Seven Great Discoveries in Medicine and Science, that Mankind Expected in 2011

Seven Great Discoveries in Medicine and Science, that Mankind Expected in 2011In 2010, German doctors have treated a man infected with HIV. Other researchers have discovered a drug called PLX4032, which "melts" cancerous tumors from patients who were not treated by traditional methods. In addition, in 2010, for the first time scientists have created a form of "synthetic life" by bacterial DNA synthesis and introduction into a host cell. And then, about the findings would be that we should expect in 2011?

Prediction no. 1: The vaccine against HIV. American Story with AIDS who was treated by a team of doctors in Germany have been on the front page of newspapers worldwide. The man was diagnosed HIV positive, and while suffering a very serious form of leukemia. In 2007 doctors had done a bone marrow transplant in an attempt to treat cancer. The man was quite lucky to find a bone marrow donor who had a rare gene mutation called Delta 32, which confers a natural resistance to human immunodeficiency virus.

Ingenious brain of Albert Einstein

Ingenious_brain_of_Albert_EinsteinAlbert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist. He is best known for his theory of relativity and specifically mass–energy equivalence. Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect."

In 1999, Albert Einstein was named "Person of the Century" by Time magazine, a Gallup poll recorded him as the fourth most admired person of the 20th century and according to The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History, Einstein is "the greatest scientist of the twentieth century and one of the supreme intellects of all time."

A partial list of his memorials:

Scientists named the main reason of global warming

global_warming_or_global_coolingThe Global warming which has resulted from the increase of hotbed gases concentration, will lead to humidity increase in atmosphere. To such conclusion have come scientists from University of the New Southern Wales and the Texas University (USA).

As water steams in itself are hotbed gases, this process will be interfaced to additional growth of temperature. The American experts mentioned, because of additional levels of humidity the climate on the planet within next century is capable to change considerably. Professor Andrew Dessler, one of the researchers, named this interrelation a vicious circle: the rise of temperature promotes humidity which in turn influences weather conditions.

According to assumptions of experts concerning climatic models on the planet the next hundred years, for this period there will be a considerable elaboration of water steams as response to global warming. By last estimations the temperature on the Earth will increase from 2 to 4 degrees — if such scenario becomes true, it can have catastrophic long-term consequences.
