While we hash out the ethical motive of stem cell activity Hera, China's lost in the lead and started shopping it as a looker quantity. A Peking surgical center is offer "age-reversing" stem cell therapy for your face.
RNL Puhua Moldable and Esthetical Surgical Center is a spouse of the Beijing Tian Topaz Puhua Hospital, which helps last-hope Parkinson's and spinal anesthesia bind accident patients.

If large equals better, than Varian Surgical System's Atom smasher, premeditated to dispense nucleon medical care, is the best goddam cancer-killing machine ever shapely. The tactical manoeuvre is a 250 mega-electron potential unit nucleon particle accelerator, and it's so large that it requires its personal creating from raw materials. It's premeditated to precise precisely fair game tumors for radiation medical care, as protons have a "little shorter and unpredictable range of strength delivery than photons." I'm not sure I fully see it, but it sure does look effective, doesn't it? [Varian via Medgadget]
