Rather than talk about how good we are we would like to show you.Committed to improving our world, one project at a time, for stories that matter

James Crutchfield, Physics Professor at the University of California at Davis, and graduate students Christopher Ellison and John Mahoney, have developed the analogy of scientists as cryptologists who are trying to glean hidden information from Nature. As they explain, "Nature speaks for herself only through the data she willingly gives up." To build good models, scientists must use the correct "codebook" in order to decrypt the information hidden in observations and so decode the structure embedded in Nature's processes.

The immune system in plants has to be in a good condition in order to save plants from infection and diseases. There are two types of immunity in plants - the PAMP-triggered immunity and the effector-triggered immunity.

The non-hematological cancers can be cured through surgery, but this is not always safe, so before applying this method, make sure you are getting good treatment. The Trivedi Effect® is capable of killing the cancer cells through healing, promote the viability of healthy cells and reverse the effect of mutation.

It is a known fact, that cancer in any form is dreaded and when its brain cancer, the worry just doubles. However, the good news among this fear is that over the years a lot of brain cancer studies have been conducted across the globe that has led to various ways and means of not only detecting brain cancer, but also resolving it if identified in early stage.

Beat the neet is the one who have got very good potential in the preparation of students for free online medical PG entrance for NEET PG through their practice test series.

Lipase enzymes used in leather industry has achieved good results in degreasing of crepe, fur, leather, gelatin, and the like. Candida lipolytica lipase can reduce the oil content of the raw material of the spinning material from 10% to 0.5%, to meet the spinning requirements, and does not affect the fiber strength.

ScienceDaily (Jan. 20, 2011) - In birds as in people, female fertility declines with age. But some female birds can slow the ticking of their biological clocks by choosing the right mates, says a new study.

It sounds almost too good to be true: a cheap and simple drug that kills almost all cancers by switching off their "immortality". The drug, dichloroacetate (DCA), has already been used for years to treat rare metabolic disorders and so is known to be relatively safe.

So finally you are done with the 9-5 job and want to start your own business? Good idea. But hey do you know that 83% of the businesses fail in the first 5 years of the startup. But the question is why? What are the reasons that a startup or an Entrepreneur fail? Is it the surroundings? Or the idea itself.

"Social interactions require fast and efficient person perception, which is best achieved through the process of categorization. However, this process can produce pernicious outcomes, particularly in the case of stigma. This study used fMRI to investigate the neural correlates involved in forming both explicit ("Do you like or dislike this person?") and implicit ("Is this a male or female?") judgments of people possessing well-established stigmatized conditions (obesity, facial piercings, transsexuality, and unattractiveness), as well as normal controls. Participants also made post-scan disgust ratings on all the faces that they viewed during imaging. These ratings were subsequently examined (modeled linearly) in a parametric analysis. Regions of interest that emerged include areas previously demonstrated to respond to aversive and disgust-inducing material (amygdala and insula), as well as regions strongly associated with inhibition and control (anterior cingulate and lateral prefrontal cortex). Further, greater differences in activation were observed in the implicit condition for both the amygdala and prefrontal cortical regions in response to the most negatively perceived faces. Specifically, as subcortical responses (e.g., amygdala) increased, cortical responses (e.g., lateral PFC and anterior cingulate) also increased, indicating the possibility of inhibitory processing. These findings help elucidate the neural underpinnings of stigma"

I hope you've had a chance to watch Ray Kurzweil's presentation on yesterday's post. My interest was piqued by several things he mentioned. (I wish I could think about them all at the same time, but possessing that kind of capability will have to wait for some heavy duty augmentation.) One thing in particular got a good grasp on my attention. Ray spent about 2 seconds on the idea that technological advances in virtual reality and artificial intelligence will allow me to create several virtual personalities to perform the routine transactions made necessary by modern life.

Future Mars outposts or colonies may seem more distant than ever with NASA's exploration plans in flux, but the rocket technology that could someday propel a human mission to the red planet in as little as 40 days may already exist. A company founded by former NASA astronaut Franklin Chang-Diaz has been developing a new rocket engine that draws upon electric power and magnetic fields to channel superheated plasma out the back. That stream of plasma generates steady, efficient thrust that uses low amounts of propellant and builds up speed over time. "People have known for a long time, even back in the '50s, that electric propulsion would be needed for serious exploration of Mars," said Tim Glover, director of development at the Ad Astra Rocket Company.

People keep blaming the emergence of HIV on science, or at least medicine. For the longest time this came in the form of the claim that it was all due to contaminated polio vaccine. That turned out to be factually groundless. Now a group of scientists in the US thinks it may all be down to the greatest medical intervention of all: the eradication of smallpox.

"A more potentially useful observation about HIV and viruses comes from Jennifer Smith of the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill and colleagues in the 1 June issue of the Journal of Infectious Diseases, in which they report that men with HPV infection on their penis are nearly twice as likely to catch HIV than men without. They suspect the virus - which causes cervical cancer in women, and genital warts in men and women - attracts lymphocytes to the skin of the penis for HIV to infect, or creates micro-lesions where it can enter. That's good news, because we have a vaccine for HPV that appears to be completely safe. The team calculates that vaccinating men against HPV could prevent as many cases of HIV as more widely hailed circumcision efforts. It just goes to show that vaccination - already one of the biggest success stories of medicine - can continue to throw up unexpected benefits."

There was a time, when people knew nothing about farming or insecticides and the pesticides. People are now trying to go organic and finding natural ways and natural things, these days, so those who are all for the natural way of living, Natural farming is your thing.

This video is a pretty impressive showcase of graphics technology that is possible with the Unreal 4 engine TODAY. I seriously had to do a double take as well on a few of these! My brain was fooled a few times, for sure. It's a showcase of various technical demos and a tribute if you will to the sheer power of the Unreal 4 engine. Some of these were from 2015 or earlier! So imagine, what's going to be possible in 2016 and beyond! And with the advent of VR upon us, this only makes the future of gaming that much more exciting! What's everyone think of these? Is the photorealism of gaming graphics shown here going to be possible in every game over the next few years or is this just going to be for the top tier developers?
