New insights (for the BioProf) since 2012

It is clear that information and technology advance at accelerating rates, yet, still, it is funny how many things one once took for granted can now be explained readily.

things I didn't know when I was the bioprof! :)

for instance:

the whole story on wavelengths emitted by internet devices that interfere with melatonin function and thus sleep.

the ways all the molecular genetic details in a cell can be simplified into one big picture concept, genomic integrity, for the public interest.

the many ways eggs can be used to exemplify biochemical processes (and development, of course). Well, I already knew this back when, but only did the osmosis expts with eggs for my 9ths...

at least, I realized that both men and women have the same number of ribs long before being BioProf… (but much later than you would expect - that's the power of societal brainwashing! :)

anyway, hoping others might join in, to include the things they now believe to understand, but didn't 'before' - come on!

own it!
