By Alice Park Stem-cell science is a fast-moving field. Just three years since a Japanese researcher first reprogrammed ordinary skin cells into stem cells without the use of embryos, scientists at a Massachusetts biotech company have repeated the feat, only this time with a new method that creates the first stem cells safe enough for …

What if life isn’t just a part of the universe… what if it determines the very structure of the universe itself? For thousands of years we’ve looked to the sky and gods for answers. We landed on the moon—and even flung a piece of metal outside the solar system. But despite the development of super-proton-antiproton-synchrotrons, …

Why in the world do we exist? What sustains us in and above the void of nothingness? A series of experiments hold the answer. I recall an ordinary day that made this obvious. Everyone was already at the hospital making morning rounds. “It doesn’t matter,” I thought as I scraped a patch of ice crystals …
Lanza’s new book “The Grand Biocentric Design” provides a complete explanation of the science behind all this―and the astounding fact that time, space, and reality itself all ultimately depend upon us.
