Some already speak about the Holy Grail of the medical research. For others, it is a reminder of the methods used by doctor Frankenstein. American scientists have succeeded in bringing a dead heart back to life. The first experiments took place in the University of [...]

Amongst all the ‘2007 in Photos’ features around at this time of year, and since looking at the Unicef photos posted by MP, I’ve been reading about an organisation called Kids With Cameras. What interests me with this and the British organisation Photovoice is that [...]
