...Thursday, presidential science adviser Neil Lane hailed it as "a very significant achievement." That was an understatement. Under the leadership of its brash, brilliant president, Craig Venter, Celera had beaten a big-budget, government-funded program in the race to sequence the human genome--to spell out the molecular "letters" that make up the genetic code embedded...
...human brain is the most complex object in the known universe, with billions of chattering neurons connected by trillions of synapses. No scientific problem compares to it. (The Human Genome Project, which is trying to read a long molecular sentence composed of billions of letters, is simple by comparison.) Cognitive neuroscience is arming so many brilliant minds with such high technology that it would be foolish to predict that we will never understand how the brain gives rise to the mind. But the problem is so hard that it would be just as foolish to predict that we will...
Richard Dearborn, a post-doctoral fellow and head TF for Biological Sciences 1: " Introductory Genetics, Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology," said the ruling had his full support...
...thriller does, this one starts with a thrill: a helicopter smashes into the face of the Statue of Liberty. That brings on an architectural restorer; her fiance, an N.Y.P.D. detective; and her former lover, a research neurologist who can repair brain damage and bad attitudes with a computer and molecular smart bombs. An ingenious bio-tech love triangle ensues, as does the hunt for a sadistic killer with an acetylene torch. Then it's back to the top of Lady Liberty for the climax, a breakneck update of the finale to Hitchcock's 1942 tingler, Saboteur...
