Foetal signs

Article Abstract:

A research team at Molecular Genetics Services at Monash IVF, Melbourne has developed a new test to detect foetal abnormalities such as Down syndrome and cystic fibrosis as early as five weeks gestation thus allowing the women to decide earlier in their pregnancy whether to have a termination. The test has the potential to supersede current prenatal test because it is quicker, less invasive and most importantly provide parent-to-be with a much earlier diagnosis of genetic problems.

Article Abstract:

Australia's comic book writers such as Jason Rand and Shane McCarthy, and artists such as Queenie Chan, Nicola, Ashley Wood and David Yardin are winning fans internationally with everything from Japanese-style manga novels to comic book versions of CSI and Star Wars. Worry Doll, a work in progress by Tasmanian artist Matt Coyle suggests a new way forward for the comic book genre, maybe a new genre altogether.
