Default Providing a cure for cancer.

I fold all the time throughout the year.

While we are all folding together, check this out.

The mole rat may help us in our fight.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before.
If this topic needs to be moved do so.
However the relevance is that we fold to find a cure for cancer + others.

That is a horrible looking animal. But very interesting to hear. Didn't know naked mole rats didn't feel pain...

At first I thought it was a potato ^_^


So in order to not get cancer... We just need to become naked and have hive minds. Sounds easy enough!

That was probably the worst animal I have ever seen!

Now those scientists just have to figure out how to modify our cells so we don't get cancer and so they can put our hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of computer equipment to shame.

A very interesting article, I've learned quite a few things about naked mole rats now

Amazing to hear that they might be able to help stop/cure cancer, I need one as a pet as a reward

Edit: Sigged.
