Many wound up over 5000% price hike on a HIV medicine and all it seems it was is a front of a ponzi scheme by the very same Shrekli: http://www.bbc.com/news/business-35136834 I think pretty much everybody thought he was a creep for raising the price of a drug 5,000%, but now he looks like not only a creep, but a crook also. What a sad excuse for a businessman. Cheers

Mortality among Hydras
Most of the hydra's body is made of stem cells with very few fully differentiated cells, said Daniel MartÃnez, a biologist at Pomona College. The team observed 2,256 hydra in the labs more than 8 years. 'I wanted to prove hydras could not avoid aging. But my own data has proven me wrong twice. I believe an individual hydra can live forever under the right circumstances.' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/articl...ra-able-live-forever.html |
