The sense of abandonment is so real in Afghanistan right now. So many women begging for help, afraid of a Taliban take over and what that would mean for them.

A nearly 6,000 year old piece of chewing gum, found in Scandinavia, perfectly preserved the DNA of its chewer. She was a young, hunter-gatherer girl, with dark skin, brown hair & blue eyes, who had recently eaten a meal of hazelnuts & duck. Archaeology is amazing.

As you may know, I have spent the past 25 years growing cells in culture as part of my work in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Over time, I have become increasingly concerned about our impact on the planet and how it will affect future generations. In the last 5
