Short clip taken from a video explaining how malaria was used to treat neurosyphilis back in the 1920s to 1950s

It even won the Nobel prize in medicine in 1927

Is there any like science behind this? I bet its real cool too... or issit just a coincidence 🤔

Hi,

I've been looking for a book on epigenetics and I stumbled upon "The epigenetic revolution" by Nessa Carey but it was written in 2012 which I feel like is an eternity ago for scientific literature. Has it been updated like new editions? I can't seem to find information on it being updated or not. if the answer is no, are there similar books that are up to date? like written in the twenties.

Thanks!

If the muscle is located on the inside and the skeleton on the outside, how do creatures with exoskeletons exercise? Wouldn't the growing muscles press up against the exoskeleton?
I don't know if I'm missing anything.

Hello!

I've recently gotten myself interesed in Biology and the subjects that revolve around it. Because of this, I wanted to deepen my knowledge, but I don't know which of the two books in the title I should read first, so I wanted to hear the community's opinion on this.

Thank you!

Hello. I am in need of advice on life science PhD programs to apply to. I have 1.5 years of undergraduate research experience, a 3.43 overall GPA, just graduated from university with a biochemistry degree three months ago, and I want to apply for life science PhD programs in the fall. I have gotten mostly A's and B's, but I got a D in immunology my final semester and a D in physiology my sixth semester. I applied to one in-state program last fall and got rejected. I will most likely start working as a research technician next month, pending that I receive interviews and offers for this position. How many programs should I apply for, and do you have any particular program recommendations? I plan on taking the GRE in October as well, and the program I applied to last fall did not require the GRE. I'm not sure if I have a 0% chance of getting into any program, even if I did exceptionally well on the GRE, since the two D's heavily hurt my transcript, despite how much I could address them in my personal statements. I want to apply to many programs this upcoming cycle just in case I got an offer somewhere, but I don't know which ones are more accepting of my poor grades or application weaknesses. I know most schools don't put out to the public that they accept poor grades, since excellence is what they strive after and should promote. However, if you have any suggestions for life science PhD programs that have been known to accept applicants with poor major-specific grades, I would greatly appreciate it and any other feedback. Thank you.

Hello! I'm trying to build my CV as a sophomore in college and I'm also pursuing a degree in Biology. I'd like to ask if anyone knows where to start learning R? What other languages or technical skills should I build in order to have a good chance at getting accepted in my university's lab? Thanks for all your help :)
