Computational feat speeds finding of genes to milliseconds instead of years
Posted at KurzweilAI.net Accelerating Intelligence NewsMar 16, 12:28 GMT
Computational analysis of existing data bases can dramatically shorten the time required to discover the specific combination of new genes involved in certain biological processes, Stanford University researchers have found. The analytic methods can provide clues about where researchers should look next, such as finding new genes that play a role in developing cancers. More info: Stanford School of Medicine (Source: )

Fingertip Bacteria: A Promising Forensic Tool
Posted at KurzweilAI.net Accelerating Intelligence NewsMar 16, 08:06 GMT
In a scene out of the movie Gattaca, researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder have matched three individuals to keyboards they used, based on the genetic makeup of microbes on their skin -- their microbiome. The approach, when developed more fully, could potentially provide information where existing forensic techniques fall short, says Martin Blaser, a professor of medicine and microbiology at New York University.

Different parts process deliberately recalled and spontaneously triggered memories
Posted at TechnoccultMar 16, 01:09 GMT
The studies in Kristiina Kompus’s dissertation show that these two different ways of remembering things are initiated by entirely different signal paths in the brain. Efforts to retrieve a specific memory are dealt with by the upper part of the frontal lobe. This area of the brain is activated not only in connection with memory-related [...] Related posts:

The Dropout Economy
Posted at TechnoccultMar 15, 19:31 GMT
Resilient communities hit Time: Imagine a future in which millions of families live off the grid, powering their homes and vehicles with dirt-cheap portable fuel cells. As industrial agriculture sputters under the strain of the spiraling costs of water, gasoline and fertilizer, networks of farmers using sophisticated techniques that combine cutting-edge green technologies with ancient Mayan [...] Related posts:
