This week's Diffusion casts aside vanity and looks at how healthy those belts, braces and bras really are when we try to dress up. The beer drinking scientists ask your opinion on cloning, life in general and the appeal of your own mini-me. Plus in Diffusion News, we look at an insect which has rediscovered the joys of sex after millions of years of celibacy.
