Joaca de-a Dumnezeu: Apare o nouă „rasă” umană. Selecția embrionilor, în funcție de IQ și „optimizarea” partenerilor Această practică – unii au numit-o deja „optimizare genetică” – este controversată din punct de vedere etic și nu foarte eficientă în ceea ce privește rezultatele 👉 https://c.aparatorul.md/786hu 👈 #ecosistem #eliteitehnologice #factoriigenetici #GenomicPrediction #inteligența #niveldeinteligență #niveluldeinteligențăalcopiilor #optimizaregenetică #...

...and if you think my last post was just fear-mongering, consider this: "our increasing understanding of human #DNA could indeed lead to the identification of individual genetic predispositions." #GenomicPrediction #eugenics #IVF #discrimination #Gattaca https://buff.ly/3BMCKkF

NASA considers this 1997 science fiction film the most realistic ever made

In 1997, a groundbreaking science fiction film captured the imagination of audiences worldwide and earned the distinction of being hailed as the most realistic sci-fi movie ever made by NASA. This cinematic masterpiece, "Gattaca," directed by Andrew Niccol, continues to resonate with viewers and scientists alike for its eerily plausible portrayal of a future shaped by genetic engineering.

"...the advent of lab-grown eggs would allow couples to create embryos on an industrial scale – a thousand, or even a million – from which an elite selection could be handpicked." #eugenics #GenomicPrediction #SlipperySlope #IVF https://buff.ly/3UbzxBu

1/🧵 Interested about how others are structuring their genomic pipelines post-alignment/variant calling for #GenomicPrediction #GenomicSelection #RiskScoring. Do you maintain individual sample VCFs extracting the genotype for GEBV calculation or merge multiple into a single VCF for analysis? Or perhaps extract genotype calls per sample, storing in a DB, and then pulling from the DB for routine downstream analysis? 🧬🖥️

Oh, and obviously I've done a ton of work on #oats and #GenomeAnnotation and #GeneMapping, and looked at at bunch of different types of data from #PlantGenomes - this ended up in a Nature publication on the oat genome with me as one of the first authors: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-04732-y. #GenomicPrediction and #PlantBreeding are things I'm interested in. I've also dabbled in #DeepLearning, mainly #ConvNets for protein contact prediction and image segmentation.

The mosaic oat genome gives insights into a uniquely healthy cereal crop - Nature

Assembly of the hexaploid oat genome and its diploid and tetraploid relatives clarifies the evolutionary history of oat and allows mapping of genes for agronomic traits.
