Censorship as Protection
Thank you Vocal.media for keeping safety top of mind for all your content creators and vast and growing readership! Truly, you are a great friend of the people and so very wise and benevolent. As a creator myself, I count myself lucky to have my stories censored by you. There can be little doubt that many of the stories you rejected for objectionable graphic or religious content, would have have resulted in some very unsafe outcomes, had they been published in their original, highly unsafe form. I can barely imagine the horrors that may have unfolded if the brave censorship boards at Vocal had not caught my unsafe writings before they were recklessly published on the internet for anyone to see and use for whatever unsafe and no doubt nefarious purposes they might.

May-Britt Moser first woman to win Nobel prize
In partnership with her husband Edvard Moser and John, Britt Moser received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for scientific purposes at the Kavli Institute (ranked 15th in the world, 4th in neuroscience) and advances in understanding neural circuits and programs in 2014. From 2003 to 2012, he founded the Center for Biology and Memory Research, a Norwegian-sponsored fitness center, and led the Center for Neural Computation, the second fitness center to exist from 2013 to 2022. As head of the institute in Trondheim, Moser-Moser and his research team are investigating the effective functioning of the cell and circuit network and their role in building memory in the hippocampus and its benefits.

Genome editing-Greatest human Discovery
Advanced genetic engineering technology is a molecular tool called CRISPR / Cas9, a powerful technology discovered by American scientist Jennifer Doudna and French scientist Emmanuelle Charpentier and her colleagues in 2012 and developed by another American scientist, Feng Zhang, and colleagues. In good studies demonstrating its bacterial activity, researchers have found Cas9's ability to direct enzymes that break down DNA in genetic engineering. Jin-Soo Kim, a genome engineer at the Institute for Basic Science in Daejeon, South Korea, is one of the first to become familiar with CRISPR genetic engineering and says he was so excited about the Nobel Prize that he was surprised that biochemist Dana Carroll of the University of Utah in Salt Lake City ignored.

To what extent is the use of animals in scientific research acceptable?
An estimated 1.7-2.2 million vertebrates are used for research, training, and testing each year, with less than 1 percent of people killed for food.9 About 85 percent of these rodents and mice were bred for research purposes. The largest proportion (50%) of animals (37%) are mice used in basic research to improve the health and protection of various species, as well as research used such as the development of antibiotics and vaccines. Another important area is drug research and vaccine and other biological research and cancer research (30%), and animals are used for other purposes such as basic research and diagnosis.
