Linking DNA evidence found on the body of his nine victims, police arrested the Wisconsin serial killer Saturday in the Wisconsin suburb of Franklin. http://www.huliq.com/6168/86002/wisconsin-serial-killer-arrested#comments Society Arrests DNA Serial Killer Wisconsin Tue, 08 Sep 2009 08:23:47 -0500 Gabriel Dorman 86002 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/85919/new-tool-proved-tracking-global-trade-wildlife Leather handbags and chunks of red meat: when wildlife specialists find these items in shipping containers, luggage, or local markets, they can now use newly published genetic sequences known as "DNA barcodes" to pinpoint the species of origin. http://www.huliq.com/11/85919/new-tool-proved-tracking-global-trade-wildlife#comments Science DNA Wildlife Sun, 06 Sep 2009 00:40:43 -0500 harminka 85919 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/85757/changes-dna-may-lead-diabetes Genes that regulate the energy consumption of cells have a different structure and expression in type II diabetics than they do in healthy people, according to a new study from the Swedish medical university Karolinska Institutet published in Cell Metabolism. The researchers believe that these epigenetic modifications might have a key part to play in the development of the disease. http://www.huliq.com/11/85757/changes-dna-may-lead-diabetes#comments Health diabetes DNA Wed, 02 Sep 2009 09:35:48 -0500 harminka 85757 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/85373/changes-dna-patterns-linked-prenatal-smoke-exposure A new study by researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California (USC) has found that the life-long effects of maternal smoking during pregnancy may occur through specific changes in DNA patterns. http://www.huliq.com/11/85373/changes-dna-patterns-linked-prenatal-smoke-exposure#comments Health DNA Smoking during Pregnancy Tue, 25 Aug 2009 07:04:32 -0500 harminka 85373 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/3257/85006/ibm-experiments-building-chips-dna Is this the first step toward a cyborg?
