But is this reductionist view of cell fate overly simplistic?” The above quote is taken from an

Hunting weapons have been used to drive some species toward extinction in a small number of cases, but such weapons have been inconsequential compared with oxygen deprivation inflected

At about 10.30 pm, I started watching a nature show about inexplicable sudden deaths of black rhino, zebras, and deer in a wildlife reserve in South Africa. From scene to scene were pictures of well-preserved animal carcasses. What puzzled the park rangers and

I refer doctors and biologists to the 10th, 11th, and 12th volumes of my textbook, The Principles and Practice of Medicine for a full explanation of my statement. Suggested Courses * Dr. Ali’s

I designate this trial “Dr. Ali’s AD Nutrient Challenge Test” and conduct it for a period of six weeks. This test offers a robust nutritional and detox for improving brain function, and

Here is the basis of my prediction. Amyloid protein deposits in the brain result from brain toxicities and pathologic immune responses to them. The main lesson
