Scientists Lift Veil of Secrecy Concerning Functions of Human Genome Parts
“A group of researchers led by MIT Professor Jonathan Weissman has managed to make another scientific great leap forward by deciphering what each part of human DNA is responsible for in the working of a cell.” by Tim Korso via sputniknews image: pixabay The human DNA was deciphered years ago. However, biologists have remained unaware of what specific parts of … Continue reading

Ancient Virus Could Have Led To Human Thinking
We all have consciousness, but explaining why and how our thoughts occur has always been a scientific mystery An ancient virus could be responsible for human consciousness, giving you the ability to think for yourself. New research has linked a human gene responsible for conscious thought to a virus that was spread in the early days of humanity. Two papers published … Continue reading
$100 Million Google Health Project; Seeks 10,000 Volunteers For Invasive Screening
Predictive medicine – or “precision health” as it is sometimes known – is a trend in healthcare that is growing exponentially. Perhaps the greatest indication to date that this is slated to be the future of disease prevention and patient care is a massive new investment by tech behemoth and king of the algorithm, Google. However, in order to continue … Continue reading
If Humans Were to Go Extinct, Should the Species Be Revived?
If humans were to go extinct, would it be ethical to revive the species, to allow us to live once more on this blue planet? It’s a tough call, but maybe not, according to a panel of five experts who debated “de-extinction” during the annual Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York … Continue reading
Human Brain Generates Fructose
Fructose, a form of sugar linked to obesity and diabetes, is converted in the human brain from glucose, according to a new Yale study. The finding raises questions about fructose’s effects on the brain and eating behavior. The study was published on Feb. 23 by JCI Insight. Fructose is a simple sugar found in fruits, vegetables, table sugar, and many … Continue reading
Caveman DNA ‘Inherited by Inuit People Help them Survive the Arctic cold’
INUIT people living in Greenland may have inherited caveman genes that helped an extinct type of human survive the last Ice Age. New evidence suggests the Inuits are protected against the Arctic cold by DNA from Denisovans, a human sub-species that populated Siberia about 40,000 years ago. The discovery is a further indication of interbreeding long ago between the ancestors … Continue reading
One Simple Algorithm Could Explain Human Intelligence
A simple algorithm could explain the inner workings of human intelligence, and it could one day be encoded into artificial intelligence (AI) systems, researchers suggest. It’s a mind-bending idea: that all the complex thoughts running through our heads are the product of a set of definable sums. But scientists have identified clear patterns in the brains of mice and hamsters, … Continue reading
Stopping Killer Robots at the Source (Code)
Researchers suggest coding artificial intelligence in such a way that robots don’t make a distinction between human and machine. Not too long ago, a powerful collection of scientists, industry leaders and NGOs launched the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots, an activist group dedicated to preventing the development of lethal autonomous weapons systems. Among those that signed up for the cause: … Continue reading
