A handheld, at-home #water quality test created by a scientific start-up has received a $3 million grant. The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) will fund Northwestern project to develop and distribute water-quality test kits in the Chicago area. The #lead and #copper tests are based on #ROSALIND “#RNA output sensors activated by ligand induction” whereas #PFAS test will combine ROSALIND technology with new chemical technological breakthroughs. https://www.digitaljournal.com/tech-science/handheld-device-aims-to-allow-households-to-assess-drinking-water-safety-status/article

La Banca dei regolamenti internazionali e la #BancaInghilterra hanno collaborato con il settore privato all’esperimento della #valutadigitale della banca centrale. Il progetto #Rosalind, è stato guidato dal ramo britannico #BISInnovationHub #LondonCentre e dalla #BankofEngland. Tra i partecipanti e i consulenti figurano la #BancaCanada, la #BancacentraleUngheria, #Visa, #Mastercard e #Amazon. Anche le quattro banche centrali scandinave. #CBDS #BRI

What #Rosalind #Franklin truly contributed to the #discovery of #dna 's structure
Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double #helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

#OTD James #Michener, American #Pulitzer Prize-winning #Writer, is born.
He wrote over 40 books.
Today, you can visit the Michener Art #Museum & #Sculpture #Garden in his hometown of #Doylestown.
In #Chesapeake (1978), his character #Rosalind shared her #Garden design strategy:
"My principal #Flowers will be #Trees. Because when you #Plant trees, you're entitled to believe you'll live forever."

#Rosalind Based on replies from other people, the recommended Gibbs Sampling implementation seems quite flakey (i.e. it doesn't give the correct solution every time).
My hypothesis: if the repeated DNA motif is so well hidden that only Gibbs Sampling can detect it (as in the canned problems), it's probably not a biologically-relevant motif.
Disclaimer: I have my own stupid kmer-based repeat finding algorithm which has no hope of finding such repeated motifs.
Since I'm in the problem solving mood thanks to #AdventOfCode, I'm getting back onto #Rosalind to try to tick off the last few problems.
The problems I'm stuck on are ones that don't have properly-specified/explained problems. The one I just completed only had some pseudocode, but it required knowledge about hamming-distance scoring that wasn't explained, and was an odd algorithm that didn't fit properly in my head.

while I'm taking a quick break from the lab, I want to shout out some mad props to @qwazix and @tzo for all the work they've put into the #rosalind project - building @rosalind has been a whole bunch of fun for me, and I've learned a ton in the process, so if you've been looking for a project to keep your hands and mind busy for a fair bit and are interested in 3d printing and coreXY, you could do a lot worse than checking out the project site at htps://rosalind.xyz/ and their youtube channel for build videos.

#RosalindFranklin « s’éteint […] quatre ans
avant l’attribution du #PrixNobel à #Watson, #Crick et #Wilkins, qui ne lui rendent pas l’hommage qu’elle méritait lors du discours du #Nobel ! »
sfp.in2p3.fr/sfp-femmes/rosalind.pdf
Et après on dit qu’un #PrixNobel sert surtout à faire des porte-paroles… v’là la parole…
Et en plus « ce qui semble
bien établi, c’est que M. #Wilkins montrera à J. #Watson […] les très beaux clichés
de rayons X obtenus par #Rosalind, à son insu. »
