Have you encountered any issues trying to save/print this PDF on a computer?
There seems to be something causing the PDF to be unprintable.

The link won't let me access the file saying it's temporarily unavailable. Any ideas on how I can access it?  :)

Thank you very much! With the overlay 'draft', is this definitely going to be the exact article we'll be assessed on in June?

from the article, im guessing q's on ethics, proteins, genes/gene expression, use of new information as treatment for humans (incl. vectors used in gene therapy etc). neurology..

im not too sure about the last two pages as it mixes theoretical assumptions with the mole rats behaviour, which personally i find quite deceptive.

what are we meant to do with this article?

thanks in advance

I have highlighted important points. Questions are added as sticky notes.
I've stopped at paragraph 27.
Quote me if you need me to add/edit any of the questions or highlighted parts.
