When molecular biologist Becky McClain raised urgent alarms about biosafety lapses at her biotech lab at Pfizer, she expected concern—not retaliation. Instead, her warnings about dangerous, genetically engineered viruses that were handled without following standard safety protocols were met with hostility, intimidation, and ultimately, devastating illness after a workplace exposure changed her life forever.

A pioneering neuroscientist shows how the long-sought merger of brains with machines is about to become a paradigm-shifting reality. Imagine living in a world where people use their computers, drive their cars, and communicate with one another simply by thinking. In this stunning and inspiring...

Ein Blick durch das Schlüsselloch der Forschungslabore und Hightech-Firmen: Woran sie arbeiten, was sie planen, was jetzt schon möglich ist. Spitzenforscher sind sich einig: Auch mit Mitte 90 noch fit zu sein, kann Standard werden. Und 120 Jahre Leben wird für viele Menschen erreichbar – schon für die jetzt geborenen Generationen. Doch was müssen wir tun, um nicht nur länger zu leben, sondern auch länger gesund zu bleiben? Thomas Schulz, langjähriger SPIEGEL-Korrespondent im Silicon Valley, hat mit Konzernchefs und Spitzenforscherinnen, AI-Koryphäen und Medizinerinnen gesprochen.

Microfluidics is the field of science that studies fluids constrained to spaces that are smaller than one millimeter wide, and by extension, the engineering field which builds devices that exploit the unique properties of fluids at these scales. Author Albert Folch explores this micro science which has inspired engineers to build devices such as engines, spray cans, ballpoint pens, inkjet and 3D printers, pregnancy and Covid tests, glucometers, asthma nebulizers, kidney dialysis machines, and DNA analyzers.

ウイルス学者は、ウイルスを作り出すことができます。感染細胞から、ウイルスのタンパク質の設計図が書いてあるDNAをとってきて、それをプラスミドという大腸菌内の環状DNAに入れて増殖させるのです。

Jim Geraghty has been a passionate participant in the orphan drug revolution since its inception―a leader in the field as a strategy consultant, biotechnology executive, and venture entrepreneur. His book is in part a history, with eyewitness accounts of advances as they occurred and portraits of the pioneering scientists and physicians, tireless activists, and visionary business leaders who made the revolution happen. And it tells deeply personal stories of patients and parents willing to risk untried new therapies.

Scientific discoveries in the field of genomics just began about 50 years ago. These breakthroughs answered many questions about how we are built and live. The discoveries also proved the power and importance of the tiny chromosome.

The field of biotechnology has evolved over the past four decades, developing medicines which are curing diseases. But this journey of success has been tough and arduous, built upon the shoulders of major failures. Good Genes Gone Bad highlights seven such colossal failures in drug...

Animals make for terrible technology. The technological use of animals - making food, drugs, clothing, and cosmetics out of animal material - will cease. After Meat explains the fundamental limits of animal technology in terms of physics and biology. Replacement technology such as microbial fermentation will surpass those limits. Eventually, we’ll have food that is better in every way - in terms of taste, cost, nutrition, resource consumption, and ethics - because we won't use animals to produce it.

Hay una revolución en marcha, una tecnología prodigiosa que nos va a permitir curar enfermedades, derrotar virus y tener hijos más sanos. A su cabeza está la reciente premio Nobel Jennifer Doudna y sus colegas, protagonistas del nuevo libro de Walter Isaacson.
