International Human Microbe Program Looks Ahead
Lita Proctor, coordinator of the NIH-funded Human Micrometer Project (HMP) adds that the field is now mature enough to start having debates about the data, including whether the controversial claim that humans can be classified into three different "enterotypes" depending on their microbial profiles is valid. "At first we were just focused on methodology," Proctor told ScienceInsider, "but now we are having debates about different ideas and perspectives."
ヒトmicrobiome研究の資金拡充と企業誘致に期待感。国際コンソーシアムなどを受けて。NIH、EC、Enterome。生物多様性に、ヒトと微生物の相関を組込む。
NIHの"Human Micrometer Project"による、Microbiome研究への次年度投資継続については激しい議論が交されている模様。人間のMicrobiome解析には、大規模ハイスループットと、その処理の為の計算インフラを要する。ECは資金提供に前向き。
IHMC2012では、パテントのオファーが余りにも多くて辟易した。というツイートもあったけど、記事のEnteromeのCEOは、Microbiomeの発展には商業的可能性を達成する為の特許学術研究が重要と強調。オープン性を保てるかどうかは、機関やコミュニティの投資と後押し次第かな

Physicists may have discovered how the brain encodes memory - http://sciencefreaks.co.uk/?p=931 (about a PLoSCB paper http://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1002421)
Using molecular mechanics modeling and electrostatic profiling, we find that spatial dimensions and geometry of the extended CaMKII kinase domains precisely match those of MT hexagonal lattices. This suggests sets of six CaMKII kinase domains phosphorylate hexagonal MT lattice neighborhoods collectively, e.g. conveying synaptic information as ordered arrays of six “bits”, and thus “bytes”, with 64 to 5,281 possible bit states per CaMKII-MT byte.
Signaling and encoding in MTs and other cytoskeletal structures offer rapid, robust solid-state information processing which may reflect a general code for MT-based memory and information processing within neurons and other eukaryotic cells.

□ Microbial Annotation in the Cloud: CloVR and Ion Torrent on EC2
>> http://www.edgebio.com/microbial-annotation-cloud-clovr-and-ion-torrent
With Ion Torrent sequencing the focus is on providing these results quickly and efficiently to our customers. While there are many tools and options for microbial annotation, one particularly useful and interesting option is CloVR. Our experience using the CloVR-Microbe pipeline for annotation of Ion Torrent data.
About E Coli DH10B dataset, CloVR predicted a total of 4,883 genes in this dataset. Of the 4,883 predicted genes, 4,644 unique predictions were found and 2,644 predictions had an actual gene ID. The 2,000 other genes were predicted hypothetical proteins and did not have an actual gene ID to cross-reference in reference genbank files.

The Law on Free Access to Information of Public Character is crucial for the whole process and for the overall advancement of active citizen participation. Important factors include education of the population (related to bridging the digital divides) and the development of trust between all stakeholders.

Physical processes in cancer cell are disturbed due to suppression of oxidative metabolism in mitochodria (Warburg effect). Water ordering level in the cell is decreased, excitation of microtubule electric polar oscilations diminished, damping increased, and non-linear energy transformation shifted towards the linear region. Power and coherence of the generated electrodynamic field are reduced. Electromagnetic activity of healthy and cancer cells may display essential differences.
