You may think switching on and off different biological processes is hard, and you’d be 100% right! However, it’s not so much the fact that we don’t know what UP or DOWN regulates many of these cellular actions, but instead, the difficult part is getting visibility, real-time, to validate if these interventions are working. No […]

Despite almost never thinking about it, there is ALOT going on inside you every single second of every single day. And I mean ALOT…. Stuff that allows you and me to not only read and write this, but also do everything else we do. For example, at this very moment there are trillions of mitochondria […]

Well, how exactly does it do this? And […]

Insults are a part of Life… Both at the Social & Cellular level…. Ya’ See, our cells are constantly undergoing reactions, this is essentially how we survive. These reactions are MANDATORY for Biological Business. That being said, this cellular activity doesn’t come without some potentially problematic overhead. Like the formation of unstable reactive molecules, which […]

Let me throw a monkey-wrench at your probable perception and common dogma around STRESS…with a poem… Stress can be Good, Stress can be Bad Stress Can be Happy, Stress Can be SAD Stress can mean LIFE, Stress can mean DEATH it’s Context-Dependent… Just Like the Rest… I just either made my high school poetry teacher […]
