Secure Hematology Lab
It was after hours and he was tired. He returned from a few days off over the holidays with Isa and went straight to work. Once finished, he took the samples he had taken and headed to a lab to start researching. Nomad blood and samples were a rare find, especially from a live one. The lab was small but had all it needed in it to include its own secure computer system. Yes, it could log into other systems but heavy encryptions kept it safe and for darn good reasons. Some would find Nomad research to be intriguing while others saw it as a threat but Doc was a believer in that people fear what they do not understand.
He took a drop of the blood he now had and placed it on a glass slide. He started old school. It was a bluish color. In many respects, he was looking at human blood. Whereas humans had red blood cells, the sample he had contained blue cells. Both had platelets and had cells to fight disease. The big difference was cardamine. Nomad blood had it naturally whereas human blood only had it when injected or inhaled.
There were some things Doc knew already. Nomad cardamine rates were considerably lower. Still, cardamine affected body functions in the same way. Humans addicted to cardamine had low birth rates and it's enhancement on the human body added lifespan and even strength. Cancer among those with it was almost non-existent as well. Still, it was a dependency that many wanted to be free from. For now though, most of that didn't matter. He wanted to study it's effect on birth rates and if he could do anything about it, what would it be? He had time and he had samples, well, some time anyway. He would have to find out when he could.
For now, he had other priorities. The samples were safe here and to ensure it, he restricted this lab to himself with his own code and sequence for door operation. To even those who would pass by, it would look like just another hallway. He locked the samples in a climate controlled vault inside, secured the door and headed to Med Force Academy for other obligations.
