Blaylock highlights how independent study after study has shown that fluoride increases cancer rates, increases bone disorders, which as Blaylock points out is a good way of increasing mortality rates amongst the elderly, and also leads to profound neurological disorders. Blaylock highlights the research of Phyllis Mullenix, Ph.D, who during her tenure at Harvard University conducted one of the largest studies into fluoride’s effects on the brain in animals. Mullenix found that offspring of…

Indeed, adult stem cell therapy has proceeded largely undisputed in medical procedure. However, embryonic stem cell research, the extraction of stem cells from early stage embryos, has been highly controversial and polarizing. Mainly, ethical concerns have arisen in response to the very concept and…

Analysis of Adenosine receptor blockage’s effects on the electrophysiology of HCTP/OR producing neurons of the Hypothalamus – receptor blockage mediated by Caffeine Introduction In this experiment, the quantification of firing rate changes on a specific neural sub-group will be analyzed via whole cell patch-clamping and the application of the common psychoactive drug-caffeine. The significance of quantifying the electrical signaling of the chosen neuron is to proportionally quantify the…

Since my childhood, my father 's inspirational recounts as a cardiologist have captured my heart and my interest. While some have tried to sway me from becoming a doctor by noting the grim specter of health care reform looming overhead, I have found myself eager to participate in the public health care debate for the very same reasons I am drawn to enter the medical profession itself.

wanted to get a PhD in political science or even that I was certain of my decision once I began my graduate studies. In reality, the path that led me to pursue a PhD has been a long and somewhat unexpected one. I began my undergraduate career as a biochemistry major, but by the end of my first year, I discovered that I was more interested in studying human behavior and interactions and switched my major to psychology with a minor in political science. After receiving my undergraduate degree, I…

The futuristic, seemingly inconceivable concept of a medication that could replicate exercise is examined by Nicola Twilley in “A Pill To Make Exercise Obsolete”, published in The New Yorker. Investigating several such exercise-supplements that exist today, Twilley explores the idea of exercise and its health implications on a broad scale; Assessing how exercise was viewed throughout human history, how it exists in the natural world, and how it seemingly benefits innumerable systems in the human…
