By: Henry Ford | 2011-04-06 | Reference & Education Genetic engineering is defined as the technology whereby the genes of an organism are manipulated directly. The structure and the characteristics of a cell are altered directly through the use of transformation and molecular cloning techniques. The term genetic engineering originated from Dragon's Island, a science fiction novel written by Jack Williamson and published in 1951. Scientists have adv read more

By: Henry Ford | 2011-05-11 | Reference & Education Genetic engineering is a new technology that promises to revolutionize the world in different aspects, especially in food production and other areas. However, the new technology comes with many ethical and moral challenges especially on areas of application where they touch on human life. Proponents of genetic engineering argues that it has many benefits to the world including solvingt bee reso read more
By: kitty | 2011-05-24 | Interior design First, the gene to be inserted into the genetically modified organism must be chosen and isolated. Presently, most genes transferred into plants provide protection against insects or tolerance to herbicides. In animals the majority of genes used are growth hormone genes. Once chosen the genes must be.... read more
By: Amirah Bellamy | 2010-12-07 | Nutrition Ironically, answering this question does not require that one engage in any in-depth biotech scientific research study or become an expert in molecular biology. Instead, one need only do a quick cost-benefit analysis to see that what's going on here is that humans are being fed to the life-sucking machines that we know as corporations like livestock feed is being fed to cattle.... read more

Is there a swine flu vaccine? Not really. And why not? Well, according to the WebMD, the reason we don't have a swine flu vaccine is that, supposedly, no one saw the new virus coming. read more

Are we pre-coded from birth to inherit these money making traits for our parents or is it all to do with how we are brought up and educated? read more
By: Anthony Chapman | 2010-03-28 | Nutrition When a food is genetically modified it is for the benefit of resistance against insects, herbicides or to make it taste better. No research or studies have ever been done with humans to show what genetically modified foods can do to our health so you could say humans are the guinea pigs in an ongoing experiment. read more

By: Bill Tallmon | 2010-04-02 | News and society When I researched for my PhD (Natural Health and the Biotech Revolution) in 2001 I ran across an interesting book by Martin Teitel and Kimberly Wilson, "Genetically Engineered Food: Changing the Nature of Nature." Martin Teitel is now the executive director for the Council for Responsible Genetics, a non-profit organization of concerned scientists, doctors, and activists formed to foster public debate about the social, ethical, health, economic and environmental implications of genetic technology. read more
