Gene therapy success story


Gene therapy success story 06/17/2005 07:13 PM

Gene therapy has proven to be promising, but the unexpected death of one test subject a couple of years ago put some testing on hold. A recent success may get the ball rolling again.

Now comes news from a German and Swiss collaboration that have successfully treated patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), an immune deficiency, by removing bone marrow-derived stem cells from the patients, inserting the working copy of the target gene, and then replacing the modified cells.

Good news, especially for one of the subjects who is able to stop taking antibiotics for his condition.

There's also news on Titan's volcanos, the effect of some types of pornography on sperm motility, as well as climate change.

Gnutella Developer Gene Kan Dies


Gnutella Developer Gene Kan Dies 07/08/2002 07:49 PM
According to CNET, Gnutella developer and evangelist Gene Kan has passed away on June 29th. Gene Kan and others started the original Gnutella portal, gnutella.wego.com, which was essential for helping people hook up to the network. Gene was also a founder of InfraSearch.com, an attempt to use decentralized technology for querying databases. InfraSearch was endorsed by Mosaic/Netscape co-creator Marc Andreessen. InfraSearch later became a part of Sun's JXTA project. Gene Kan's friend Yaroslav Faybishenko has written a few words about Gene's death. I tend to think that it matters what kind of difference we make in this world, so I encourage you to take a look at Gene's projects, articles and ideas.
