Original Post from X PRIZE Foundation: Jack Andraka's work on creating a simple test for the identification of pancreatic, lung and ovarian cancer is impressive: - His test is 168 times faster than what is currently available. - It’s 26,000 times less expensive. That’s not a typo. - And it’s potentially almost 100% accurate. Oh, and Jack's still in high school. http://www.forbes.com/sites... Jack-Andraka.jpg - mjc

Original Post from Alice Summers: 21st century socialism's first leader has passed 60 years, to the day, after the death of Stalin. While he was certainly a character, the Western press has almost universally been unfair to him. He was no Stalin. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez lost his battle with cancer Tuesday, silencing the leading voice of the Latin American left and plunging his divided oil-rich nation into an uncertain future. “We have... - mjc

Original Post from Ward Plunet: Researchers discover key to heart failure, new therapies on horizon Some 5.8 million Americans suffer from heart failure, a currently incurable disease. But scientists at Temple University School of Medicine's (TUSM) Center for Translational Medicine have discovered a key biochemical step underlying the condition that could aid the development of new drugs to treat and possibly prevent it. The report is the first to show that an enzyme called GRK5 (G-protein coupled receptor kinase 5) can gain access to a heart cell's nucleus – its command center, where control of its genes is maintained – by way of a transport mechanism involving calcium and a protein known as calmodulin. Once calcium and calmodulin deliver GRK5 to the nucleus, the enzyme usurps control over specific genes, ultimately causing hypertrophy, in which heart cells grow larger in size. Hypertrophy is a biological hallmark of heart failure. Some 5.8 million Americans suffer from heart... - mjc

Original Post from Mark Bruce: SciTech #ScienceSunday Digest 9 - 3rd Mar 2013 Brain-to-brain communication, artificial memristor brains, prosthetic implants, resetting brain circuits, flexible electronics, quantum algorithms, and others. 1. Connecting One Rat’s Brain to Another Via a Neuroprosthesis. For the first time ever researchers have demonstrated a direct brain-to-brain interface and communication between two animals, rats in this case http://www.nicolelislab.net/.... The rats together solved simple behavioural puzzles not only when occupying adjourning cages, but also when placed in different labs thousands of kilometers apart. Both animals were first trained to solve a simple problem, getting a reward when they successfully did so. Their brains were then connected via arrays of microelectrodes inserted into the area of the cortex that processes touch information; one animal served as the “encoder” animal and the other the “decoder”. Once the encoder successfully completed... - mjc
