Other groups have found the transition from mouse to human cells difficult. One reason: standard mouse embryonic stem (ES) and ips cells are aïve, unlike standard human ES and ips cells,

more responsive to attempts to differentiate into any number of mature cells. But Hanna had created some of the first naïve human ES cells in a Nature study published in 2013.

One key difference between the mouse and human work: in human cells, a protein called SOX17 performed critical tasks that in mice are performed by SOX2. t will be interesting to test in the future a variety of conditions

The external component consists of the microphones, sound processor and batteries, while the implant has the electronics that send the stimulation pulses.

but instead of printing with plastics, it deploys edible ingredients squeezed out of stainless steel capsules:""It's the same technology,

pointing out that at least in the initial stage the printer will be targeted mostly at professional kitchen users,

and that it promotes healthy eating by requiring fresh ingredients prepared before printing. Nevertheless, the company is working with major food manufacturers to create prepackaged plastic capsules that can just be loaded into the machine to make food,

##Not only did transplanted these cells survive in the mouse brain they showed functional properties similar to those of native cells##says senior author Andrew S. Yoo assistant professor of developmental biology at the Washington University School of medicine in St louis.##These cells

And we found the human transplanted cells also connected to these distant targets in the mouse brain.

The research involved adult human skin cells rather than more commonly studied mouse cells or even human cells at an earlier stage of development.

When transplanted into the mouse brain the converted cells showed morphological and functional properties similar to native neurons.

Next they tested the idea in a mouse model of the bone infection osteomyelitis. Antibiotic-resistant small colony variant S. aureus is the cause of chronic and difficult to treat osteomyelitis and also of lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF.

#Scientists use light to make mice asocial California Institute of technology rightoriginal Studyposted by Jessica Stoller-Conrad-Caltech on September 19 2014scientists have discovered antagonistic neuron populations in the mouse amygdala that control

That is when high-intensity light was used the mice became aggressive in the presence of an intruder mouse.

When the neurons associated with asocial behavior were turned on the mouse began self-grooming behaviors such as paw licking

For example if a lone mouse began spontaneously self-grooming the researchers could halt this behavior through the optogenetic activation of the social neurons.

and the activation stopped the mouse would return to its self-grooming behavior. Surprisingly these two groups of neurons appear to interfere with each other s function:

#Algorithms could adjust screens to your vision University of California Berkeley Original Studyposted by Sarah Yang-Berkeley on August 15 2014.

Researchers are developing vision-correcting displays for computer monitors that would let people see text and images clearly without their glasses or contact lenses.

The setup adds a printed pinhole screen sandwiched between two layers of clear plastic to an ipod display to enhance image sharpness.

when the intended user looks at the screen the image will appear sharp to that particular viewersays Barsky. ut

This latest approach improves upon earlier versions of vision-correcting displays that resulted in low-contrast images.

The new display combines light field display optics with novel algorithms. Huang now a software engineer at Microsoft corp. in Seattle notes that the research prototype could easily be developed into a thin screen protector

and that continued improvements in eye-tracking technology would make it easier for the displays to adapt to the position of the user s head position. n the future we also hope to extend this application to multi-way correction on a shared display

so users with different visual problems can view the same screen and see a sharp imagesays Huang.
