Breakthrough in fight against drug-resistant superbugs | Daily Mail Online

'Doctors have long warned of the dangers of antibiotic-resistant superbugs.

These increasingly common bacteria can kill – and so far, drugs cannot stop them.

However, a new discovery has brought the medical community one step closer to wiping out these deadly superbugs.

Scientists from University of East Anglia have uncovered the mechanism by which antibiotic-resistant bacterial cells maintain a defensive barrier.

This finding could lead to new drugs that kill the superbugs by bringing down their defensive walls.'

Originally shared by Corina Marinescu The theory of multiple intelligences is a theory of intelligence that differentiates it into specific (primarily sensory) 'modalities', rather than seeing intelligence as dominated by a single general ability. This model was proposed by Howard Gardner in his 1983 book Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. In the heyday of the psychometric and behaviorist eras, it was generally believed that intelligence was a single entity that was inherited; and that human beings – initially a blank slate – could be trained to learn anything, provided that it was presented in an appropriate way. Nowadays an increasing number of researchers believe precisely the opposite; that there exists a multitude of intelligences, quite independent of each other; that each intelligence has its own strengths and constraints; that the mind is far from unencumbered at birth; and that it is unexpectedly difficult to teach things that go against early ‘naiv...
