 Killer cells that seek out and destroy cancer
Killer cells that seek out and destroy cancer may seem like the stuff of fiction, but it may become a reality at the Santa Rosa Beach-based Good Samaritan Institute.
Doug Liles, founder for the institute, recently opened talks with St. Jude hospital in a move to expand its educational offerings to include such cutting-edge research.
The idea is to facilitate lab training for oncologists using N-K cells, or natural killer cells, developed by doctors at St. Jude in Memphis, Tenn.“
It is one of the most amazing things I have seen in my life,” the microbiologist said of a video demonstration he saw of “supercharged” cells, which search out and kill nine cancer cells, rest and then begin seeking nine more cancer cells to kill.

 What do Seaside Neighborhood School, the 1980s film “Ghostbusters” and bug-grabbing robots have in common? Why, the Emerald Coast B.E.S.T. Robotics Competition, of course.
Now in its fifth year, the Seaside Robotics Team has worked out all the bugs, taking an overall win at the Emerald Coast B.E.S.T. Robotics Competition held Oct. 29 at the University of West Florida in Pensacola. The team edged out 20 adversaries to earn a spot in the South’s B.E.S.T. Competition to be held at Auburn University Dec. 2-3.
The Robotics B.E.S.T. competitions, Boosting Engineering Science and Technology, are a part of a larger Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) movement designed to sustain young students’ interest in these fields.
