Printing Human Organs With a Handheld Device?

Freedomist Editor July 14, 2023

Researchers from the University of Victoria in Canada have developed a handheld on-site bioprinter that is capable of printing complex “biocompatible structures.” The device is the first of its kind that can not only print complex structures but can do it on-site. Potential applications could include printing structures used for breast implants for breast reduction surgery breast cancer patients need.

One researcher from the team, Associate Professor Mohsen Akbari said in a press release, “Two decades ago, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, which eventually led to the removal of her breast. This affected her well-being considerably. It made me realize that a technology like handheld bioprinting could not only help develop personalized implants for breast reconstruction that match the shape and size of the patient’s tissue, but also be used to create tumor models for the study of breast cancer biology. Such applications could significantly improve treatment outcomes for affected patients.”

From studyfinds.org:

“The standout feature of this handheld device is its multiple bio ink cartridges, each controlled independently by a pneumatic system. This level of control empowers operators to develop structures with the desired properties. The device also includes a cooling module and a light-emitting diode photocuring module, adding further control and versatility.”

Scientists Lied About Covid-19 Origins Over Fear of China

Freedomist Editor July 13, 2023

U.S. House Republicans are uncovering a paper trail from scientists around the world in the early months of Covid-19 who all seemed ready to investigate whether the plandemic virus came from a Wuhan lab in China until they thought about the fear of upsetting their masters, the Chinese Communist Party. One such exchange was exposed in the Daily Mail which shows University of Edinburgh biologist Dr. Andrew Rambaut expressing fears of even suggesting the virus was accidently released from a Chinese lab, saying it would cause a “political s#$t show.”

Knowing the origins of a virus is crucial to understanding how to potentially treat patients fighting the virus, but the world medical establishment, including the U.S., all felt allowing the world to fly blind in fighting a virus that killed tens of millions worldwide rather than upset their de facto Chinese masters. As the saying goes, if you want to know who the real power is, find out who you cannot question or doubt. In America and much of the West, it seems China is at the top of that list, with anyone not white, “cis”-gendered, heterosexual, or binary being a close second.

U.S. Water Supply Contaminated with Forever Chemicals

Freedomist Editor July 11, 2023

A Government Accounting Office (GAO) study found that 25 percent of tested U.S. water had “forever chemicals” in them. The study sampled water from 5,800 water systems in six states. It found 18 percent of the systems tested had forever chemicals present, which affected 25 percent of the population of the six states sampled.

The study was done in 2022 and is just now garnering attention as states consider what to do in response to this news. The EPA plans on conducting more tests this year and to continue to monitor the systems that showed the presence of forever chemicals.

Here is what the GAO found:

Recent drinking water data from six selected states show that at least 18 percent of the states’ 5,300 total water systems had at least two per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)—perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctane sulfonate—above the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 2022 interim revised health advisory levels. Over these levels, adverse health effects can occur and EPA plans to regulate these two PFAS in drinking water in 2023. GAO found that 978 water systems had the two PFAS at or above EPA’s minimum reporting level of 4 per trillion (ppt)—the lowest level reliably quantified by most laboratories—and above EPA’s health advisory levels. These systems served 9.5 million (29 percent) of the total 33 million people served by all the systems (see fig.).

Printing New Blood Vessels is Now Possible

Freedomist Editor June 14, 2023

Thanks to something called Volumetric printing, researchers believe they have developed a 3D printing technique that will allow hospitals to print blood vessels for patients in need.

According to the results of a study conducted by the Regenerative Medical Center Utrecht (RMCU), researchers believe they can now 3D Print fully functional blood cells, Until this breakthrough, researchers could print blood cells, but they were not very structurally sound. The study has created a technique that will hopefully lead to proof-of-concept productions in the near future.

From newswise:

The process starts with the creation of a tubular scaffold using melt electrowriting. This is then submerged into a vial with photoactive gel and placed in the volumetric bioprinter. In principle, the laser of the printer can selectively solidify the gel that sits in, on and/or around the scaffold. “In order to get this right, we had to place the scaffold exactly center in the vial,” first author Gabriël Größbacher says. “Any deviation from the center would mean that the volumetric print would be off-set. But we managed to center it perfectly by printing the scaffold on a mandril that we fitted to the vial.”

In this study, Größbacher and colleagues tested various thicknesses of the scaffold, which resulted in more or less strong tubes. Finally, they also tested various placements of the bioprinted gels. These could either be placed on the inner side of the scaffold, inside the scaffold itself or on the outside of it. By using two differently labeled stem cells, the team was able to print a proof of principle blood vessel with two layers of stem cells, and seeded epithelial cells in the center to cover the lumen of the vessel.

Scientists Claim They Can Generate New Brain Cells in Adults

Freedomist Editor March 7, 2023

Researchers from the Universities of Geneva and Lausanne have discovered a way to generate new neurons in brains. Theoretically, they believe the technique, which was successfully carried out in adult mice, can be used to generate neurons in adult humans. The discovery could lead to reversals of neuron loss from neurodegenerative diseases.

The technique involves reactivating neural stem cells, which are the cells from which the brain originally formed. One of the researchers, Francesco Petrelli, said of the discovery, ‘‘We found that mitochondria, the energy-producing organelles within cells, are involved in regulating the level of activation of adult NSCs.”

A Cure for Covid-19?

Freedomist Editor March 1, 2023

Researchers at UK’s University of Cambridge believe they can create a class of Covid-19 killer drugs using a gene-cutting technology that could use artificial enzymes to surgically cut the virus’ RNA genome.

From Scientific American:

Popular CRISPR gene-editing tools can also target RNA, but the human immune system sometimes reacts poorly to the bacterial enzymes used. XNAzymes are not found in nature, making them less likely to trigger an immune system attack. They also don’t rely on co-opting extra components from within the cell; this might reduce side effects. “All contemporary RNA treatments make use of cellular machinery,” says biomedical engineer Roy van der Meel of Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands, who was not involved in the new research. “This is a pair of stand-alone scissors.”

The breakthrough promises to threaten the use of Covid-19 as another round of lockdowns and vaccine mandates, so critics are skeptical of any effective follow-up to these initial findings.

Australian Report Shows Vaccinated Far More Likely to Die of Covid-19

Paul Collier January 11, 2023

An Australian data analyst recently produced a graph based on his analysis of Covid-19 cases that reveals the vaccinated are more at risk of getting Covid-19. The analyst is only known by the Twitter handle @LCHF_Matt.

One of the most disturbing discoveries of the analysis is that the more boosters you get, the more likely you are to both get AND die of Covid-19. The analyst tweeted, “Given I believe IR by vax status in hosp. is a reflection on IR in the community, there is a disturbing correlation between vax rates and IR. Why are those with more vaxes catching Covid at higher rates? ADE? Damaged immune system? Very concerning, and no one seems to care!”

The effort by the most powerful in the world to prevent human beings from enjoying the individual-empowering advantages of today’s technological reality is failing. The ability to convince people that lies are truths and truths are lies is fast being destroyed, as only the kool-aid drinking crowd (an ever-shrinking crowd) takes anything these elites say seriously at this point.

The elites have three choices, build a better propaganda department able to fool people without using ANY of the old tactics that have all been sussed out, seize complete and total control over our lives before we figure out how much technology has freed us from dependence on their one big system solution, or kill the non-conforming, by any means necessary.

On the first front, they have little “new tactics” left to deploy. Humans have exhausted all the major tactics of deception, including mass-media deception. On the second front, as the elites push for more control, more normies are being shattered, only to become truly awake (as opposed to woke, which really means docile acceptance of authority’s claims) to the depraved tactics of a depraved people, the ruling class, who’ve allowed themselves to become so insulated from the rest of humanity they no longer even resemble them, and they’ve all grown to hate them (us, that is, we humans).

In China, a new trend is happening where Chinese netizens are calling themselves huminerals, as in human minerals, raw materials for the ruling elite. In America, we too are waking up to the humineral reality, and Covid-19 was the man-made virus that was designed to do just that, convert a free people to huminerals, while killing off those who refused to become nothing but a flesh mine for an alien species, the ruling elite.

Two Years After Mandating Covid-19 Vaccine, Safety is Now Ready to be Tested

Freedomist Editor November 14, 2022

PFIZER AND MODERNA NOW READY TO DETERMINE IF COVID-19 VACCINES ARE SAFE – More than two years after the Food and Drug Administration issued an emergency approval of two wildly experimental Covid-19 vaccines, the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, the two companies protected by the Federal government from consequence are now ready to start studies to see if the vaccines are safe. So far, the Pfizer study is already suggesting the link between the Covid-19 vaccine and the heart condition called myocarditis is real.

Pfizer and Moderna clinical trials linking vaccine to myocarditis – www.theblaze.com
Excerpt:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on Dec. 11, 2020. A week later, the FDA issued an EUA for Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine. Now, nearly two years later, Pfizer and Moderna will launch clinical trials to track adverse health issues stemming from the COVID-19 vaccines, such as myocarditis – inflammation of the heart muscle.

Pfizer is in the infancy of beginning clinical trials to determine if there are any health risks associated with their own vaccine. In a partnership with the Pediatric Heart Network, the trial will focus on vaccine recipients who have suffered heart issues following being jabbed with the COVID-19 vaccine. The clinical trials will monitor patients for five years.

Enrollment for the study in the U.S. and Canada has not started yet. However, the research team has already identified more than 250 patients with myocarditis, according to Dr. Dongngan Truong – a pediatrician at…

The Source of Rare Disease Discovered Within Us

Freedomist Editor November 7, 2022

A SECRET GENOMIC KEY TO UNCOMMON DISEASES DISCOVERED – A group of researchers out of the University of Exeter in the UK have released a study demonstrating the discovery of an area of our genes that regulates turning genes on or off. The group claims the discovery will lead to an understanding of the underlying causes of rare diseases that would then lead to cures and/or effective therapies for these diseases.

…..A region of the genome that has received little attention in medical genetics has become the source of a rare illness. A group at the University of Exeter has discovered genetic alterations in an area that regulates the function of the genome by turning genes on or off. As a result, they have found a key that could help identify further causes of uncommon illnesses.

This research is a very unusual instance of a disease caused by mutations beyond the exome, the area of the genome that codes for genes. A gene called HK1 that ordinarily plays no part in the relevant body tissue, in this case, the pancreas, has, for the first time, been found to be impacted by alterations.

The Unbelievably Powerful Threat Addiction Poses

Bill Collier September 13, 2022

ADDICTION IS DEADLY AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR ANYONE TO CONQUER

Addiction is no joke. It’s not just “well, then stop using!” Judging people and condemning them won’t help at all. It’s awful.

By the grace of God you may not have any life-controlling addictions. Perhaps any addictions one may say you do have are not dangerous to your health and don’t cause you to act in a dangerous way.

But for some, addiction is dangerous and hard to break. The brain itself works against you and is surrounded as it were by a controlling net that supercedes your logic and your freewill. Your brain craves that which could kill you.

People struggling with life-controlling addictions, however they got there, generally don’t have enough willpower in themselves to overcome that drive.

Dealing with people that have addictions is hard. Everything they say is suspect, even if they sincerely mean it and intend to do as they say they will. It feels to them you don’t trust them and you see them as a lesser being, but the truth is that until an addiction is some years in the rearview mirror, that draw is so powerful it can often lead that person to act in ways they don’t want to.

The creation of a living space where addicts cannot access their drug of choice, are under medical and mental health supervision, and can engage in a process of discovery and self-improvement is essential. This probably needs to be a whole year to a year and a half and gainfully “employ” them so they don’t have much time, almost like a boot camp like period and what you go through in the military for your initial specialty training, although not military style.

One concept is a role-playing immersive learning experience in which the patient builds a persona, even a different name, that connects to a fictional storyline, and that becomes an expression of their true inner self sans their old baggage, including their addiction and what led to it.

What if the best way to help such people overcome is for them to experience, even in imagination and if necessary in a VR enhanced situation, their truest innermost self in all its potential instead of merely rehashing why they became an addict?

Certainly, once they are strong in this new persona and begin to really translate the imagined self to their real life self, they will become strong enough to wrestle with and overcome the things that led them to addiction.

Some people don’t like the idea “once an addict, always an addict”, some people believe both in supernatural healing and in novel methods, such as this role-playing immersive learning experience, by which one may eventually get to a place where the draw of addiction decreases or nearly disappears.

Anyone can become an addict, whether they never have or if they have been free for decades. The danger of addiction is something we ought to teach even our children, in the strongest and possibly most graphical way possible.

Once one becomes an addict, we can choose to treat this as a mental illness and try to help, without becoming victims of bad behavior and abuse by the addict, or we can judge and pretend this is somehow beneath us and they are beneath us.
