While traditional drugs mostly help us manage the effects of disease, cell therapies promise genuine cures for a broad range of intractable ailments, from Alzheimer’s to heart damage to cancer. They could even reverse the effects of aging. For the first time in history, on an unprecedented scale, we possess the power to modify the biology that gives rise to disease, ultimately restoring individuals to a state of normalcy and reversing debilitating ailments. Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb traces the scientific achievements that propelled progress in cell therapies.

能力は遺伝するのか。そもそも「能力」とは何か。そして「遺伝」とは何だろうか。実はわからないことだらけの領域を第一人者が解説！

Научившись "читатa" ДНК не только современного Homo sapiens, но и наших далеких предков, мы получили возможность совершать путешествия во времени. В этой книге ведомый генетиком-антропологом Эвелин Эйер читатель пройдет теми же путями, какими передвигались наши исчезнувшие родственники — неандертальцы, денисовцы и загадочный степной народ, положивший начало всем индоевропейским языкам; проследует по следам бухарских евреев, войск Чингисхана и тысячи "королевских дочерей", отправленных Людовиком XIV заселять Новую Францию, взойдет на борт корабля, увозящего с родины африканских рабов.

Ingrassia lost his mother, two sisters, brother, and nephew to cancer—different cancers developing at different points throughout their lives. And while highly unusual, his family is not the only one to wonder whether their heartbreak is the result of unbelievable bad luck, or if there might be another explanation.

Impara a costruire il tuo albero genealogico, conosci la storia della tua famiglia e sfoglia tra i ricordi dei tuoi cari. Chi erano i tuoi avi? Hai forse qualche passato nobiliare e non lo sai? E come riuscire da soli a raccogliere informazioni? Forse è meglio che ti fai aiutare da un esperto? Questo e molto altro in un ebook semplice, di facile lettura e senza pretese.

In der Geschichte der Menschheit hat es schon immer den Wunsch nach Unsterblichkeit und dem ewigen Leben gegeben. Im Laufe der Jahrhunderte haben die Menschen viele Versuche unternommen, um dieses Ziel zu erreichen. In der modernen Zeit haben Fortschritte in der Wissenschaft und Technologie das Potenzial geschaffen, dass das ewige Leben tatsächlich möglich werden könnte. Dieses Hörbuch untersucht die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten, wie das ewige Leben erreicht werden könnte, einschließlich der genetischen Manipulation, der Epigenetik, der Kryonik und der menschlichen KIs.

Die vielfach ausgezeichnete Biochemikerin Renée Schroeder über den Menschheitstraum als Motor der Wissenschaft. Wissen Sie, was ein Xenobot ist? Es ist der erste lebende Roboter, hergestellt aus embryonalen Stammzellen eines Frosches. Diese Frosch-Roboter sind nur eines der vielen, bis vor kurzem ungeahnten Ergebnisse der biotechnologischen Forschung. Die Entwicklung ist rasant, etwa in der Gentechnologie, in der Bioinformatik, oder in der synthetischen Biologie, ein junges Forschungsgebiet, das programmierbare Organismen mit neuen Eigenschaften schaffen will.

Nie war der Traum vom ewigen Leben so aktuell wie heute. Jung, aktiv, gesund und attraktiv wollen wir sein, und das auch im hohen Alter. Nun haben Wissenschaftler das große Rätsel unserer Vergänglichkeit entschlüsselt. Und sie haben erste Techniken entwickelt, die den Alterungsprozess kontrollieren. Der Wissenschaftsjournalist Ulrich Bahnsen nimmt uns mit auf eine spannende Reise zu den weltweit führenden Altersforscher:innen und entdeckt epigenetische Therapien, mit deren Hilfe wir unseren Körper um Jahrzehnte verjüngen können.

人間だけがもっているスーパーパワーってなに？　私たちはそれをどう使えばいいんだろう？　世界的ベストセラー『サピエンス全史』の著者が、未来をになう子どもたちに贈る、驚きの歴史！

All of us would like to live longer, or to slow the debilitating effects of age. In How We Age, Coleen Murphy shows how recent research on longevity and aging may be bringing us closer to this goal. Murphy, a leading scholar of aging, explains that the study of model systems, particularly simple invertebrate animals, combined with breakthroughs in genomic methods, have allowed scientists to probe the molecular mechanisms of longevity and aging.

Eine faszinierende Vorstellung: Wie wäre es, wenn sich die biologische Uhr, die in jedem von uns tickt, anhalten ließe – oder sogar ein Stück zurückdrehen? Und das nicht bloß gefühlt, sondern messbar? Dieses Versprechen ist seit Kurzem Realität. Der junge Forschungszweig der Epigenetik hat den Deckel von der Altersuhr gehoben – und in aktuellen Studien nun sogar den Sprung in die praktische Anwendung geschafft. Genau darum geht es in diesem Hörbuch: Was kann ich ganz konkret tun, um meine Altersuhr zurückzudrehen? Um wie viele Monate oder gar Jahre lässt sich der Zeiger zurückstellen?

In GATTACA Has Fallen: how population genetics failed the populace, Dr. Ian Myles explains that the root of all of these issues is the belief that genetics meaningfully guide our fate. Using less controversial examples like eczema and allergic diseases, the book demonstrates how claiming there are genes for asthma is similar to claiming there are genes for intellect or favorite flavor of tea.

Biology is undergoing a quiet but profound transformation. Several aspects of the standard picture of how life works—the idea of the genome as a blueprint, of genes as instructions for building an organism, of proteins as precisely tailored molecular machines, of cells as entities with fixed identities, and more—have been exposed as incomplete, misleading, or wrong. In How Life Works, Philip Ball explores the new biology, revealing life to be a far richer, more ingenious affair than we had guessed.

Com base na arqueogenética, cientistas como Johannes Krause traçaram a rota das ondas migratórias que povoaram o mundo, lançando luz sobre aspectos do passado que até então permaneciam um mistério. Krause e o jornalista Thomas Trappe reescrevem um dos capítulos mais interessantes desse percurso: o povoamento da Europa. Além disso, detalham a cultura dos povos que viviam lá no período pré-histórico, formados por hábeis artesãos, por pessoas que enterravam os mortos com joias de ouro muito antes dos faraós do Egito e por caçadores de grandes animais que pereceram na Era do Gelo.

Prepare for a mind-expanding journey. Discover how intelligence evolved, starting from DNA and RNA genesis, all the way to the rise of machines. Imagine a world where evolutionary principles influence machine learning algorithms, crafting Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). This provocative exploration delves deep into evolution, unlocking parallels between natural selection and the birth of computing intelligence. The narrative charts an exhilarating course from the dawn of life to an AGI-dominated future.

For over a century we saw Neanderthals as inferior to Homo Sapiens. After new discoveries, the pendulum swung the other way and they are generally seen as our relatives: not quite human, but similar enough, and still not equal. Now, thanks to an ongoing revolution in palaeoanthropology in which he has played a key part, Ludovic Slimak shows us that they are something altogether different - and they should be understood on their own terms rather than by comparing them to ourselves. As he reveals in this stunning book, the Neanderthals had their own history, their own rituals, their own customs.

In this exploration of the concept of the gene, Jonathan Slack looks at the discovery, nature, and role of genes in both evolution and development. Explaining the nature of genetic variation in the human population, how hereditary factors were identified as molecules of DNA, and how certain specific mutations can lead to disease, Slack highlights how DNA variants are used to trace human ancestry and migration, and can also be used by forensic scientists to identify individuals in crime.

"El acertijo de la vida" es una fascinante narración de los hallazgos más importantes de la Biología durante el siglo XX y su revolución para dar paso a la genética. Para ello da cuenta de los actores más importantes en este proceso y el contexto en el que se dieron sus aportaciones: la importancia que tuvo Rosalind Franklin en el desarrollo del esquema de la doble hélice del ADN, las primeras ideas en la biología relacionadas a la búsqueda del gen y que dieron paso a la genética.
