Kurzweil : "From Kiel University, longevity gene that makes Hydra immortal also controls human aging

Kurzweil : "From Kiel University, longevity gene that makes Hydra immortal also controls human aging | Technos et humain | Scoop.it
Why is the polyp Hydra immortal ? Researchers from Kiel University decided to study it — and unexpectedly discovered a link toaging in humans […].

The tiny fresh water polyp Hydra does not show any signs of aging and is potentially immortal. There is a rather simple biological explanation for this : these animals exclusively reproduce by budding rather than by mating.

A prerequisite for such vegetative-only reproduction is that each polypcontains stem cells capable of continuous proliferation. Due to its immortality, Hydra has been the subject of many studies regarding aging processes for several years…

DIY and save : "Open-source revolution is driving down the cost of doing science… | Technos et humain | Scoop.it
The DIY movement has vaulted from the home to the research lab, and it’s driven by the same motives: saving tons of money and getting precisely what you want. It’s spawning a revolution, says Joshua Pearce.

Three converging forces, all open source, are behind this sea change, he explains in an article in the Sept. 13 issue of Science: software, 3D printers and microcontrollers. With these tools, researchers from all over the world are driving down the cost of doing science by making their own lab equipment…

Ignite : "Why I love my 3D Printer… | Technos et humain | Scoop.it
For inventors, transitioning from a great idea to a working prototype can be an arduous task. Lucky for us DIY types there now are low cost 3D printers available. They can turn your pencil sketch into a physical object in a matter of minutes. See what it takes to get started and how a 3D printer can bring out the creative genius in you.
