The goal of curing diseases like Parkinson's using cells generated from a patient's own body has come a step closer. Researchers have successfully reprogrammed human nerve cells back to an embryo-like state using just one gene.

International Stem Cell Corporation (ISCO) applauds the recent announcement by doctors at Sweden's Karolinska University Hospital on the creation of the world's first artificial trachea; ISCO would like our followers to understand that the concept of growing cells on a scaffold to treat diseases is showing success in our own research as exemplified by the following: 1) Collaboration with Cytograft in growing artificial blood vessels for treatment of lower limb ischemia.

A new type of stem cell discovered in the prostate of adult mice can be a source of prostate cancer, according to a new study by researchers

The Southern California Investor Conference is the only conference focused exclusively on the wealth of exciting growth companies from Southern California. The annual one-day conference features more than 35 companies from the region presenting to attendees from throughout the nation. The conference is open to the public and investors can find a list of 2011 presenting companies and registration information at www.CaliforniaStocks.com

Stem cell researchers must take more care in identifying true pluripotency in reprogrammed human cells, according to a study published online today (October 11) in Nature Biotechnology. The paper outlines strict molecular criteria for recognizing pluripotency, and warns that relying on just a single marker will muddle the field.

The results of this pilot study suggest that the biofield helaing under study can induce cell death of brain cancer cells. Click to read more about Trivedi Science.

December 9th, 02005 - Sam Harris"The View From The End Of The World"This is an audio only presentation. This talk took place in the Conference Center Golden Gate Room, San Francisco. Quote: With gentle demeanor and tight argument, Sam Harris carried an overflow audience into the core of one of the crucial issues of our time: What makes some religions lethal? How do they employ aggressive irrationality to justify threatening and controlling non-believers as well as believers? What should be our response? Harris began with Christianity. In the US, Christians use irrational arguments about a soul in the 150 cells of a 3-day old human embryo to block stem cell research that might alleviate the suffering of millions. In Africa, Catholic doctrine uses tortured logic to actively discourage the use of condoms in countries ravaged by AIDS. "This is genocidal stupidity," Harris said. Faith trumps rational argument. Common-sense ethical intuition is blinded by religious metaphysics. In the US, 22% of the population are CERTAIN that Jesus is coming back in the next 50 years, and another 22% think that it's likely. The good news of Christ's return, though, can only occur following desperately bad news. Mushroom clouds would be welcomed. "End time thinking," Harris said, "is fundamentally hostile to creating a sustainable future." Harris was particularly critical of religious moderates who give cover to the fundamentalists by not challenging them. The moderates say that all is justified because religion gives people meaning in their life. "But what would they say to a guy who believes there's a diamond the size of a refrigerator buried in his backyard? The guy digs out there every Sunday with his family, cherishing the meaningthe quest gives them." "I've read the books," Harris said. "God is not a moderate." The Bible gives strict instructions to kill various kinds of sinners, and their relatives, and on occasion their entire towns. Yet slavery is challenged nowhere in the New or

The non-hematological cancers can be cured through surgery, but this is not always safe, so before applying this method, make sure you are getting good treatment. The Trivedi Effect® is capable of killing the cancer cells through healing, promote the viability of healthy cells and reverse the effect of mutation.

A collaborative study by researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies uncovered that the tumor suppressor p53 not only stops cells that could become cancerous in their tracks but also controls somatic cell reprogramming.

"Tissue engineering is often thought of as a "Frankenstein-type" science where scientists build living tissues from otherwise "dead" tissues and organs. However, current advances in technology mean bringing life to cadaveric tissues is becoming more and more sophisticated: less of the lightning strikes and more stem cells and 3D printing!"

The Singularity is a VERY rapid intelligence explosion. Each year we progress quicker. Visualize perfect immortality, eternal youth for everyone, no wrinkles. Every illness will be cured. Everything will be free, no poverty. We will colonize and explore Space. Our bodies and minds will be improved via genetic and technological modification. It's all about Artificial Intelligence, synthetic biology, biotech, nanotech, nanobots, robotics, 3D-Printing, DNA manipulation, Stem Cells. The Singularity is massively awesome utopia, perfect happiness.

"The timing of umbilical cord clamping at birth should be delayed just a few minutes longer, suggest researchers at the University of South Florida's Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair."
