@BrownsGlasgow Wonder when you’ll get back to me with a menu? 4 phone calls later and still none… yet an immediate response for the deposit to be paid 🤔
@meganma67808191@DrDaveT I would have liked to have questioned you more about your poster and viewpoint but we're unfortunately out of time.
All the very best with the rest of your course. 😀
@meganma67808191@DrDaveT Interesting - but Mammoths, for example, died out because they had a mutational issue due to a lack of diversity which caused multiple diseases. Can humans be blamed for that?
@ClaireN112425@DrDaveT Interesting - hopefully it will not be an issue again but may be applicable to other TSE diseases.
Thank you very much for your answers - it's been very interesting to hear your viewpoints. All the very best with the rest of your course. 😀
@Group5StemCells@AlexandruBedre1@DrDaveT Absolutely. It has been a service only available to those who can pay which seems unfair and against the ethos of the NHS. It also makes for a busy delivery room!
Thank you for all your answers - it's been so interesting! All the very best with the rest of your course. 😀
@ClaireN112425@DrDaveT Yes - I read something online that shows it is very rare but still does exist in Papua New Guinea. Last question - given that the last case of Kuru is documented in 2009 - how can the findings from this disease case be used today?
@ClaireN112425@DrDaveT Interesting - perhaps a generational affect will help this too. A couple more questions- how common is cannibalism now globally?
@ClaireN112425@DrDaveT Comfort measures - absolutely. Your poster mentions the reduction in cannibalism and specifically on consumption of the brain. What can be done to address deep seated cultural practices such as this or FGM?
@Group5StemCells@AlexandruBedre1@DrDaveT (2/2) of information from Thermofisher and other public facing websites which are not generally considered robust sources. Can you tell me about any current studies on the benefits of Stem Cell use?
@Group5StemCells@AlexandruBedre1@DrDaveT There is some interesting studies from the UK too that suggests that the public have limited knowledge therefore tend to fall onto the "against" side. You've used a fair amount (1/2)
@Group5StemCells@AlexandruBedre1@DrDaveT Interesting. Do you think the public view stem cells different from fetal tissue? If so, what evidence do you have to support this?
@ClaireN112425@DrDaveT I agree. I think the public awareness of CJD has opened up people's awareness of these types of issues. You mention that there is no cure , what treatments are there- even if non-curative?
@Group886888538 That sadly does seem to be the thinking sometimes.
Thank you very much for your answers - it's been very interesting to hear your viewpoints. All the very best with the rest of your course. 😀
@meganma67808191@DrDaveT Thats a very interesting viewpoint. You mentioned the possibility of mammoths still being alive if humans were not -what about the affect of natural selection and genomic mutations?
