EDITING ENTIRE SEGMENTS. "Thus, on the protein level, entire segments can be inserted or deleted through the alternative splicing of protein-coding exons. As a result, it is expected that distinct protein isoforms will often exhibit different functional characteristics.” http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1097276512004844 View in LinkedIn

BIOHACKERS. “In 2014, Phil Kennedy hired a neurosurgeon in Belize to implant several electrodes in his brain and then insert a set of electronic components beneath his scalp. Back at home, Kennedy used this system to record his own brain signals in a months-long battery of experiments. His goal: Crack the neural code of human speech. Yes, it’s possible to communicate directly via your brain waves. But it’s excruciatingly slow. Other substitutes for speech get the job done faster.” http://www.wired.com/2016/01/phil-kennedy-mind-control-computer/ View in LinkedIn

SO ENDS this two weekend section on alternative splicing. This mechanism is critical in producing variation in phenotype, central to evolution itself, and is at the regulatory crossroads of cell machinery. When such a key mechanism goes wrong, it is of little surprise that it has dire consequences for the organism. There is much more to learn about alternative splicing, but it is sure to remain an exciting topic. View in LinkedIn

BRAIN-TO-TEXT research is about the detection of early thought and deciphering it into words. It carries the popular moniker of mind reading. With obvious medical applications, and law enforcement applications, it actually has almost limitless possibilities for both good and bad uses. Although sounding outlandish, it is here today.

FROM CHEMICALS TO BITS. “Essentially, the interface serves as a translator that switches from the electrochemical language that neurons use in human brains and the binary language composed of ones and zeroes used in information technology.” http://futurism.com/us-scientists-developing-brain-implants-can-connect-human-brain-digital-world/ View in LinkedIn
