Human Genetics

the study of human genetics is interesting like the story about tracing the gene pool through the ages to approximate homo sapiens entered the united states about 20,000 years ago. Also i found the information about NASA experiment finding life can begin in space just like it started here.but the best laugh of all came from Spontaneous Creation!

Prokaryotes and Archaea

well these are not like any bacteria i ever heard of before they are crazy! these tumble backwards and change sex through mutation or while mating "gross". OK so i wonder how did 56% of 1738 of the genes in Archaea remain unknown to science after all these years? But it is wonderful that we have found a new and different life form right here on earth!

PBS Evolution

what a stroke of luck! the HMS beagle was the perfect opportunity at the perfect time for young Darwin to launch his career. As the ships naturalist he got the chance of a lifetime to explore such fantastic biological wonders as the Galapagos Islands and the whole of the south pacific! i loved the videos from PBS and felt a real connection to Darwin as a young naturalist exploring the world for science. the sheer amount of specimens collected and sent back to England is remarkable. I think this was his greatest adventure which led to his groundbreaking theory. The origin of species.

Darwinism

Darwin strikes me as the kind of science pioneer that introduces us to an idea that's ground breaking. Darwin's documentation of vast amounts of empirical data and the first plausible theory of natural selection set the course of modern evolution.Darwin's ideas were years ahead of his contemporaries. I feel there is some truth to natural selection "the survival of the fittest".If combined with modern research on genetics it could still help formulate new ideas on evolution. i do not agree that all species evolved randomly but agree with Lamarck that organisms adapt and change to their environment. I think it is sometimes or frequently a rapid onset of changes.that make the shift in the species.I would like to see a new study on that!

EVO Devo

evolution is a truly developmental science that suprises us with amazing dicoveries that stretch the mind into new paradigms of theory. Now we can play god in many new ways like recreating wooly mammoths to fill amusement parks or regenerate organs using stem cells and animal hosts. this is evodevo on the cutting edge of todays technology. I am excited about the reintroduction of Grizzly bears into americas wilderness! but i also have questions. like,where are the ethical guidelines for us to follow?
how do we reap the benefits for mankind without becoming frankenstein?
which of us determines what is good science and what is not?

virtual brain

The deeper we delve into AI the more we come to realize the miracle that is the human brain. Even if we had the technology, i have a strange theory about building the perfect robot and how some spirit will find and inhabit this new life form. For without the spark of Life our organic bodies are also merely a shell.I noticed the Cortical Cortex simulation fired up looks like an Alex Grey painting. Awesome!
