Content Curation for Professional Development

Content Curation for Professional Development | this curious life | Scoop.it

"Over half a century ago, management guru Peter Drucker presented the concept of the knowledge worker. Compared to the manual laborer, ===> the knowledge worker focused on quality over quantity and worked more independently as problem solvers." <===

 

Over the many applications of Social Content Curation, Professional Development has been a strong trend. We keep observing it on Scoop.it but it's also been reported by Social Media influencers.

 

As more and more of us become Knowledge Worker, it should be no suprise that Content takes a growing importance on our Professional lives. So here's our take on it and why we announced this new integration with LinkedIn earlier today.

Researchers stumble upon male pill breakthrough - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Researchers stumble upon male pill breakthrough - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) | this curious life | Scoop.it
From www.abc.net.au - August 17, 2012 8:04 AM
Researchers stumble upon a compound that may finally lead to a birth control pill for men.

 

A lab which focuses on developing new drugs to undermine the molecular memory of cancer cells that tell them to divide found that those memory markers are distributed throughout the genome, the DNA that makes up a person's genetic code, and this has been likened to post-it notes that give cells instructions.

 

The team at the lab was experimenting with a compound developed in Dr Bradner's lab called JQ1, which was originally synthesised at Dana-Farber to block BRD4, a cancer-causing gene.

 

They discovered that it appears to target a protein specific to the testes called BRDT that instructs sperm to mature.

 

The compound does not appear to do damage to sperm-making cells, but they forget how to create mature sperm while under the influence of the drug.
