Were excited about the third issue ofBioCoder, OReillys newsletter about therevolution in biology and biotechnology. In the first article of our new issue, Ryan Bethencourt asks the question What does Biotechnology Want? Playing withKevin Kellys ideasabout how technological development drives human development, Bethencourt asks about the directions in which biotechnology is driving us. Were looking for a new future with significant advances in agriculture, food, health, environmental protection, and more. That future will be ours if we choose to make it. Bethencourts argument (and Kellys) is that we cant not choose to make it. Yes, there are plenty of obstacles: the limits to our understanding of biology and genetics, the inadequate tools we have for doing research, the research institutions themselves, and even fear of the future. Well overcome these obstacles; indeed, if Bethencourt is right, and biology is our destiny, we have no choice but to overcome these obstacles. The only question is whether youre part of the revolution or not. In addition toWhat Biotechnology Wants, heres whats in the current issue: And of course, community announcements.Have suggestions? Send them in!To keep up-to-date, well be adding new announcements to the BioCoder home page. Were always looking for new material. … Continue reading →

PUBLIC RELEASE DATE: 15-Apr-2014 Contact: Dr. Mark Helm mhelm@uni-mainz.de 49-613-139-25731 Johannes Gutenberg Universitaet Mainz In recent years, it has become clear that the genetic code is far more complex than previously assumed. In addition to the well-known building blocks adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine, numerous chemical variations play an important role. Scientists now assume that the newly discovered nucleic acid modifications may form a second layer of information that extends and complements the genetic code. "The new discoveries are rather like umlauts that extend the standard alphabet," explained Professor Mark Helm of the Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Biochemistry - Therapeutic Life Sciences at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU). Helm is the coordinator of the priority program "Chemical Biology of Native Nucleic Acid Modifications", which the German Research Foundation (DFG) has now agreed to fund. This nationwide priority program will start in 2015 and, according to plans, will continue to receive DFG support for six years. "We are lucky enough in Germany to have some of the leading international researchers in all the core areas in this field and we thus intend to explore this subject with the help of a country-wide network," said Helm. Decoding the information in the … Continue reading →

University of Minnesota at Morris biology professor Dr. Paul Zachary Myers doesnt like young Republicans. In fact, he called them assholes. Thats what they are, Myers told me in a telephone interview on Friday. I think theyve amply demonstrated it is accurate. And he also doesnt like The Morris North Star, a conservative student publication that routinely draws the ire of liberals at the University Minnesota at Morris. I said it was a terrible, terrible paper and they university should not be endorsing it, Myers said. But attorneys for the student newspaper are alleging Myers broke the law when they say he wrote a blog post on his personal blog urging people to throw away the publication. The Alliance Defending Freedom has accused Myers, an associate professor in the schools biology program, of encouraging people to steal and throw away a copy of the November 22nd edition of the newspaper. That particular edition included a satire on affirmative action. The professor said the paper was mocking minority students. I would advocate the disposal of their flyers if the Ku Klux Klan started papering our campus, and likewise, the North Star has worn out its welcome and must go, the professor … Continue reading →
