The article, "The Biologist Who Extends Life Spans", is an interview with biologist Cynthia Kenyon on the subject of extending life spans. She has extended the life span of nematodes, as they had lived for more than 125 days, about six times more than the usual life span of the worms, whic...
Throughout the years, many unknown questions have been answered through the use of science. The atomic bomb, which ended World War II, was explored through physics, and other discoveries such as the atom, DNA, and photosynthesis have facilitated technological advancements for society. While all typ...

The idea of a perfect race was first thought of way back during World War II, by Adolf Hitler. He wanted a nation of tall, healthy, intelligent, blonde-haired humans and these were the beginnings of biological engineering. The experiments carried out on the Jews, in the concentration camps, were ut...
What is life?" The question has been asked innumerable times but has been answered to the satisfaction of few. Science is based on the experience that nature gives intelligent answers to intelligent questions. To senseless questions, nature gives senseless answers - or no answers at all. If nature h...

Introduction On February 24, 1997, the whole world was shocked by the news that Scottish scientists had successfully cloned a sheep. Dolly an artificially cloned mammal was born a star. After the shock, that cloning was not only a possibility but a reality, wore off the out cry against human clon...
Human Genome Project The Human Genome Project (HGP) is an international 13 year effort that began in October of 1990. The main objective of the project is to map the entire human DNA sequence. The project was planned to last 15 years, but rapid technological advances have moved the completion dat...

Genetic Engineering: The Frontier Science is a still somewhat obscure creature that continues to evolve, radically changing the face of mankind perhaps faster than it's creator. The magnificent world of science has witnessed many profound breakthroughs and advances in this past century, bu...
The Family Curse Every family has a curse, and mine is no different. My father's bloodline carries PKD: Polycystic Kidney Disease. I did not ask to be born with it, just as my father had not, but genetics had other ideas. This disease has taken my grandfather and my father's health. At the...

ENCYCLOPÆDIA BRITANNICA reproduction process by which organisms replicate themselves. In a general sense reproduction is one of the most important concepts in biology: it means making a copy, a likeness, and thereby providing for the continued existence of species. Although...
Cloning In the movie Jurassic Park, we watched as man was able to recreate the existence of dinosaurs using blood and DNA preserved many years ago. This process of taking cells and using it to recreate a lifeform is called cloning. A few year ago man was blest with the discovery of cloning. But with...
Human cloning in its simplest form is the artificial process of making a genetic copy of a human being. It is the extraction of one organisms DNA being replicated and grown to be an exact copy of the original. This could mean that at some point in the future, any person could have an identical twin ...
