Jennifer Doudna. Co-founder of CRISPR-Cas9. She co-invented CRISPR-Cas9. It changed biology worldwide. In 1964, she was born in the USA. In 1989, she completed her PhD in Biochemistry at Harvard University. In 2012, she co-invented CRISPR-Cas9. 1. CRISPR-Cas9, a gene-editing tool that cuts and modifies DNA. 2. It offers hope to treat genetic diseases. 3. […]
Perception is how the brain interprets the world around us. Scientists are using neural devices to study this process. Brain imaging tools allow researchers to see which regions are active during perception. EEG and functional MRI are commonly used. The occipital cortex and parietal regions are strongly involved. Neural devices help track activity in these
Lucid dreaming is when a person is aware they are dreaming. Scientists are using biotechnology to study and support these experiences. Brain imaging tools allow researchers to observe active regions during lucid dreams. EEG and functional MRI are commonly used in studies. The prefrontal cortex is strongly involved in self-awareness during dreams. Biotech helps track
Mind-body separation refers to the feeling of being aware of oneself outside the physical body. Scientists are studying this using brain interfaces. Brain interfaces are devices that read neural signals. They allow researchers to understand how the brain creates sensations of detachment. The temporoparietal junction is strongly involved in mind-body perception. Brain interfaces help monitor

Consciousness is our awareness of ourselves and the world. Scientists are using biotechnology to map how the brain creates this experience. Brain imaging tools allow researchers to see which regions are active during thought, perception, and attention. Functional MRI and EEG are commonly used. The prefrontal cortex and parietal regions are strongly involved. Mapping these
Spatial awareness is how we understand our position in space. Scientists are studying it using biotechnology. Brain imaging tools allow researchers to see which areas are active during movement and navigation. EEG and functional MRI are commonly used. The parietal cortex is strongly linked to spatial perception. Biotech experiments measure its activity during different tasks.
Out-of-body experiences, or OBEs, make people feel as if they are outside their body. Scientists are studying these experiences using sensory feedback technology. Sensory feedback technology measures signals from the body and brain. It provides information about balance, touch, and movement. This technology can recreate sensations similar to an OBE in a controlled environment. Volunteers
Neural pathways shape how the brain understands the world. Biotech is now helping scientists map these pathways in ways that were not possible before. This work is giving a clearer picture of how perception forms in the mind. Modern imaging tools allow researchers to observe signals moving through the brain. Methods like functional MRI and
Scientists have studied unusual awareness states for many years. Some people report moments that feel like leaving their body or moving through a different space. Biotech tools now help researchers understand these astral like descriptions in a scientific way. Researchers start by studying the brain areas linked to awareness. Brain imaging shows that the parietal

The link between the mind and body has been studied for centuries. Today biotech tools are giving scientists new ways to explore this connection. These tools allow researchers to see how thoughts influence physical reactions and how the body affects mental states. Modern brain imaging is one important method. Tools like EEG and fMRI show
