#The First Lab-Grown Hamburger Is Servedsince 2008 Dr. Mark Post has been working on growing edible meat in a laboratory.
Muscle stem cells were taken from a cow's shoulder in a gentle biopsy and grown in calf serum with micro-exercise
Dr. Post a cardiovascular biologist from Maastricht University brought his raw burger out in a petri dish under a cloche.
I think it's a very good start said Dr. Post. This was mostly to prove that we can make it.
Dr. Post currently estimates that it will take 10 to 20 years before cultured meat can be mass-produced.
For the last few years the project has been funded by an anonymous benefactor who Dr. Post revealed today is Sergey Brin.
Dr. Post answered some other questions from the audience. Can you make a steak? In theory. We are currently focusing on minced meat products using shorter fibers
The leftovers were taken home for Dr. Post's children. well with any new product lets see what happens to the first few people who eat this

#Tiny Poisonous Trees Could Fight Climate Change In The Desertfive German scientists have proposed a new strategy for mitigating the effects of climate change:
Short poisonous and hardy the Jatropha curcas tree can survive severe heat poor and alkaline soil and very low rainfall.
Widspread use of toxic plants would restore the soil retain moisture that would otherwise run off instantly return that moisture to the atmospehre
Dr. Liet Kyens would be very proud of this research...To boldly go where no planetologist has gone before...
so a lot of the problems that poor people have were not a big deal anymore like dirty water poor sanitation oppression and persecution rampant malnutrition hunger and poverty.
Diseases and natural disasters still affected them from time to time but they didn't hurt thousands or millions of people like they did in poor countries.
and solving problems by the billions is complicated too to incorporate into the simple math of Dr. Chicken Little so he just ignores it.

Mccarthy is a strident proponent of not vaccinating kids as she believes vaccinations made her son autistic.
News of her hire comes less than a week after the end of an outbreak of measles in Wales precipitated by the low measles vaccination rates there that sickened more than 1200
What if Mccarthy's new platform really does bring on a resurgence of unscientific anti-vaccination beliefs?
We've made a guide for you to help you refute common anti-vaccine questions and claims.
Historically recommended vaccines have been shown to harm children. Why would today's recommendations be any different?
Yes some older vaccines had severer side effects than current ones do. I'll look at two examples polio
and pertussis which is commonly known as whooping cough. No one has gotten polio from the newer polio vaccine.
Before 2000 pediatricians in the U s. routinely gave kids a polio vaccine that contained live attenuated polio virus. Now American kids get a vaccine with an inactivated
or killed virus. Very rarely the live virus in the older vaccine could actually revert to its natural state and cause paralysis a tragic consequence.
Some people in the world still deal with this risk. Live attenuated polio vaccines are used in some regions where polio is endemic
because those who get the live attenuated vaccine are able to pass on their immunity to others around them which helps spread immunity more quickly.
People are also able to take the live attenuated vaccine by mouth instead of in a shot
so it's quicker and easier to get to people in regions where there are few doctors and nurses.
Different countries must judge the risks and benefits of the oral polio vaccine differently; even the U s. had judged once the live attenuated vaccine worth the risk
when there was nothing better available. No one has gotten polio from the newer polio vaccine. Before the 1990s kids in the U s. got a pertussis vaccine with severe potential side effects ranging from fever to fainting fits.
Some parents sued vaccine manufacturers claiming that the shot caused brain damage. Scientists have determined since that the parents'claim is unproven.
U s. doctors now use a new pertussis vaccine with milder side effects. Of course it's up to everyone to decide individually
whether the risks of a medicine outweigh its benefits. Consider the numbers around vaccines though.
Often something like 1 in 1000 kids experience moderate side effects such as prolonged crying. For more severe side effects such as seizures or that rotavirus-caused bowel blockage the odds go down to one in tens of thousands.
Among children who contract measles one in 1000 get encephalitis an acute brain infection and one or two in 1000 die.
In 2011 among the 18000 Americans who got whooping cough that year more than 1 in 2000 died all of them babies.
CLAIM: It is dangerous for little babies to get so many vaccines at one time. The immune system can get overwhelmed.
Babies really do get a lot of vaccines at once. Their first round alone includes six shots. And the list of recommended childhood vaccines has grown in recent decades as researchers have developed more and more immunizations.
States with lenient policies about immunization exemptions had 90 percent more whooping cough cases than stricter states.
However numerous studies have found no link between getting the recommended schedule of vaccines and getting other diseases later in childhood.
There's no credible scientific evidence that vaccines are able to overload babies'immune systems. Though immature babies'systems are prepared to handle vaccines.
They already handle numerous viruses and bacteria all around them in everyday life. The U s. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend vaccines at very young ages
because that's when kids are the most vulnerable as some of the natural immunization they got from breastfeeding fades.
CLAIM: Vaccines have dangerous ingredients in them. One of Mccarthy's--and other vaccine opponents'--most popular claims is that thimerosal a mercury-based preservative once common in vaccines causes autism.
There's so much evidence showing thimerosal doesn't cause autism. Nevertheless thimerosal no longer appears in any vaccines except influenza
because an infant receiving the recommended schedule of old vaccines would get a higher-than-recommended dose of mercury
which is toxic in high levels. The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia has more information on the ingredients in vaccines.
They are not dangerous. CLAIM: It's not like a parent's decision not to vaccinate his child harms other kids.
Vaccinated kids generally won't get sick from the preventable diseases that they've been inoculated against.
However if a non-vaccinated kid gets sick with a preventable disease there are still several people he may infect beyond non-vaccinated classmates.
He may infect babies that haven't yet been scheduled to receive their vaccines. He may also infect the small percentage of kids for
whom their immunizations don't work as immunizations aren't 100 percent effective. The measles vaccine for example is more than 95 percent effective very good but not perfect.
Where kids aren't vaccinated more people get sick. In 2011 the states with lenient policies about immunization exemptions had 90 percent more whooping cough cases than stricter states according to the Institute of Medicine.
CLAIM: There's nothing wrong with spacing out my child's vaccines if I want to. Delaying a vaccine just means there's that much longer a window for an unimmunized child to get sick.
Limiting the number of doctor's visits children need to get all their shots also helps more families stick to the recommended schedule
and reduces the costs of vaccination. Beyond that however there's little evidence about which alternative schedules of vaccinations is best
and whether alternative schedules are better or worse than the standard schedule. The standard schedule has been studied
because the vast majority of U s. kids get it but alternative schedules are pretty new and several different alternatives exist so they are difficult to study.
The Institute of Medicine is trying to figure out whether a study of alternative schedules is feasible.
Some delayed schedules celebrities (and celebrity doctors) have endorsed leave out some vaccinations altogether which leave kids vulnerable to those diseases.
CLAIM: Every medicine has side effects and I want to protect my kids. It's always important to know about side effects before deciding to give your kid a vaccine or another medicine.
Most of the side effects of vaccines are compared mild to the illnesses they prevent. Different vaccines may cause temporary fussiness swelling prolonged crying and other effects.
Some babies get mild vomiting and diarrhea after the DTAP and rotavirus vaccines. We fully acknowledge that what doctors call mild vomiting
and diarrhea is not fun to have to take care of.)Very rarely kids may be severely allergic to a vaccine.
Allergic reactions generally occur within hours of getting a shot. The reaction may be bad enough that a kid can't get the rest of the shots in that series
which means he or she will have to rely on other kids being vaccinated to protect him from that disease. 1 in 20000 to 1 in 100000 babies who get the rotavirus vaccine get a serious bowel blockage for
which they have to visit the hospital. Some will need surgery. This isn't an exhaustive list of the potential side effects of different vaccines though
I've tried to cover the most severe ones. You can find out more from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Popular Science calling me a crazy.
We stopped inoculations for our children after our oldest 2 both suffered from vaccine injuries at their 18mo and 1 year vaccination appointment.
My oldest daughter who didn't have asthma prior to her 18mo vaccines suddenly developed asthma.
Our youngest daughter (at the time) spent 9 days in the hospital due to dehydration brought on by 16 days of severe diarrhea immediately following her 1 year vaccines.
At that point we started doing research and determined that we're done with vaccines for right now.
And to be clear I'm not worried about autism from the vaccines.@@chrisa I don't believe this article is directed at you.
Obviously if there is an allergy or some other related issue then you can't be vaccinated. My girlfriend stopped breathing when she got the pertussis vaccine as child
so she is unvaccinated still for that. If we have children they may skip that one too for safety sake.
Other than that it is the only issue I have heard ever of. That is what the the article refers to that 99.9%will be protected fine
and. I'm in the 99.9%she is in the 0. 1%.Disclaimer: I once contracted mumps while traveling abroad.
Sincei was vaccinated by the time I noticed I had mumps they were beginning to go away. I am totally for vaccines where allergies allow I don't feel that calling these activist parents crazies will at all help the situation.
What they are calling for are third party unfunded and disconnected from the industry real studies on the long term effects of the additives to these vaccines
and dismissing them because someone feels they are nonsensicle is just wrong. All it would take is some hard facts
and a large number of tests on these chemicals to prove they are not good or to prove they are fine.
Just look at GMO's not all GMO's are the same some have not been tested thoroughly
and have been shown by examples to be harmful to the public so those particular GMO's have been denied access in certain economies because of their harmful affects on people
and people have risen up about it. The same can be said about certain additives in food.
You wouldn't give your children known carcinogens to eat would you? Well then why would you allow them to receive shots containing mercury?
Lets start with a null hypothesis: in this case lets assume vaccines are placebos neither causing harm nor effective.
Then look at the evidence to see if the null holds true. https://en. wikipedia. org/wiki/National childhood vaccine injury actnot all vaccines are safe for everyone all of the time.
We have a right to read and know about adverse reactions. http://www. vaccinesafety. edu/package inserts. htmthe government asserts that the risks
--although potentially drastic--are minimal in probability. http://www. cdc. gov/vaccinesafety/Concerns/Index. htmlthe government also asserts that certain supposed correlations such as autism
and asthma are debunked. However studies that withhold treatment are considered unethical. Fortunately a control group does exist.
There are groups that are isolated and for the most part exempt themselves from vaccinations such as the Amish There are also surveys and independent self-reporting.
I won't lead the reader here; do your own research. Often the same studies are cited by both sides:
http://www. ncbi. nlm. nih. gov/pmc/articles/PMC1448377/Vaccine proponents will cite the explanation by the researchers
while the critics will cite just the data. Be sure to read the articles carefully.
Always look to see if there is a conflict of interest. Be sure to take into account exposure to dangerous components the probability of contracting a specific disease the effectiveness of a vaccine
and if the side effects outweigh the risks. Don't be bullied into taking risks you deem unnecessary
and don't assume that all vaccinations have to be rejected as a matter of principle. And last not all vaccines are created equal.
Try a search for politicians who were administered a separate vaccine than the one they suggested for the public.@
@Skeptic until pro-thank you. The article written by popsci is misleading and sad to say the least
but I guess that's what is going to separate people into two main categories. Those who think for themselves
and do their own research to make informed decisions and those who are going to read a popsci article
and think they've learned all there is to ever know about vaccines. Don't be a noob;
do your research and become an informed consumer. I do not agree with this article at all!
They provided no evidence to support their arguments and assume we will take their word for it.
That is not science but rather faith. Having a child who consiquencely developed type 1 diabetes shortly after shots two boys with sever ADHD I am more aware and knowledgable with my 3 other children.
Shots have dangerous additives in them (mercury aluminum formaldehyde and MSG. A Harvard study linked aluminum and fluoride to ADHD Alzheimer's and dementia.
These are brain issues kind of like Autism. I have seen to many videos of parents children before
and then shortly after to not think there is a connection. While an immunization maybe good it is the'other stuff'that isn't. There is no money to be made by a cure!
Only in the treatment-why do you think disease is on the rise and higher then any other country?
And if you can't realize this then you are a fool! Big pharma and big Corp run our world now
-and we are their play things...Popsci attests to the validity of the âÂ#Âoesafeã¢Â# vaccines program and the publication's own lack of ethic by its language.
Liars and crooks have a patent history of using invective and viciousness to âÂ#Âoeget their point acrossã¢Â# because they know they are peddling deceit.
Strong arming is a commonplace for crooks. Their âÂ#Âoeaddressingã¢Â# of issues relating to the âÂ#Âoesafetyã¢Â# of vaccines equally demonstrates the inherent corruption in âÂ#Âoescienceã¢Â#Â. Careful
verbal misrepresentation is a commonplace in many frauds and in selling the âÂ#Âoesafetyã¢Â# of vaccines.
Consider for example âÂ#Âoesome older vaccines had severer side effect than the current onesã¢Â#Â. Some.
How many? How many newer ones have worse effects? Note the insistence of only discussing polio and pertussis.
No article defending vaccines covers any others than these! And consider how many even know about polio vaccine containing the aã¢Â# attenuatedã¢Â# virus up until 2000
and pertussis vaccines have many severe side effects until the 1980's? Few if any. Because âÂ#Âoescienceã¢Â# tends to overplay even fabricate successes and downplay failures!
They won't mention the truth unless they have to. And now it's just too obvious they aren't coming clean.
But what guarantee is there that their âÂ#Âoeassurancesã¢Â# of vaccines now are any better than the now admitted risky alternatives back then that were peddled as âÂ#Âoemiracle drugs with no drawbacksã¢Â#Â?
As is so often the case taking issue with accusations of thimerosal causing autism. But no mention of other ingredients.
Yes there is a link to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia web page addressing individual ingredients âÂ#Âoesafetyã¢Â#Â. Yet not once do they ever discuss what combinations of these ingredients cause
or how they might react with compounds to be found elsewhere in the world. And note that the web page on ingredients describes them as âÂ#Âoenecessaryã¢Â#Â. Edward Jenner was extraordinarily successful
but he didn't include thimerosal aluminum or fetal tissue in his vaccines! The drug companies are just looking for ways to charge more.
if there was a real threat to drug company profits from lack of vaccination they will create their own epidemic
The facts are weighed heavily on the side of vaccination. Prior to widespread vaccination the US population fell prey to numerous diseases that debilitated disfigured and outright killed many people who could have been saved with vaccines.
This link has data (change the after www): ) wwwpost-polio. org/ir-usa. htmlif you listen to the pundits
and the conspiracy theorists they will have you believe in a past where people were healthier smarter
and lived longer lives due to no vaccinations plentiful preservative-free fresh foods and healthier lifestyles. Go hunt up mortality rates for the US from 100 years ago.
which obesity is considered an epidemic our country may go bankrupt because of all the old retired people on the government dole
and the greatest maladies we face are used ones people to never live long enough to get such as cancer and Alzheimer's.
Vaccines are good for you and your children and are worth the risk. http://blogs-images. forbes. com/matthewherper/files/2013/03/c6fb5feb7f1ee71b7e725277d30999161. jpgthis Chart shows exactly why you should vaccinate.
If you want more proof please go visit a country that has had or recently endemic Polio.
Also the article did not call you crazy but if you are overly sensitive to people calling you that
@Barksley-I agree that vaccines are a lifesaver and if we didn't have them infant mortality rates would be much higher than they are.
I would never say that we need to do away with vaccines and I believe that the majority of people even the ones who won't get them for their kids will agree that we're better off as a whole with them.
But when my very young girls each had an issue related to their vaccines you start to wonder
@johnt-I never knew anyone who had a bad reaction to a vaccine until my 2 oldest children had vaccine injuries.
The one with the severe diarrhea has no lasting effects (other than a healthy fear of hospitals
and doctors offices due to her stay) but my oldest one is on daily medications to control her asthma and allergies.
and funded by vaccine companies will not change anybody's opinionthis piece of propaganda is laughable.
IMO the pharmaceutical companies are using a classic misdirection. The people I have heard and the data I have seen is not against vaccines
but against the use of mercury as a preservative (thimerosal to extend the shelf life of vaccines and save money.
The systems of autism and the systems of mad hatters disease are the exact same.
Go look it up. Just like with peanut allergies some children react to the increased mercury in their bloodstream
and develop mad hatters or autism. This is about money. Not health. The pharmaceutical companies need a safer preservative than thirmerosal
but that would cost money to develop. This reminds me of the argument about acne and chocolate.
Chocolate companies have proven there is no link to acne and chocolate. But it isn't the chocolate that causes the acne. it's the paraffin they put in the chocolate to make it shine
and look pretty that causes the acne. wow symptoms got auto-corrected to systems. nice PS.
I find most they arguments to be utter BS the majority of Pro vaccine websites are run by the drug companies.
Finding impartial data is very hard. However over the years of research I have done I have found a greater link to basic hygiene
and sanitation than there are to vaccines. crikey. Vaccines cause adhd/autism/etc just as much as going to middle school causes puberty.
Seriously this coincidence of timing has been the only link but people who needed something to blame latched onto it
and now diseases that hadn't been a problem for decades are cropping up again.
I don't believe there is such a thing as a live virus. They do not have any of the attributes of living things.
The terms should probably be active and deactivated. As to the conclusion that vaccines cause more harm than good the statistical data is absent from the article
and commentary to draw that conclusion. There is an argument that we use too many vaccines
and inhibit the natural development of antibody production by the immune system. The complexity of the issue makes relevant comment difficult.
Royceee This is a foolish article that ignores a lot of science you quote studies but I will bet the farm you do not know who did all the studies you quote
or who paid for them. Safe levels of mercury!!!give me a break there is NO safe level of mercury let alone for an infant.
If vaccines were so safe why are there laws to protect the vaccine manufacturers from legal action
Popular science should do a lot more research not just listen to the drug and pharmaceutical industry.
This makes this fine magazine nothing more than a mouthpiece for big pharma. Kerri Rivera in Mexico probably has the highest success rate in curing autism
and associated brain conditions and the process is clean water clean food oxygen and cleansing the body of toxins.
Do an article on this wonderful lady she Is posted in Puerto vallarta by CACL Canadian Anti Corruption League.
Vaccine Crazy's? Is that what they call parents that are skeptical of whats going on these days?
and the pharmaceutical industry with all the light thats been shining on their dark sides recently. Thanks Popsci for making my decision to cancel that much easier.
For the record there have been known proven issues with vaccines in the past. There are still baby-boomers floating around that nobody who knows the situation denies were damaged by vaccines.
Seems there's been testimony in front of congress about Salk polio vaccine released for public use between 1955 and 1963 was contaminated with SV40;
and SV40 has been proven to cause cancer in animals. Okay that's just old news fair enough let's pretend everything is safe now.
Then explain; Vaccine Court Awards Millions to Two Children With Autism Posted: 01/14/2013 http://www. huffingtonpost. com/david-kirby/post2468343 b 2468343. htmlyeah that's rather recent factual and disturbing.
Now while we're calling people crazies we might just want to put things in perspective.
And who is tasked with raising a child damaged by vaccines...Their parents. So to sit back
and hope they're in the majority of vaccine recipients who have no ill effects...
I and many other people aren't having children to be pharmaceutical guinea pigs. And to be honest all this hacking the immune system with vaccines
and such is most likely just making the immune system weaker over generations. Where did a gluten allergy come from?
Where did peanut allergies come from? And quite a few other conditions or allergies that weren't just discovered because the science advanced.
Don't worry though I won't be sending my un vaccinated feral children to your state ran institutionalized learning facilities to possibly contaminate your pharmaceutical guinea pig state owned children.
This is why I didn't renew. To political and poor writing. No matter what side of the fence you are on how is this article professional?
I should pick up a copy of US Weekly. e. a. greenhalgh Popsci is guilty of BAD science/reporting
Most specifically the GSK paxil case wherein they used a ghostwriter to say the drug was safe.
We need GOOD vaccines but we don't need the harm of bad science. Would Popsci give ALL children peanut butter?
No because some are allergic. Same with vaccines. We have understood just GB Syndrome but AFTER harm occurred.
Same with modern vaccines. As more children have survived similarly we have a broader genome with sensitivities.
The INDUSTRY does NOT test adjuvants for sensitivities. There have been NO modern studies on them
and how they interact with the genome. So we may have a bigger pool of children sensitive to various adjuvants which many are put in just to lower the production costs not a true safety concern.
There are NEW studies showing new genome responses to many agents triggering reactions like autism. So for parents to TRUST vaccines NEW studies are needed.
Indeed parents may have to get their own genome mapped in order to know what is safe for them or not.
I have dealt with the federal government and they with hold documents to protect the industry so they get kick backs and a document
I have asked for proves the research at the U of Waterloo was listed officially as so bad as to be feces.
do need we good vaccines. Absolutely but Popsci has done everyone a big disservice and could have dug much deeper into a complex and deadly issue.
I am the only child in my family who received infant vaccinations. I am the only child in my family with food allergies
I am allergic to most raw fruits and vegetables most beans and all tree nuts.
I know this is merely anecdotal evidence but I still wish I had received never infant vaccinations.
It boggles my mind that people still argue about vaccines...just for a better part of last century literally millions of kids around the world caught
and died from entirely preventable diseases like smallpox measles and whooping cough. And by not getting vaccinated you aren't just putting your child at risk.
All the other children who aren't vaccinated also are at additional risk because you as a parent made a stupid decision.
The society as a whole is in danger of losing herd immunity because of uninformed parents. And study after study after study have shown absolutely NO connection between MMR vaccine
and autism and side effects of vaccines are understood already well and those at risk are told prior to immunization.
And if you want to put vaccinations in terms of risk management it's not even close! And on top of this vaccines have become much more efficient and reliable just in the past 30 years.
For example the immune-load of current vaccines (even though this overloading of immune system from vaccines is a complete myth correctly stated in the article) is 10%to that of vaccines from the 70's
which protected against smaller number of diseases. There is complete scientific consensus on the efficacy and benefits of vaccines and while
I can't deny the well intention of anti-vaccination people they are doing a terrible terrible harm to the society by spreading ridiculous information.
Thanks Pop-sci for taking a stand and for this article. Labeling any segment of your readership crazies is a sure way to bring down their wrath
I couldn't resist. Personally I harbor no strong opinions one way or another regarding vaccinations.
In the US most cases of any serious vaccinated disease are so rare I'm more inclined to see us start weaning our bodies away from the need to be protected from our environment.
How else is our body going to adapt in the next few hundred thousand years of microbial invasion?
My wife on the other hand not-so much. Do I call her crazy for being concerned for my kids well-being hell no.
The simple fact your arrogance and insensitivity to the facts and experiences of others only fuels their resolve and diminishes your argument.
Therefore if popsci talked negative of vaccines they would lose big pharma funding. This is how all the corporate news works.
Using the rule everything effects everything it also turns out vaccines cause autism. corporate news depends on $ not truthif you don't mind gambling with your child's health forget the vaccinations.
when most kids were vaccinated not andoddly enough those of us who didn't get vaccinated suffered through the illnesses mentioned above
There is about as much consensus in the scientific medical community about the safety and efficiency of vaccines as there is in the physics community for the validity of the theory of relativity.
There is no controversy. If you give in to logical fallacies or if your research consists of going on the internet with no ability to tell which sites are actually backing up their claims with real scientific evidence then doing your own research means absolutely nothing.
The entire anti-vaccine hoax is based on fear among parents who genuinely want the best for their kids a failure to realize that anecdotal evidence is not evidence
A real outbreak of polio or smallpox or something that will actually kill your face would probably have all of these sitting at home self proclaimed biology experts who without any real education speculate that hey I think personally that vaccines probably messes with our immune system
and makes us have allergies to run for the nearest actual doctor. So you don't like being called crazy probably
Just for the sake of accuracy vaccines don't prevent illness or disease. They are generally homeopathic in operation.
whether my body has been introduced previously to that pathogen. I think most of the readers here realize that this is a poorly written article that is biased in nature
and contrary to the name of the publication offering very little in the way of'scientific'analysis. It also shouldn't surprise the readers that a national publication would take the'popular'view on the vaccination debate.
The fact that By Nov 30 2009 the mercury-based preservative thimerosal had only been phased out of most vaccines shows that the medical field is retracting their mistakes as of only 4 years ago.
There is much more to the vaccine debate and not in an all-in or all-out manner then this article lets on.
