...research team lead by scientists at the Broad Institute has developed a new tool that uses unique genetic patterns to link specific illnesses with potential treatments...
...said Justin Lamb, the lead author of the Science paper and a senior scientist in the Broad Institute’s Cancer program. “The philosophy is also very much the same as a search engine like Google. Our program is free, and it is a tool that can allow scientists to generate information cheaply and fast...
Engineers went easy on the buttons, which lets you control most functions of this 7-megapixel beauty through its 3-in. touch screen. After you've shot some pictures, play them back in an animated musical slide show. Finger-paint all over a photo with the drawing tool, and then save a copy, doodles and all. Your choice of finish is between silver and--get this--candy-apple red. PRICE...
...built-in wi-fi that comes with a free yearlong subscription to T-Mobile's wireless service that's suitable for uploading snapshots over lattes at Starbucks. It also takes time-lapse photos that can be combined into a movie. And it has an easy-to-use stop-motion tool for making Wallace & Gromit--style Claymation. PRICE...
Still, the principle of gene-by-gene comparison remainsa powerful one, and just a year ago geneticists got hold of a long-awaited tool for making those comparisons in bulk. Although the news was largely overshadowed by the impact of Hurricane Katrina, which hit the same week, the publication of a rough draft of the chimp genome in the journal Nature immediately told scientists several important things. First, they learned that overall, the sequences of base pairs that make up both species' genomes differ by 1.23%--a ringing confirmation of the 1970s estimates--and that the most striking divergence...
