Vaccine work by mimicking disease agents and stimulating the immune system to build up defenses aganist them.

Here, you will see animations showing how different parts of the immune system respond to vaccination and how that response protects the body from a specific diseases in the future.

We set off in global pursuit of cancer, not just any cancer, but the infectious kind. It's an epic investigation across for continents and 150 million years. There's a classic mystery to be solved, a strange cluster of disease that defies all odds. There are surprising facts and shocking truths... one in three of us will get cancer - we show you how to stack the odds in your favour. And ultimately, armed with new understanding, we reveal that infectious cancers are not bad news but a cause for hope.

Herd immunity is a form of immunity that occurs when the vaccination of a significant portion of a population (or herd) provides a measure of protection for individuals who have not developed immunity.
It arises when a high percentage of the population is protected through vaccination against a virus or bacteria, making it difficult for a disease to spread because there are so few susceptible people left to infect.

If you take 10 communities and run a simulation, it's easy to see why we need as many members of the 'herd' as possible to get vaccines - before it's too late

Astonishingly, science has uncovered the key to unlimited life - and a secret of endless youth. Deep in the DNA of a humble pond creature an Australian-born scientist co-discovered an 'immortalising' enzyme, a chemical catalyst that can keep cells young, forever. In 2009 this discovery was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine. But, this is no simple 'cure' for ageing. For the same enzyme that fuels endless youth, also fuels cancer. IMMORTAL reveals the inner workings of this biological paradox and its remarkable impact on ageing, stress, disease and cancer.

Microscopes proved the existence of single-celledbacteria. However, there was debate about whether bacteria had genes and what attributes they may have in common with higher life forms. This debate was settled in the 1940's, when it was discovered that bacteria have sex. During the process of conjugation, genes are exchanged through a mating channel that links two bacteria.

Electron microscopy suggested that bacterial viruses carry on a similar process. A virus attaches to a host bacterium and injects its genes through its channel-like tail. In 1952, Alfred Hershey showed that DNA, alone, is responsible for the reproduction of new viruses within an infected cell. This provided undeniable support for Avery's earlier experiments that a gene is made of DNA. It also showed that viruses, as well as bacteria, can be used as models for studying universal principles of genetics.
