Universal Genetic Engineering Insanity (HD) - Video

After that long turkey-induced sleep, heres to some good science. This weeks picks includes an emotional piece about a dad, synthetic biology as the sci-fi extension of genetic engineering, astronomy in China and much much more (including one Thanksgiving-themed post).

Dig in!

Science is more than lab work and journals but we tend to forget this sometimes. Pete Etchells in his SciLogs.com blog, Counterbalanced, pens a wonderful wonderful piece about his father, who has been his inspiration to pursue a career in research. Petes blog post is moving and is a must-read because it showcases another aspect of science: humanity.

Why I hate neurons So why did my Dad also inspire an irrational hatred of neurons? Because fourteen years ago today, on a freezing, dark, miserable day in November, my Dad died, two years after being diagnosed with a form of Motor Neuron Disease (MND) called Progressive Muscular Atrophy.

In BuzzFeed this week, Allison McCann has a delightful feature about synthetic biology which she describes as the science fiction-like branch of genetic engineering. Allison goes on to give a good account of the field and the challenges synthetic biologists face as they go all mad scientists on us.

How To Code A Life Synthetic biology the science fiction-like branch of genetic engineering hopes to automate programs used to engineer organisms that could produce better drugs and cleaner fuels. But can open-source science really succeed? Synthetic biologists write code. But when their code is compiled, it doesnt become an app. It becomes, or at least changes, life.

Nadia Drake explores Chinas ambitions in the field of astronomy while on a visit to the country. Writing in the December issue of Science News, Nadia dwells a little bit into Chinas impressive beginnings in the field and how it suddenly all went bad. Now, China is playing catch up but with proper backing, it looks set to push the frontiers of astronomy even further relatively soon. An exceptional #longread.

Onward and Skyward High in Beijings sky, the August sun glows red by midafternoon, a star struggling to illuminate Chinas crowded capital from above the dust and pollution. Im in the city along with 3,200 astronomers for the International Astronomical Unions two-week General Assembly meeting. Its the first time the IAU has convened the assembly in China, an important milestone for a country attempting to reclaim its former astronomical significance.

Jon Tennant (interviewed this week on this blog), blogging in his European Geosciences Union blog, Green Tea and Velociraptor, has an excellent post about geoscience in the news. Jon dissects a recent paper which not only points out the negatives of the medias portrayal of geoscience but also suggests future actions that can be both journalists and researchers.
