Failures, a biological study. Don't know, really. Making the invisible visible. Making the invisible visible. April 14, 2011. There is an exhibition at Le Laboratoire. In Paris, which you MUST go and see if you are in Paris between now and the end of June. In fact, it might well be worth going to Paris just for that. The exhibition, entitled “La Négation du Temps”, pairs up Artist William Kentridge. With Scientist /Science Historian Peter Galison. And Musician Philip Miller. Gave us, over 20 years ago: &...

you are not alone: of metacosms and the microbiota: Extremophiles in the Belly Button Forest!

http://metacosms.blogspot.com/2013/04/extremophiles-in-belly-button-forest.html

You are not alone: of metacosms and the microbiota. Wednesday, April 3, 2013. Extremophiles in the Belly Button Forest! Not only are the microbiota in our navels proving to be unique from human to human (i.e., no enterotypes. Like in the gut), almost 1.5K new species have been discovered there! A recent study conducted by the Belly Button Biodiversity. Project (BBB) found over 2.5K species in all, some of which included extremophiles that typically live in ice caps, volcanos, or glaciers.

You are not alone: of metacosms and the microbiota. Friday, April 19, 2013. Yup, they exist. And you've probably got them. No worries, though- while you're training your dog, your dog's bacteria are training your immune system not to freak out. Read more about it on NPR! Wednesday, April 3, 2013. Extremophiles in the Belly Button Forest! Not only are the microbiota in our navels proving to be unique from human to human (i.e., no enterotypes.

From Lab Bench to Park Bench. Press and Professional Activities. The Microbiome In Sports Performance & Health. The Microbiome In Sports Performance & Health. June 8, 2013. By Carol Torgan, Ph.D. New research suggests the 10:1 microbial cell to human cell ratio is closer to a 1:1 ratio. Take a look at, “ Scientists bust myth that our bodies have more bacteria than human cells. News) and check out the comments. We each host several pounds of microbes, along with their 8 million genes. We discussed the rol...

Bridgecrest Bioinformatics: October 2012

http://bridgecrest.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html

Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Gene Names Are Broken. For some interesting ones, such as pokemon or sonic hedgehog - the approved gene name). Now, I'm not the first to notice this, and there is actually a committee called the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee. HGNC) to "assign unique gene symbols and names to over 33,500 human loci". Too bad some of these symbols are utterly useless. The symbols may be unique with respect to other gene symbols, but they are far from unique and distinguishing. Often times an...

Bridgecrest Bioinformatics: Fun with Bacteria

http://bridgecrest.blogspot.com/2012/10/fun-with-bacteria.html

Monday, October 15, 2012. Recently, I've taken an interest in metagenomics, which involves identifying micro-organisms directly from environmental samples (such as the ocean, soil, human gut, and even the belly button. I thought it would be an interesting exercise to plot the dissimilarities of these sequences. Sequences that are closer to each other would indicate species that have diverged from each other more recently. I was curious to see the relationships among these different bacteria speci...To pl...
