Insilico Medicine discovered a completely new drug for pulmonary fibrosis and brought it to the cusp of clinical trials in just 18 months and at a cost of less than $2.7 million, a fraction of what it normally takes.
Some genes don’t stay in the same place in the genome. Sometimes called jumping genes or transposons, this genetic material can hop around and rearrange itself | Genetics And Genomics.
Some genetic sequences don’t stay in the same place in the genome. Sometimes called jumping genes or transposons, this genetic material can hop around and rearrange itself to create new sequences. Some transposons even encode for their own enzymes, and these co-called transposases can edit the genome by cutting sequences from one place and pasting them to another.

Scientists based at the University of Oxford as part of the Faraday Institution CATMAT project researching next-generation cathode materials have made a significant advance in understanding oxygen-redox processes involved in lithium-rich cathode materials. The paper, published in Nature Energy, proposes strategies that offer potential routes to increase the energy density of lithium-ion batteries.
Fluid injection of perovskite semiconductors creates microwires to build different optoelectronic devices on a single silicon chip.

it may seem as if the entire prior history of the Universe led us to this pivotal moment of realization that we are the ‘brain cells’ of a larger planetary superorganism, progressively morphing into one Global Mind.”-Alex Vikoulov.
