This blog has become a sort of personal-cum-public diary. As for its contents, some are meant for me and my friends and relatives; others are for the public. This blog will have only positive, ennobling, elevating, encouraging and uplifting thoughts/ideas/materials. Whoever visits should feel happy and should be able to pick up some good ideas/thoughts/links. In short, "NOTHING NEGATIVE" is my motto.(Grateful thanks to Jon Sullivan and Public-Domain-Photos.com for the background photo)
Happy New Year 2021
WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY, HEALTHY,
PROSPEROUS AND PURPOSEFUL

"We are not making science for science. We are making science for the benefit of humanity."
- Françoise Barré-Sinoussi
The discovery of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) was made remarkably quickly by researchers Françoise Barré-Sinoussi and Luc Montagnier, who were awarded the 2008 Medicine Prize for their work.
In late 1982, they were alerted to an alarming epidemic which they decided to investigate. By January 1983, they had discovered HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
They published their findings in the journal Science in May 1983; in 1985 the first commercial blood test to detect HIV became available.
This discovery has been crucial in radically improving treatment methods for people living with HIV.
At each end of our chromosomes lies a protective "cap" called a telomere – its function was discovered by Nobel Laureates Elizabeth Blackburn and Jack Szostak.
Blackburn used early DNA-sequencing techniques to show that telomeres were made up of short, repeated pieces of DNA. She and Szostak performed an experiment showing that telomeres from one species, a pond-dwelling single-celled organism called tetrahymena, could protect DNA molecules, or mini-chromosomes, from a very distant organism, yeast (see figure).
As telomere DNA from one organism, tetrahymena, protected chromosomes in an entirely different one, yeast, this demonstrated the existence of a previously unrecognised fundamental mechanism. Later on, it became evident that telomere DNA with its characteristic sequence is present in most plants and animals, from amoeba to humans.
Elizabeth Blackburn and Jack Szostak were the first to show that the unique DNA sequence contained in the telomeres serves to protect the chromosomes. They were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2009 alongside Carol Greider.
This fabric captures renewable solar energy, brings shade to urban areas and lights the way at night! It's flexible, portable and brings solar power to any street, park or parking lot. The fabric contains a photovoltaic sheet, conductive copper-based ink and bright LED strips, helping to fight the urban heat island effect in cities by keeping temps cool! Anai Green's sustainable design won her the Women4Climate tech challenge this year, and for good reason. We want to see this everywhere!
