Size matters: just how big is BIG?: Quantifying realistic sample size requirements for human genome epidemiology. Background Despite earlier doubts, a string of recent successes indicates that if sample sizes are large enough, it is possible-both in theory and in pract......
The article focuses on big science research projects and the monetary spending on research. It calls the U.S. Manhattan Project which developed the first atomic weapons as a model for big science. It mentions brain research in Europe and the U.S. and reflects on the Human Genome Project ...
The age of big data is here: The world has created more data in the past two years than in the entire previous history of the human race. USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology researchers are dissecting treasure troves of information—from sources as diverse as brain scans ...
For the first time, scientists have sequenced the genome of the mysterious giant squid, finding answers about the creature's massive size. Here's the truth.
1. What could help conservation of the oceans? 1.什么可以帮助保护海洋? 2. Can we stop ourselves from aging? 2.我们可以阻止自己衰老吗? 3. Why can only some cells become other cells? 3.为什么只有一些细胞会变成其他细胞? 4. Why are some genomes so big and others very small?
Under drive theory, this curious fellow is feeding an innate urge. Lisa Pines/Getty Images To this day, exactly where curiosity originates continues to confound science. Psychologists have gotten a much better handle on classifying aspects of curiosity, though. The big question remains; does it...
Big Biological Data: Challenges and Opportunities In "Omics" era of the life sciences, data is presented in many forms, which represent the information at various levels of biological systems, including da... Y Li,L Chen - 《基因组蛋白质组与生物信息学报(英文版)》 被引量: 122发表: 2014年...
When a well-intentioned study led to a dubious DNA test for same-sex attraction, it exposed the need for safeguards on research in the age of big genetic data.
Try to make it through a day without using or hearing the word "evolution" and you'll see just how widespread this theory is. Evolution is fascinating because it attempts to answer one of the most basic human questions: Where did life, and human beings, come from? The theory of ...
Last year, researchers built a new human genome reference designed to capture the diversity among us.They called it the “pangenome,” as Antonio Regaladoreported. Generative AI has taken the world by storm.Will Douglas Heaven exploredsix big questionsthat will determine the future of the technol...
