This week is special, as lemouth is not really back, but his quantum shadow is spying what is going on with the distilled again! So @lemouth didn't finish as a meal for leopards in India (and met @dexterdev instead). In the meantime, here is a fresh 119thdistilled.
For those who do not know what SteemSTEM is, please take a look here or come say hi on Discord or in the Steem Chat.
Before moving on with the two best posts that have been selected by @lemouth and @mobbs (from all the posts found by our curators last week), here are a few of the most supported posts (of last week):
@ulisesfl17 brought us thuis week a very important topic: suicides, something that concerns 800.000 people yearly and that consists in the second cause of death for the young adults. The post starts from the good old Socrates and discusses suicides until much more recent time, where it is recognised as a psychological issue. Feel free to pass by to know more.
Wit this new series, @scienceblocks describes extensively the techniques he use on a regular basis for his research. Today, the topic concerns qPCR, which is of course related to genes (the of course standing for those following him for some time). The 'q' stands for quantitative, and the 'PCR' is related to a reaction dedicated to DNA amplification. To get more information, please read the post!
