Many questions could not be answered due to a lack of available technology, but many others could be answered through the process of trial and error. Over time, the way humans ask and answer questions about the natural world was developed and shaped into what is now called the scientific method. It allows scientists to conduct research in a systematic, organized fashion. As humans make new scientific discoveries, they are able to develop additional technologies. For example, historically people used the bark and leaves from the willow tree to treat fevers and pains. This was a traditional medicine that people shared with one another via word of mouth. As technology advanced, the materials from the willow tree could be analyzed in a lab and the components could be studied to see which natural chemicals were responsible for reducing the fevers and pain. Research showed that the willow tree contained a form of salicylic acid that gave it its’ healing powers. This scientific research led to the development of the aspirin we use today which is now mass produced (and that you have probably taken at some point in your lifetime). You depend on many technologies throughout your day that make your modern life possible. In this assignment you will look at some of these technologies and the scientific discoveries that made them possible. You will evaluate both the negative and positive impacts of these discoveries. You will also broaden your scope to look at how different cultures with different levels of access to technology approach the same problem - health care. Part I Science in your personal and professional life Think about your day from the time you wake up to the time that you go to sleep. List four technologies that you rely on and would find it difficult to get through your day or night without. Discuss any negative impacts these technologies have on your life, society, and the environment. Think about your day from the time you wake up to when you go to sleep. Describe the one scientific discovery that you think is the most important for making modern life possible. List as many negative and positive impacts you can think of that this scientific discovery and the technologies that it allowed to be developed may have. Evaluate and discuss if the positives outweigh the negatives overall, or whether the negatives outweigh the positives. Part II Science and technology in a multicultural world Many research programs around the world focus on the discovery of cures to ailments from cancer to mental illness. Modern society invests a great deal of money, and time while pushing the boundaries of modern technology to develop new cures and improve existing treatments. Review the Unit 9 Assignment Resources. Describe one advantage and one disadvantage to the westernized high-tech research approach to medical treatment. Describe one advantage and one disadvantage to using traditional medicine as an approach to medical treatment. Are there benefits to having multicultural approaches to medical treatment? Explain your answer. Could these two cultural approaches both be improved by drawing upon the other? Why or why not? Discuss any challenges there may be in combining these two different cultural approaches to treatment that have a very different level of reliance on scientific research and technology. Basic Writing Expectations: At least 1000 words not counting the title or reference pages. Include a title page, double spaced, font size 10 or 12.

One Ladybug's Surprise Appearance During A 59- Year-Old Man's Colonoscopy The Man Who Learned He Could Suck Water Up Into His Anus And Turned It Into A Career By Benjamin Taub 30 JUN 2016, 11:27 EXPERIENCE IT ALL GET REAL, SAVE UP TO 15% BOOK NOW For hundreds – perhaps thousands – of years, Amazonian shamans have protected the health of their communities using a sacred hallucinogenic brew, said to be capable of healing all manner of physical and psychological ailments. Known as ayahuasca, this traditional medicine contains a potent psychoactive compound called DMT, which has been shown in several studies to ease symptoms of depression and other mental disorders. Though scientists are yet to uncover most of the secrets behind the healing power of this plant-based medicine, researchers from the Beckley/Sant Pau Research Programme – in collaboration with the Spanish Medical Research Council – have now revealed that certain compounds in ayahuasca can actually stimulate the birth of new neurons.

Here's Why You Really Shouldn't A Boy Went Without Sleep For An 11-Day School Project – And Hallucinations Kicked In WEEK IN SCIENCE Given that many cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease are associated with neuron death in key regions of the brain, the team behind this stunning discovery believe that ayahuasca’s potential to bring about neurogenesis could one day lead to new treatments for many such ailments. For instance, those who suffer from Alzheimer’s often experience a significant reduction in the volume of their hippocampus – a part of the brain that is responsible for learning and memory. However, a team of researchers led by Jordi Riba were able to successfully stimulate the development of hippocampal stem cells into both young and mature neurons by mixing them in a petri dish with two compounds found in ayahuasca: harmine and tetrahydroharmine. Reacting to this groundbreaking discovery, Beckley Foundation founder and director Amanda Feilding told IFLScience that “we were pretty amazed at the results – the fact that we were able to generate new brain cells and then mature brain cells from harmine and tertrahydroharmine. They seem to be remarkably prolific.” Though a full study outlining this research is yet to be published, the team have released a series of images that illustrate just how successful their experiments have been, as can be seen below.
