DARPA to weaponize insects to spread viruses across the population… sinister plans exposed by team of scientists
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is working on an agricultural bio-weapon, and a team of scientists are speaking out about it. For many years, agricultural firms have experimented with plant life, genetically modifying crops to confer desired, profitable traits. This experimentation has largely been conducted in labs, whereas genetic modification is directly applied […]

Vitamin D is so important researchers worry about ethics of limiting supplementation to perform research trials
In case you needed any more proof of how essential vitamin D is to good health, researchers have warned that placebo-controlled trials that involve limiting some people’s intake of the all-star nutrient could be considered unethical. This presents a serious quandary for researchers. Demonstrating the efficacy of vitamin D in studies is essential for boosting […]

New medical technology allows scientists to genetically alter your organs with a single touch… what could go wrong?
A new breakthrough technology has been developed that can help to heal wounds, nerves, blood vessels and even damaged organs. Known as Tissue Nanotransfection (TNT), it turns skin cells into other cell types that can repair damaged tissues with the help of nanotechnology. A small microchip about the size of a penny is used to […]

HORROR FARMS: Genetically altered pigs to be grown and harvested for human organ transplants
Harvard geneticist Dr. George Church has announced that the first organ transplants from pigs to humans could take place in just two years, after scientists found a way to combine gene editing and cloning to overcome some of the longstanding obstacles to pig organ transplants in an act that takes going against nature to new […]
