GREAT DENSITY. “Orbiting the ”outskirts” of a galaxy, globular clusters take several hundred million years to complete one orbit. Stars can reach a density of 100 to 1000 stars per cubic parsec in the center of a globular cluster. This is different from the density of stars around our Sun, which is estimated at about 0.14 stars per cubic parsec.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

ANCIENT STRUCTURES. “Globular clusters are the oldest objects in the Galaxy and were among the first clusters of stars.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

EXTENDED MIND. “Humans generate and mould their niche (ecological, cultural, and social), and this niche moulds the neural system through the extension of “body schemas” and extra-neural connections. This extreme integration between brain and culture is a key feature in cognitive archaeology.” The landscape imprints itself on the Mind, per William Wordsworth. https://lnkd.in/dhY9QJ5w View in LinkedIn

ANCIENT FORMATIONS. “Globular clusters are located in the galactic halo and contain more stars and are much older than the less dense open clusters found in the galactic disk. Globular clusters are common, with about 150 globular clusters currently known in the Milky Way.” https://lnkd.in/gDYri97U View in LinkedIn

CASCADE AND INTEGRATE. “As Boolean logic gates are widely used in electronic circuits to build digital devices, logic operations are encoded in gene regulatory networks that cells use to cascade and integrate multiple environmental and cellular signals and to respond accordingly.” https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms1516 View in LinkedIn

TOOLBOX. “This could make it possible to decipher complex living systems and produce reliable behaviour in organisms through diverse genetic circuit modules.” https://www.nature.com/articles/srep08090 View in LinkedIn

QED. “The results show that new genetic logic devices can be engineered predictably from novel native orthogonal biological control elements using quantitatively in-context characterized parts.” https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms1516 View in LinkedIn

BIOCIRCUITS. “The ultimate goal of synthetic biology is to connect biological logic gates together to execute complex biological tasks as in electrical circuits.” https://www.nature.com/articles/srep08090 View in LinkedIn

KIT BASED. “The circuits were assembled using a parts-based engineering approach of quantitative characterization, modelling, followed by construction and testing.” https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms1516 View in LinkedIn
