medicalxpress.com/news/2014-11-scientists-mechanism-spontaneous-hiv.html Sorry, if it's in the wrong forum, is this method feasible?. I know in the genetic code, there are many stretches that resemble virus code(apparently silenced) , it's quite interesting they are using that as a starting...

Think of it another way , analogy like a person who hits the gym to build muscle size, does it frequently and will increase his muscle size. But once he stops it it will return to previous size , before he started his training. It may not be a good analogy , but extend this over long...

two articles in phys.org regarding neanderthals - http://phys.org/news/2014-05-dna-interaction-neanderthals-humans.html http://phys.org/news/2014-04-neandertal-inferiority-early-modern-humans.html

http://medicalxpress.com/news/2014-04-breakthrough-therapy-paraplegic-men-voluntarily.html This is pretty good and seems as if the field is progressing quite fast.

populations of organisms who do not adapt to their environment, they won't survive. So where's the question natural selection if they die of. You may call it biased, is it biased for organisms to live and adapt to the environment?. Accordingly mutations that give a slight advantage for...

A good post.I think it should be stressed that a lot more acetaminophen is taken by patients unknowingly to them, as a part of combination with other drugs which is why FDA is issuing a warning. This increases the likelihood of daily dosage exceeding > 4 grams per day,since acetaminophen is...

Or what happens recently a year back, when you start hearing to misinformation that "vaccines are no longer safe " http://medicalxpress.com/news/2013-05-measles-surges-uk-years-vaccine.html

So correct me, if i am wrong. It seems , major problem with current diet is with amount of sugar added to food. More important , the type of sugar (bad sugar) which is intentionally added to food i.e. fructose. So the traditional food grains (wheat, rice etc) are better than fructose. .

Bit of hyperbole, don't you think. People have been eating sugar from ages. The fructose and sucrose added to processed food is a recent invention(50 or 100 yrs). Why even alcohol is distilled from sugars.

I am not seeing how you can make such a conclusion as one is more to related to cousins than their sibling. All of us receive a set of chromosomes from each parent. Genetic related ness is a vast topic and very complex one. Only in cases of gene disorders (single gene)(eg. hemophilia) will...

I am getting the impression that you are making evolution to be something which it is not. There is nothing called "progressive" in biology. Progressive is a political or a social term. i think You are confusing evolution with modern day technological advancement(or drawing a similar analogy)...

Actually the difference in the anatomical structures are trivial as far, i know. Maybe an expert talk about it. Bipedalism existed even before homo sapiens arrived, You should know, we belong to the hominid family of which many extinct groups found in the fossil records had one or more of our...

Define faster evolution? first of all what do you think evolution in biology mean? Development of technology ? Evolution has no goal, it simply is the idea of populations surviving over long period of time with adaptation and speciation. One recent definition involves change in allele...

But, why does infrared contribute more compared to visible ? Is there a difference?. I was thinking whether a particular part of em spectrum caused majority of heating.
