ParahSailini got two mouse chips from affy06:25
ParahSailinnext time i go on site i need to go upstairs and grab a bunch of human ones06:25
ParahSailingenechip mouse genome 430 2.0 array if anyone's curious06:26
ParahSailinnot sure if this is scrap or viable06:26
ParahSailinhm, i gotta have them genotype my family as a fringe benefit06:30
kanzureParahSailin: can you possibly claim that you have a very very large extended family06:31
ParahSailinthey should have known that before they gave a guy with an irish name a job06:32
ParahSailintheir problem for not catching that sooner06:32
ParahSailini actually have no idea how a microarray is actually run06:33
ParahSailinso what i need looks like the genome wide human 6.0 array06:34

kanzureCaptHindsight: yes, generally biologists are quite isolated from the engineering and computation people13:26
juri_ah. i'm the instructor there, and was a member of the meat hacking group.13:26
kanzureadditionally, many of the community labs tend to take most of their activity in person instead of online, thus why there's no content (sadly)13:26
kanzureCaptHindsight: yes, we should talk to the suppliers about sureseal and see what they say13:27

streetyI've observed someone using an interface similar to the Pronterface UI, even with regular use they still needed to stop and think about which direction they wanted to move . . . every time they wanted to move16:46
kanzureeh just use a joystick16:47
kanzurewait do they still make joysticks anymore16:48
streetynot sure that solves the issue. you could still match up movements either looking down from above or up from beneath, etc16:55
kanzurewell, it makes sense to think before moving a machine, perhaps a simulation mode would be useful16:59
streetyTo a certain extent you are correct. I would suggest thinking about the movement you want to make is sensible, but being forced to think about how to execute a movement is just bad design17:17

yoleaux"The wood frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) has a broad distribution over North America, extending from the southern Appalachians to the boreal forest with several notable disjunct populations including lowland eastern North Carolina." — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rana_sylvatica22:22
kanzure"... wood frogs can tolerate the freezing of their blood and other tissues.[6][7] Urea is accumulated in tissues in preparation for overwintering, and liver glycogen is converted in large quantities to glucose in response to internal ice formation. Both urea and glucose act as cryoprotectants to limit the amount of ice that forms and to reduce osmotic shrinkage of cells.[8][9] Frogs can survive many freeze/thaw events during winter if no ...22:24
kanzure... more than about 65% of the total body water freezes."22:24

kanzureah primate torpor is apparently a thing, http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S167202291500046722:32
kanzure"Primate Torpor: Regulation of Stress-activated Protein Kinases During Daily Torpor in the Gray Mouse Lemur, Microcebus murinus"22:32
kanzure"Very few selected species of primates are known to be capable of entering torpor. This exciting discovery means that the ability to enter a natural state of dormancy is an ancestral trait among primates and, in phylogenetic terms, is very close to the human lineage. To explore the regulatory mechanisms that underlie primate torpor, we analyzed signal transduction cascades to discover those involved in coordinating tissue responses ...22:33

The responses of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family members to primate torpor were compared in six organs of control (aroused) versus torpid gray mouse lemurs, Microcebus murinus. The proteins examined include extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), c-jun NH2-terminal kinases (JNKs), MAPK kinase (MEK), and p38, in addition to stress-related proteins p53 and heat shock protein 27 (HSP27)."22:33
kanzure"Importantly, both adipose tissues possess specialized functions that are critical for torpor, with brown adipose required for non-shivering thermogenesis and white adipose utilized as the primary source of lipid fuel for torpor. Overall, these data indicate crucial roles of MAPKs in the regulation of primate organs during torpor."22:33
kanzurean interesting variation (that mike did not suggest..) is that you could do directed evolution and selective breeding for organs that better survive freezing, and in particular you could select the ones that seem to make gross anatomical changes during the freezing process (or in preparation for freezing- perhaps with some signaling method that you pick). these changes might not confer any survival benefit whatsoever, except that we ...22:35
kanzure... suspect that the changes might confer survival benefits. so we can just select the organs that seem to be more likely to survive, even if they aren't actually surviving yet.22:35
kanzure(however, since organs seem to already be surviving at some rate, it seems like that sort of technique will not be required)22:35
kanzureand for the purposes of recovery, you could do the reverse- something like, take an organ down to low temperature but not freezing, and then check whether the changes you want are happening, and select the organisms for the ones that perform appropriate cleanup and resuscitation, and uhh then figure out some way to ensure that those genetic expression networks are triggered when thawing 4realz22:39
