Researchers have also generated malaria-resistant mosquitoes by modifying specific genes like FREP1 in Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. CRISPR-Cas9 has also been utilized to investigate gene function throughout the malaria parasite's life cycle, shedding light on key developmental stages. Furthermore, t...

It follows the policies to combat infant mortality that were implemented during the 19th century and continued during the 20th century with the creation of Mother and Child Care Centres (MCCC) in 1945. Promoting breast-feeding is one of the specific actions of the second French NPHN (2006-...
A Drug to Combat the Inflammation of Obesity Now that scientists know which oxidized lipids are causing problems, and how, they can seek to block them to prevent inflammation. They may be able to develop a drug, for example, that would reduce the number of harmful, full-length oxidized lipi...
