Summary:
Scientists in Manchester are working to change the social habits of living cells – an innovation that could bring about cleaner and greener fuel and help fight diseases such as cancer and diabetes. Scientists have recently discovered that networking in living cells may determine whether a cell causes diabetes or cancer or helps to maintain our health. By adjusting and modifying the way cells network, researchers believe it’s possible to adjust the behaviour of living cells and reduce the chances of disease occurring.
