Memory Can Be Improved With Deep Brain Stimulation

Have you ever thought about how many moments you have lived in your life and have you forgotten? How many things do you overlook every day? Have you ever wondered why? The truth is that our memory is very fragile and needs to be "recharged". One study published in Nature Communications showed a new scientific approach that can help our memory (and hence brain activity) with deep brain stimulation. Read the full article

Ancestry DNA Discovery on Genetic Communities Feature on Nature Communications

What would you do if you came to know from your DNA that you are not just Irish, but connected to Ulster Irish who came in droves to America or came from an African American group in Maryland who left rural areas to put roots in cities or maybe the heir of French who brought the French culture and language to Louisiana. What would you do if you can see the places, people, and migration paths in your family history?

Genetics has been used to understand human migration and history. But, due to the insufficient samples or methods, few of these have thrown light into recent human history over the last several hundred years. With years of hard work and applying the same statistics, Ancestry developed a novel scientific methodology that looks at how particular groups of people are related or connected through their DNA or can get the answers the places ancestors called home, the migration paths they followed to get there enabling genetics to expose the history in the current time-period than ever before.

Today, our work on searching finer grain population structure was issued in Nature Communications, and over 770 thousand genomes exposed the post-colonial population organization of North America. The new research holds knowledge on the powerful combination of family history and genetic data unique to Ancestry to surface a more solid and detailed genetic portrait of how our current ancestors responded to historical forces, like war, politics, famine, immigration, and more.

Allocation of Ancestral birth locations in North America connected with IBD clusters

These points show lineage birth locations that are asymmetrically assigned to each cluster. The birth location with OR>x within mentioned generations yz are plotted, in which the limits x, y, x   are chosen separately per cluster to imagine better the cluster’s historical geographic concentration, proper distribution of ancestral birth locations in America, Europe, and worldwide are given in figures 18.20. For every cluster, points are separately scaled by the number of lineage annotations. You can check figure 2 and table 1 for more details. You need to remember that clusters are divided into two maps only for clarity.

How does Science work?

First, you need to create a network of genetically identified relationships based on DNA alone- amongst over 7,00,000 individuals who gave consent to research. Using Network analysis techniques, We recognized clusters of individuals in the network: a group of individuals who are somewhat more associated with one another than individuals outside their cluster. From genetic data, Ancestry can quickly identify novel population structures in different groups of individuals within a greater population.

Having such a bigger genetic dataset allows Ancestry to uncover these communities or clusters that would not have other ways been possible. We then add circumstances to these clusters of genetic communities to family tree data to know the origins of these groups of people and expose the groups' migration patterns and ancestries. Ancestry exposed the historical explanations for the patterns noted in the genetics. For example, a particular group of individuals matched to descendants of French Canadian immigrants to America and Scandinavian, and Ancestry have identified groups of family of settlers such as the individuals with Ancestry in New Mexico and Appalachians who is veteran cultural and geographic isolation within America. The data also portrayed settlements and movements across north-south and east-west incline within America and notably matches’ known history.

Genealogical data by generation track migration of French Canadians to the America and Origins of Acadians in Atlantic Canada. Map locations are plotted if OR> 10 within the stated range of lineage generations. Points are mounted by the number of lineage annotations, individually for each of the six maps. Note that not all existing political borders are shown.

What does this research mean to me?

The research has exciting consequences for current and capable future customers of Ancestry DNA. Remember that this research identified genetic communities and clusters of individuals and their histories, where their ancestors lived, where they migrated from, their names, and many more. It simply signifies that we can identify the genetic communities that DNA belongs to. Also, we use an individual's DNA to give them a highly detailed historical portrait of the lives of some of their forefathers or ancestors. For example, we can tell someone where their ancestors might have lived and moved throughout their lives and capable historical reasons for those migrations, which happened in the last several hundred years. All this was possible by the contributions of the researchers who have done deep research on their family trees, taken the Ancestry DNA test, and decided to participate in scientific research. Ancestry is excited to share their research or findings with you in a personalized experience in the coming months.

New blood cancer treatment works by selectively interfering with cancer cell signalling -#bloodcancer #hematology #naturecommunications “The research team led by Luc Berthiaume, cell biology professor in the Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry, spent four years working to understand how the compound PCLX-001 targets enzymes that perform myristoylation, a cellular process in which the fatty acid myristate modifies proteins so they can move to membranes and become part of the cell signalling system. "The enzymes that transfer myristate onto proteins are overexpressed in some cancer cells, meaning there's more of those enzymes, so they have long been thought of as a logical target for cancer treatment," said Berthiaume, who is also chief scientific officer and co-founder of Pacylex Pharmaceuticals, the U of A spinoff company developing the drug. "Until now no one has done a thorough analysis of this hypothesis," Berthiaume said. "We actually found that several types of cancer cells have fewer of these enzymes, making them seemingly easier to kill with our lead drug." #msl #medicalscienceliaison https://www.instagram.com/p/CGpKaQ9jxgT/?igshid=1rv4i85d03946

201 milioni di anni fà i livelli di CO2 erano simili agli attuali

I livelli odierni CO2 simili a quelli dell'estinzione di massa del Triassico. Ricerca dell'Università di Padova li compara quelli della magma area 'Camp', scenario dei più vasti eventi vulcanici della storia della Terra, circa 201 milioni di anni fa, quando i vulcani eruttarono nello stesso periodo temporale, dalla Francia alla Bolivia, su un'area complessiva grande come tutta l'Europa.

Circa 200 milioni di anni fa, a fine Triassico ci fu una gigantesca attività vulcanica sulla Terra con eruzioni contemporanee, dalla Francia alla Bolivia, su un'area complessiva grande come tutta l'Europa. E si verificò un'estinzione di massa. Ebbene, i valori di CO2 presenti nella atmosfera allora sono pericolosamente simili a quelli attuali. Il dato emerge da una ricerca, pubblicata su Nature Communications, svolto da un team internazionale di ricerca coordinato da Manfredo Capriolo, del Dipartimento di Geoscienze dell'Università di Padova, che ha studiato il magma del Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (Camp). Dalla ricerca è emerso come la quantità di CO2 emessa da un singolo periodo eruttivo sia pari allo scenario di emissioni antropogeniche previste per il XXI secolo dall'Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (Ipcc) dell'Onu. In questa ipotesi si avrebbe un incremento della temperatura globale di circa 2 gradi e una grave acidificazione degli oceani. Questo paragone suggerisce che i cambiamenti climatici e ambientali di fine Triassico, guidati da emissioni di CO2 e che portarono a un'estinzione di massa, siano ipotizzabili negli esiti finali in un immediato futuro. Lo studio si concentra sulla Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (Camp), scoperta e oggetto di studio negli ultimi venti anni dei ricercatori dell'Università di Padova, e sull'analisi dei magmi del Triassico particolarmente ricchi di CO2. I magmi di questa zona, così come quelli di ogni altra provincia magmatica, hanno una co

mposizione chimica e isotopica caratteristica, che li rende peculiari e distinguibili dagli altri, come se avessero una propria "firma geochimica". La Camp è stata scenario dei più vasti eventi vulcanici della storia della Terra, circa 201 milioni di anni fa, con vulcani che hanno eruttato nello stesso periodo temporale, dalla Francia alla Bolivia, su un'area complessiva grande come tutta l'Europa. Questo vulcanismo, collocato alla fine del periodo Triassico, è avvenuto contemporaneamente a una delle cinque estinzioni di massa più devastanti nella storia della Terra. La ricerca ha dimostrato la presenza nei magmi della Camp di ingenti quantità di CO2 imprigionate in minuscole inclusioni di vetro vulcanico, che hanno preservato le originarie bolle gassose. I campioni studiati, provenienti da Nord America (Stati Uniti e Canada orientali), Marocco (Alto Atlante) e Portogallo (Algarve), mostrano che questi magmi sono particolarmente ricchi in CO2 e che quindi l'emissione di questo gas serra può aver causato l'estinzione di massa.
