Summary: | The latest developments in health, medicine, environmental issues, space and technology feature in this exciting and thought-provoking package of science stories. This episode looks at one of America's leading breast cancer clinics which has joined forces with the Dalai Lama's former physician to determine whether Tibetan herbs can make a difference; teams of specialists who have discovered a new world complete with it's own plants and new insect species in the rainforest canopy with the help of a 47 metre tall construction crane; researchers in New Zealand have devised a new theoretical model of the brain which can not only help to identify when an anesthetized patient is waking up, but could also be an important step in our understanding of human consciousness; and research into the potential of honey to replace antibiotics in livestock. |
