Both the professional athlete and the weekend warrior spend intense hours of practicing, training, while building stamina and technique. We all seek to improve our performance and outcome no matter the sport. Now you can have a coach with you 24/7 who tells you what you are doing wrong, what you need to correct while logging all movement patterns and metrics of the lower body for you to review at a later time.

In the medical world gait and balance assessment/training are crucial in helping those with neuromuscular deficits, the elderly who have mobility impairments or simply individuals who wear orthotic or prosthesis devices. The Intelisoles will revolutionize the way in which clinicians interact with and help patients by providing a simple and highly effective tool to correct and enhance motor skills, helping to improve quality of life and even reduce injury related falls in seniors which is the #1 cause of injury related deaths.

[Image: 70f264e1-4fd2-4260-8fa2-b1d4f179be06-large.png]

Intelisoles is one device that has immense applications in both the Sports Performance and Medical markets. Intelisoles will be launching in 2015 with a focus in medical market for gait and balance assessment/training, and in the sports performance markets for metrics on running, cycling, golfing, lifting and more.

The Intelisoles are comprised of ultra-thin insoles which are wearable in any shoe and wirelessly communicate with Smartphones and Tablets. This will allow you to record, monitor, review and compare your body movements, like balance & weight shift, stress patterns, gait pressure patterns and foot movement during any activity. They also can provide real time audible and visual feedback to let you know when a movement pattern is not efficient or is unwanted, such as excessive heel strike during jogging, excessive and uncontrolled sway during a golf swing (sway and video recording!), or unwanted gait parameters in rehab such as over pronation or unsteady walking patterns.

The next phase of software development will be in the gaming market so your action games can be more immersive than ever. Imaging playing a skateboarding or snowboarding game, and when you jump or turn the character reacts. Intelisoles are a Wii Platform on steroids. You will no longer be confined to a square box. You will be free to run, jump, twist and dodge depending on what type of game you are playing.

Intelisoles will soon be available on http://www.kickstarter.com. Crowdfunding Donors will receive heavily discounted units at up to 75% off with free software upgrades for life. Don’t miss out. Check us out on Intelisoles.com! For pre-order and funding details

Europe phD in genetic engineering/recombinant Biotechnology scolarship

Hello everybody


I was wondering if anyone could help me by adivising me wich fully funded european scolarships exist that are not so exellence orientated but more for developing countrys and for those students with social needs. I really cant aford studying biotechnology in Manchester and paying over 20 000 euros a year, nor in Slovenia where a year is 4000 euros.

I applied in the ICGEB trieste center but unfortunately their biotech group is full, and I really dont want study any other genetic field that can be studyed at Trieste. I am completing my master in genetics in Sarajevo but my country cant facilitate any reall biotechnology studies so my master is more population genetics orientated so I am desperatly trying to find any phD scolarship in western Europe wich can give me the know hows wich I could use to improve my home country biotech situation.I would love to know how to create a pilot production in biosimilars on a small experimental scale that can evenutally grow in production.

I am interested in the recombinant or gen engineering aspect of Biotechnology wich emphasises on genetics. My bachelor degree is in medical laboratory technology so I would love to utilize the knowledge in red biotechnology for production of pharmaceutical products like insulin or interferon etc. Maybe for now I am not harboring a vast amount of knowledge in biotechnology but I am highly motivated in pursuing my goal.

I would also be grateful if someone could recommend me some Ebooks wich could give me a good intro in the recombinant aspects of biotechnology.

Looking forward for replys

Cheers and all the best

Hello!
My name's Natalie and it's my first note here.
I'm from Poland and I'm 15 now.
(My English isn't perfect, so sorry for all of mistakes).

I'm really interested in biotechnology, especially in genetic engineering, and if you have time... I'll be honestly so grateful for the answers. I've got few questions.

1) Is there (and where) in California any possibillity to practice my job when I'll be going to college in Poland? I mean... In the second or third year I want to fly to California just for maybe four months. Practice in the US will be looking very good in the cv. Smile

2) Is genetic engineering good job? In lots of ways... Money, time, difficulty... Next year I'm going to high school and I'll have to choose my class-profile. I'll probably choose biology-chemistry, but this is the last time to think about it if I'm not sure.

3) I really want to study biotechnology but I'm still not completely sure about my occupation. Are there any better choices?

Okay, I think that three questions for the start are enough.
I hope that you won't have any big problems with reading this. (My horrible English... Tongue)

I'm here also because if I want to go to the USA even for a few months, I have to learn this proffesional (biology) language.

May the force be with you. Wink

What is dentistry?

$

Dentistry is the branch of medicine that is involved in the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders and conditions of the oral cavity, commonly in the dentition but also the dental mucosa, and of adjacent and related structures and tissues, particularly in the maxillofacial area. Although primarily associated with teeth among the general public, the field of dentistry or dental medicine and dental supplies is thus not limited to odontology for which reason the two terms are used interchangeably in certain regions.

Dentistry is widely considered important for overall health. Dental treatment is carried out by the dental team, which often consists of a dentist and dental auxiliaries. Most dentists work in private practices, although some work in hospitals and institutions.

The history of dentistry is almost as ancient as the history of humanity and civilization with the earliest evidence dating from 7000BC. Prehistoric dental surgical techniques like équipements dentaires
are seen in Ancient Egypt, where a mandible dated to approximately 2650 BCE shows two perforations just below the root of the first molar, indicating the draining of an abscessed tooth. Remains from the early Harappan periods of the Indus Valley Civilization (c. 3300 BCE) show evidence of teeth having been drilled dating back 9,000 years.[3] It is thought that dental surgery was the first specialization from medicine.

Dentistry usually encompasses very important practices related to the oral cavity. Oral diseases are major public health problems due to their high incidence and prevalence across the globe with the disadvantaged affected more than other socio-economic groups.

The majority of dental treatments are carried out to prevent or treat the two most common oral diseases which are dental caries and periodontal disease. Common treatments involve the restoration of teeth, extraction or surgical removal of teeth, scaling and root planning and endodontic root canal treatment.

All dentists in the United States undergo at least three years of undergraduate studies, but nearly all complete a bachelor’s degree. This schooling is followed by four years of dental school to qualify as a "Doctor of Dental Surgery" or "Doctor of Dental Medicine". Dentists need to complete additional qualifications or continuing education to carry out more complex treatments such as sedation, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and dental implants.

Tumor-killing Guinea Pig enzyme finally characterized, 60 years later

$

After a 1953 paper revealed that guinea pig serum could kill tumor cells through L-asparaginase activity, several


bacterial L-aspariginases were developed as FDA-approved drugs to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and other

cancers. However, side effects persist due to off-target glutaminase activity and immunogenicity, so researchers recently

went back to the original source: the guinea pig. 60 years after that first report, they've now characterized a guinea

pig enzyme they say should replace currently-used cancer drugs;

New, controversial genetic engineering boosted in S.F. incubator

New, controversial genetic engineering boosted in S.F. incubator
By Stephanie M. Lee
 Updated 9:42 am, Friday, October 31, 2014


Color-changing flowers and cow-free milk may sound straight out of science fiction, but one venture capital firm is betting they’ll be the future of biotechnology before long.

Those are the kinds of quirky, yet potentially useful inventions that the Irish firm SOSventures wants to encourage by mentoring and funding life-science companies in a new San Francisco incubator.
The Bay Area already has a wide network of programs designed to speed up the growth of medical-technology startups. But Indie Bio, which SOSventures plans to open early next year, has an unusual focus: synthetic biology, a growing area of scientific research that involves engineering living organisms for practical purposes. It is a global market that will reach nearly $39 billion by 2020, according to Allied Market Research.
Synthetic biology could be the world’s best bet for tackling widespread problems like food and energy shortages, proponents say. They include Arvind Gupta, a partner at SOSventures and co-founder of the incubator, a 15,000-square-foot space being built on Market Street between Fifth and Sixth streets. Applications are due Nov. 7 to join the first companies in February.


“It’s about reprogramming or rewriting the software of life, DNA, in order to get organisms to do something useful for humans,” Gupta said.

Synthetic biology is not only new, but unregulated in the United States. Environmentalists worry that some products created with these new genetic-engineering techniques could have unseemly consequences if grown in the wild or used by humans. This month, the U.N. Convention on Biological Diversity urged 194 countries to regulate synthetic biology.

“Our concern at Friends of the Earth is, we need to make sure this is a technology that’s not going to do more harm than good,” said Dana Perls, who tracks the field for the environmental advocacy group.

Scientists have difficulty agreeing on one definition for synthetic biology. Most agree that it involves manipulating or creating living things wholesale, using techniques that are more precise and customizable than those used in traditional genetic engineering.



Adding or modifying one gene to genetically engineer foods such as corn and soy is the kind of genetic engineering that has been done since 1996. On the other hand, adding a set of genes or creating a genetic code that doesn’t exist in nature falls in the camp of synthetic biology. The technologies that have recently made the latter possible include machines that sequence DNA more quickly and cheaply than ever before, and machines that make DNA based on instructions programmed into a computer.

What are your patent renewal problems?

Hi, Nice to meet everyone.

I know that a lot of biotech firms are patent rich, so I wanted to ask those of you who have patents a favour.

I’d like to know what (if any) are your patent renewal pain points. What are your patent renewal woes? What troubles have you had with your existing provider? What would fix your problems.

After some bad patent renewal experiences we had with our own patents (actually in the food business), we’ve built a new company and service for patent renewals that’s created with the patent holders in mind first. We're now developing our service further. So, I want to ask: What would improve patent renewals for you?

Thanks in advance. Smile
