GENOMICS: The Science born out of the Human Genome Project
Today, almost three years after the first draft of the Human Genome Projecte was presented to the world we have a new science: Genomics, that studies how the genome function as whole. The comparison of the functioning of the rat, mice and human genomes, is starting to shed light on how it works in health and disease.

GENETICALLY DESIGNED PETS TO FIT THE OWNER´S TASTE
Last June, Transgenic Pets of Syracuse, New York, unveiled its plans to produce cats that do not cause allergic reactions in their owners. That is, it seems that the industry of genetically modified pets to fit their owner’s tastes is about to start.

MOLECULAR AND CELULLAR MEDICINE ADVANCES = ETERNAL YOUTH? Part I
Even though the extraordinary advances in medicine during the last century extended the average human life span from about 30 years at the dawning of the twentieth century to 76 at the beginning of the new millenium, man continues to consider eternal youth as a much longed-for utopia. Lifespan is still limited by the impossibility of finding new organs to replace those damaged by age, accidents or disease and by the lack of cure for cancer and infectious and cardiovascular diseases. However, scientific advances produced during the 1990´s began to plant the idea that, even if eternal youth is not yet within our grasp, extending the lifespan up to 150 years will be a possibility within the next quarter-century.
