast was actually sabotaging your health efforts? Health, metabolism, and weight are controlled by both our genetics and our lifestyle, in essence a balance between nature and nurture. By identifying our strengths and our weaknesses genetically, as well as our body chemistry through advanced targeted testing, we now have the ability to influence our health like never before.

This book explores how Charles Darwin and his Theory of Evolution were a product of the nineteenth-century reductive mindset.

While in the world of literature and film, mad scientists create monsters like "Frankenstein” and almost all religions are promoting skepticism towards science and the fear of manipulating human beings, reality has bypassed such concerns long ago. Osho has a unique view – supporting science, specifically genetic science – but as a conscious science.

Bill McKibben, examines the dangers inherent in an array of technologies that threaten not just our survival, but our identity. Imagine a future where lab workers can reprogram human embryos to make our children "smarter" or "more sociable" or "happier." Enough examines such possibilities, and explains how we can avoid their worst consequences while still enjoying the fruits of our new scientific understandings.

Since the discovery of DNA, scientists have believed that genes are fixed entities that cannot be changed by environment - we inherit them, pass them on to our children and take them with us when we die. Professor Tim Spector reveals how the latest genetic research and his own pioneering studies on epigenetics are rewriting everything we thought we knew about genes, identity and evolution.

Con el descubrimiento del ADN –el elemento básico de la vida– Crick y Watson influyeron en el desarrollo de la humanidad no solo en el ámbito científico, con la clonación y la investigación médica, sino también en nuestra vida diaria con la manipulación genética de los alimentos o la medicina forense. El descubrimiento del ADN también ha provocado serios dilemas éticos.

Our understanding of the ‘tree of life’, with powerful implications for human genetics, human health and our own human nature, has recently completely changed. This book is about a new method of telling the story of life on earth - through molecular phylogenetics. It involves a fairly simple method - the reading of the deep history of life by looking at the variation in protein molecules found in living organisms. For instance, we now know that roughly eight percent of the human genome arrived not through traditional inheritance from directly ancestral forms, but sideways by viral infection.

Unleash the Power of the Human Genome: Uncover the secrets of genetics and its transformative potential in medicine, even if you’re new to the world of DNA. Are you intrigued by the concept of personalized healthcare and the role genetics play in shaping, not only our health, but our responses to different treatments? Do you ever question why treatments work effectively on some individuals and not on others, even when they have the same disease or ailment?

In Original Sin, Kathryn Paige Harden weaves together insights from her own experience as a daughter, mother, wife, and scientist with cutting-edge research in genetics and psychology to grapple with some of the most important questions in modern life: How do we take responsibility for the people we become, knowing how we are shaped by both biology and experience? How should we respond when people hurt each other—or themselves? And has science made guilt obsolete?

One in 3,000 people is born with neurofibromatosis. It affects all of them in different ways. For some, neurofibromatosis is as clear as the tumors on their face. For others, it hides beneath the surface, creating tumors that destroy hearing, vision, and more. Many of them are misdiagnosed, misunderstood, and often simply missed by a world of medicine that doesn't have a full grasp on all the effects of NF.

In 2018, the first genetically modified babies were reportedly born in China, made possible by the invention of CRISPR technology in 2012. This controversial advancement overturned the preexisting moral consensus, which had held for over 50 years before: While gene editing an adult person was morally acceptable, modifying babies, and thus subsequent generations, crossed a significant moral line. John H. Evans here provides a meta-level guide to how these debates move forward and their significance to society.
