There are two thousand species named every year in royal botanic gardens. Estimated 70000 species still not named which are still laying there. Its goes with today’s #BS1012 lecture to show how diverse plants can be and not only that they can survive in harsh conditions due to adaptation. It also shows that we don’t live in animals’ world but in fact we live in plants’ world. - Nathan Gill

really cool to have you representing this university - Nathan Gill

For me google reader is annoyance. This is because the articles come up in large numbers as a list with no pictures and when I come home tired it doesn’t help looking at dull text. There are many articles which can sometimes come up at once which is overwhelming. On the other hand it’s easy to follow all of them. But for me I don’t have enough time to go on google reader to look at all the articles and read every day. It can definitely do with some pictures or colour. I am subscribed to about 15 feeds but large numbers of posts are unread. I can most definitely live without it. - Nathan Gill

I know what you mean about there being alot of articles which you probably won't read. When you find a journal which frequently contains articles that interest you however, I think you'll find google reader to be very useful. Alot of the articles posted on google reader from the Journal of Creation, for example, I really like. Also, I think alot of articles will become more relevant when we start to revise/learn/research certain topics. - Nan Pu

This might be a bit late for lectures but for revision purposes it goes well with #BS1003 and #BS1015. It explains that DNA intiator proteins play a direct role in cell processes. And mutations in DNA replication genes can lead to defective gene expression - Nathan Gill

Its a really interesting article have a read. - Nathan Gill

This gives more insight on roles of chromatin. Its goes well with #BS1003 and helps in revision. - Nathan Gill

Shows how change in evironment can bring about an organism that was not intended. But can also sometimes turn out to be a good. In this case great white sharks were a mistake but for them it was a good a mistake. - Nathan Gill

Goes well with #BS1012 in discussing the relationship between small sea creature to humans and how rapidly they are evolving. They also found the genome for this has roughly same number of genes in human genome. - Nathan Gill

It explains how important a protein's structure is to its role. In this case CBS's full lenght was decoded to provide a molecular explanation for homocystinuria due to CBS defects. homocystinuria occurs due to mutation in the gene of CBS. It goes well with #BS1015 lectures to understand how a minor change in gene can lead to mutations - Nathan Gill

This research how a cell has evolved to allow enzymes to function well. How big a difference it is from having a test tube environment to a cell compact environment for enzymes to work at their peak. It goes well with #BS1003 lectures about cell diversity. - Nathan Gill

Explain how changing a protein's structure, changing its function, goes well with #BS1015. This can potentially help combat diseases as all reactions in the body require enzymes as biological catalysts. - Nathan Gill

this attempts to explain origin of eukarotic cells and is linked with #BS1003 - Nathan Gill

this goes really well #bs1015 about drugs targeting specific DNA sequence to disturb their metabolism - Nathan Gill

this goes really well with #BS1003 module and prof Cundiliffe's lectures on homologous dna. It also links in with prof Patheson's lecture on origin of eukaryortes - Nathan Gill

75% is a first class mark, you should be pleased. Next, to improve. - Dr Alan Cann

went in biological sciences office but only papers marked by paul henderson were there - Nathan Gill

a series of lectures explaining rna replication with great detail. Goes well with bs1015 - Nathan Gill

Dont forget the hashtag before the module code so it goes directly with the other #BS1015 posts:) - giannis koukkidis

this is really helpful for me especially as i cant write and listen effectively - Nathan Gill
