GE’s Brand New 100W Equivalent LED Bulb Illuminates the Future of Lighting May 7, 2012 Engineers at GE’s NELA Park in East Cleveland, Ohio, have spent a century building better light bulbs. When NELA opened in 1911, it became the world’s first industrial park, a distinction that earned it a place on the National Register of Historic Places. But now a new kind of history is taking place at NELA, the kind that will soon dispatch the incandescent light bulb down the same road traveled by the LP and the VCR. “This is an evolution,” says Glenn Kuenzler, a lighting engineer at NELA. He and his team of researchers are making sure that the GE bulb, whose legacy stretches back to Edison, is fit to survive.

Researchers produce first complete computer model of an organism July 20, 2012 By Max McClure

(Phys.org) -- In a breakthrough effort for computational biology, the world's first complete computer model of an organism has been completed, Stanford researchers reported in the journal Cell.

team led by Stanford bioengineering Professor Markus Covert used data from more than 900 scientific papers to account for every molecular interaction that takes place in the life cycle of Mycoplasma genitalium – the world's smallest free-living bacterium.
