Two really interesting scientific discoveries

Researchers have identified nanotubes between human cells. They may play a role in embryonic development by allowing cells to communicate with each other. The dark side is they may also provide a route for viruses to infect nearby cells while evading the immune system.

And scientists have found a species of bacteria that lives in the human mouth and creates thiol molecules from otherwise odorless sulphur compounds in fruits and vegetables. The thiols are aromatic and probably add to the flavor we perceive when we eat our fruits and veggies or drink wine.

Cheers!
