This will reignite interest in mandriva...
I o not know why people always go for the less polished distros, like ubuntu, over something supported nad stable like mandriva.
Dude, I have no idea what you are bitching about.
1. Gene expression is one of the most active areas of research, pharmacagenomics is actively being researched.
Have you even heard of Gleevec? Cures people with a specific mutation?
2. It is WAY easier/cheaper/more standard to measure gene expression than to sequence them.
3. How tensegrity plays into signal transduction / gene expression is still unknown.
4. The ECM is an active area of research and drug targets for cancerand clotting.....And if you say tenesgrity, or porosity again, I shall be forced to apply sufficent pressure to your crainial area as to force it to rupture.
Soft matter people..... just want to bitch.
Actually, using this metric, we would be even further away from chimps. The old 98% metric (human to chimps) is based on the same old 99.9% metric... both of which were based on drafts lacking these regions.
If you included these repetitive elements, then we become even more genetically distant from chimps.
Decreasing the (human is % chimp) value will greatly please the red state creationists, most of which have a extra chromosome anyway, making them even more genetically distant from chimps by this measure.
Not trying to be mean. Christian fundementists are cute.... clutching thier big gulps to their ample folds, furrowing their brows in a pitiful attempt to understand.
This may get more resistance from the schools than the private sectors. All universities make you sign away EVERY possible disovery you make, as a student or professor, and they are more inflexible about this than many companies.
Mike Eisen told me that he imbeds GPL code into his code so that it cannot be exclusively owned by UC.
Universities have realized the cash cow biotech really is. Look at university of Madison wisconsin. They still make money on "vitamin D milk".
This actually is a continuing trend. Many of the major journals in the biological sciences have been raising their rates for many years, so as that libraries can only afford to pruchase a subset of them. This ends up with the results of publicly funded research only being available to schools with adequate funding, draaging down the entire fields collaborative efforts.
All of this is not fully lost on the field A few heavywieghts have called for a blacklist of journals and companies that do not make their information available. Sadly, prestige is the main driving factor for researchers, fo the microsofts of the scientific community ( Cell, Science, Nature) still can gouge us all.
In response,Kirschner, varmus and others have set up a few public e-journals later this year) to be elite journals that are available to all. Whether this actualy works is another story.
