Humans began to domesticate horses around 4000 B.C. Horses have since played a crucial role throughout human history, from warfare to agriculture, displaying natural feats of speed, strength, and endurance.

Size is definitely not an indicator of strength. The average human in fairly decent, not extraordinary, condition can lift somewhere around 120-160 pounds. Animals, on the other hand, display amazing feats of strength. There is not a common determining factor relative to strength in animals.

The use of cell based assays to investigate cell migration in wound healing is not new to the field of cellular biology. However, advances in technology and standardization of methods, as well as the development of better quality life science products, have made the study of cell behavior more accurate and cost-effective.

Every four years the world is treated to the best in friendly competition. And at this year’s summer Olympics in London, we’re sure to see some amazing feats of athletic prowess.

Cell migration is necessary for the existence of any multicellular organism. In humans and animals—in addition to millions of other multicellular organisms—cell migration is necessary for tissue growth, which occurs as part of embryonic and fetal development, immune response, wound healing, and tissue regeneration.

We all watched in amazement as the world's top athletes performed at their best in the 2012 Olympics. During sixteen days of glory, athletes of all shapes, sizes, ages and origins won medals, set records and accomplished feats that captured the imagination of a huge world audience. Thousands of fans poured into Olympic venues to witness history and spend money in record amounts.

Stem cell research leads the way of revolutionizing methods of treating human diseases. It’s a paradigm shift of enlisting one’s body resources to fights its own diseases as well as repair and rebuild worn out and damage cells and tissues.
