The common fluorescent marker GFP traveled a long road to take its popular place in molecular biology today.
A Personal View of Genomics
Ricki Lewis | Nov 25, 2001 | 6 min read
It wasn't easy getting to the 4th International Meeting on Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Complex Genome Analysis held Oct. 10-15 at the Wenner-Gren Foundation in Stockholm. A week earlier, as flight cancellations continued in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, SwissAir had declared bankruptcy and an SAS jet had crashed in Milan, further disrupting schedules. So it was little surprise that several speakers had to phone in their talks. But not J. Craig Venter, president and chief sc

DNA Software Takes The Drudgery Out Of Molecular Biology
Ricki Lewis | Sep 15, 1991 | 8 min read
Author: RICKI LEWIS, p.23 It is expected to take some 15 years to determine the sequence of the 3 billion base pairs that make up the human genome--roughly 550,000 base pairs per day. An analytical task of this magnitude would have been unthinkable just a few years ago, but today's rapidly advancing computer technology has made the international effort to sequence the human genome possible.

The Rise of Biological Databases
Jennifer Fisher Wilson | Mar 17, 2002 | 6 min read
For this article, Jennifer Fisher Wilson interviewed Richard J. Roberts, chief U.S. editor of Nucleic Acids Research; Alex Bateman, group leader of Pfam at the Sanger Institute in Cambridge; and Peer Bork, head of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory's SMART team in Heidelberg, Germany, for SMART. Data from the Web of Science (ISI, Philadelphia) show that Hot Papers are cited 50 to 100 times more often than the average paper of the same type and age. All four Hot Papers were published Jan
The Alpha Project
Steve Bunk | Feb 23, 2003 | 7 min read
One day, genomic data will be translated into language that can be used to find new diagnostic and therapeutic targets for disease. Computers will mine DNA codes to build nanomachines, and "smart fabrics" will contain sensing capabilities modeled on living things. So says Shankar Shastry, chairman of electrical engineering and computer sciences at the University of California at Berkeley. "Bio is my bet on where the new set of glamour technologies will be," he predicts. But even the small step
The Brain Revolution and Ethics
Arthur Caplan | Oct 27, 2002 | 4 min read
Image: Anthony Canamucio No area of science is command-ing more ethical attention these days than genetics. No other area of science with potential application to plants, animals, and people can match the speed with which new knowledge is being created in genetics. But lurking over in the disciplinary corner--somewhat out of sight of the ethicists' gaze--are the neurosciences. Advances in radiology, psychiatry, neurology, neurosurgery, bioengineering, and psychology are furthering our understa
What Makes Science News Newsworthy?
Susan Fitzpatrick | Nov 21, 1999 | 6 min read
"Our results suggest that a genetic enhancement of mental and cognitive attributes such as intelligence and memory in mammals is feasible." This sentence, from a scientific paper published in the Sept. 2 issue of the international journal Nature by the laboratory of Joe Tsien of Princeton University,1 ignited a firestorm of publicity. The study, using genetically modified mice (I'll get to the actual scientific findings in a moment), was reported as news by major print and broadcast outlets. T
