In 2005, researcher Woo-suk Hwang reported that he had made immortal stem cells from human patients. His research was hailed as a breakthrough for people affected by degenerative diseases, because stem cells may be used to repair a person's own damaged tissues. Hwang published his results in a peer-reviewed journal. In 2006, the journal retracted his paper after other scientists discovered that Hwang's group had faked their data. Does the incident show that results of scientific studies cannot be trusted? Or does it confirm the usefulness of a scientific approach, because other scientists discovered and exposed the fraud?

Need help  Describe the use of stem cells in medicine and cosmetology, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these methods *.

For instance "the oncology ward of Princess Marina Hospital (pmh), Botswana’s central referral hospital, a light breeze is blowing the curtains in the female side of the ward"

Since we do not know the exact cause of cancer and different causes of cancer, write 5 statements (numbered) for 5 recommendations that may help cancer survivors live longer with the least chance of remission. You may use the NOVA knowledge you gained in this module. You may expand your search.

Every year, about a million Americans are diagnosed with cancer. This means that about 75 million Americans now living will eventually have cancer, And one in five will die of the disease. There are many kinds of cancers and many causes, such as smoking, overexposure to ultraviolet rays, a high fat and low fiber diet, and some workplace chemicals. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent each year on searching for treatment, yet less money is spent on prevention. Should we devote more resources to treating cancer or to preventing it? Explain.

When we have a bacterial infection, we often take antibiotics. Why do antibiotics only kill bacterial cells and not our own human cells? They do kill human cells but there are far more human cells than bacterial cells and they will quickly repopulate after the infection. Antibiotics are proteins that can only bind to bacterial cell wall receptors. Antibiotics target structures of bacterial cells that human don't have, such as a nucleus. Antibiotics target structures of bacterial cells that human don't have, such as peptidoglycan. 0000
