In the book by Daniel Keyes, scientists use experimental surgery—first tested on a mouse named Algernon—to dramatically boost the intelligence of a mentally retarded janitor named Charlie Gordon. Now M.I.T. scientists report in <I>Proceedings of the National Academy of the Sciences USA</I> that they ameliorated brain damage in mice caused by a genetic disorder known as fragile X syndrome by blocking an enzyme involved in cellular development.</div></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/C691AD62-89D3-4AAB-981C-6DC676784006.gif" alt="Scientific American Mind Image: laboratory mouse" /><br /></div></div></div><br><div style="margin-bottom: 40px;">Tags: <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/science/" rel="tag">science</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/research/" rel="tag">research</a></div>http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?chanID=sa017&ref=feedburner&articleId=6901F70B-E7F2-99DF-3648F0789D1EC063Fri, 29 Jun 2007 04:01:53 GMThttp://clipmarks.com/clipmark/17C8D7E9-5A1F-4256-97A5-C00290E27CF1/<b>clipped by:</b> <a href="http://clipmarks.com/clipper/kidora/">kidora</a><br><b>clipper's remarks:</b> A really cool art instillation by Brian Eno who's work consists of a bank of screens displaying constantly evolving images and sounds, all controlled by massive Apple computers. <br><div border="2" style="margin-top: 10px; border:#000000 1px solid;" width="90%"><div style="background-color:#000000"><div align="center" width="100%" style="padding:4px;margin-bottom:4px;background-color:#666666;overflow:hidden;"><span style="color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;">Clip Source: <a style="color:#FFFFFF;" href="http://blog.wired.com/monkeybites/2007/06/an_army_of_macs.html" title="http://blog.wired.com/monkeybites/2007/06/an_army_of_macs.html">blog.wired.com</a></span></div><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/4213C04F-276E-487C-934F-E3FD98669422.jpg" alt="Eno1" /><br /></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/C551B5BF-1AA2-4E06-934A-B2E16497F75B.jpg" alt="Eno7" /><br /></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/AFD487E2-766E-4284-A636-F93124A60C1E.jpg" alt="Eno2" /><br /></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/CB9567A2-30E6-44BF-AE02-919B94E3BF83.jpg" alt="Eno3" /><br /></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/0862E51F-F73C-4719-B0F0-3CE2785B65CD.jpg" alt="Eno4" /><br /></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/3A1F875B-05E6-4D65-ADD9-7FFA2793C6AA.jpg" alt="Eno5" /><br /></div><hr size="2" color="#666666" /><div style="padding: 10px;"><img src="http://clipmarks.com/image_cache/kidora/512/B262D9C5-D080-45A3-9805-09863ED972F6.jpg" alt="Eno6" /><br /></div></div></div><br><div style="margin-bottom: 40px;">Tags: <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/apple/" rel="tag">apple</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/photography/" rel="tag">photography</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/art/" rel="tag">art</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/electronics/" rel="tag">electronics</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/mac/" rel="tag">mac</a>, <a href="http://clipmarks.com/tags/design/" rel="tag">design</a></div>http://blog.wired.com/monkeybites/2007/06/an_army_of_macs.htmlWed, 20 Jun 2007 17:28:53 GMT
