1989! This track is over 20 years old, which – I suppose – is like living in the era of the Beach Boys and listening to the Charleston. Whatever. Wop Bop Torledo were Maryanne Morgan and Gary Stoner and they didn’t last very long (a couple of singles and one failure of an album apparently)

We recently reported on an academic article that criticised one of the most popular methods for diagnosing psychopaths and which had remained unpublished for four years due to legal threats by the designers of the interview. The article was by researchers Jennifer Skeem and David Cooke who had criticised the PCL-R, a diagnostic scale by renowned forensic psychologist Robert Hare, for its supposed over-focus on criminality. Their piece was peer reviewed and accepted for publication in 2006 b…

From Wachter’s World , which he prefaces with: As a member of the executive committee of the American Board of Internal Medicine, I can’t provide too much of the inside scoop, so I’ll mainly point you to the published descriptions of a remarkable case: that of one Dr. Arora, who ran an ABIM board review course with a difference. Good for the ABIM.  If you need to cheat to pass the Boards, you don’t need to be Board Certified

Just the other day, I saw a tweet from Jennifer , asking her the question that many of us who live here get from time-to-time, “Should I Move to France?” It’s pretty hard to decide to make such a life-changing move, for many people. Moving to a foreign country isn’t easy, but it does have it’s rewards

An inexpensive cancer drug improves vision in people with a debilitating form of sight loss known as wet age-related macular degeneration, researchers reported today in BMJ. The drug, sold under the brand name Avastin, is not approved to treat vision loss, but is still widely used off-label as a cheap alternative to the drug Lucentis, both of which are sold by Genentech.

Last week I briefly talked about an easy way to reorder applications in Zoho Business by simply dragging and dropping items on the side bar. When you click on an app on the sidebar, the application launches on the right within Zoho Business. What if you don’t want the application to launch within Zoho Business?

There have been plenty of other posts here on Think Gene foretelling the failure of the DTC market, such as free microarray tests. The consensus is that for these companies to survive, they must enter the medical market.  Critics will say that while companies such as 23andme, Navigenics, and deCODE are just waiting for the right time to enter the medical market, I think there is a different reason why they haven’t entered this market: malpractice. Let’s first examine the issues in pharmacogen…

The Institute’s attention was drawn to certain news reports giving the impression that the Institute has mooted a proposal to open doors for MNC audit firms to operate in India .

Through the early 1960s, it was common practice for employers to segregate job listings for men and women. In many cases, identical ads were run for each gender – but with a lower pay rate for the job targeting women.

Last Friday my daughter and I enjoyed a lovely Indian cooking class with Rinku Bhattacharya, a special blogger friend and excellent cooking teacher.  She took us through the paces to prepare a complete Indian meal consisting of garlic cumin rice, saag paneer ( creamy spinach wth cubed Indian cheese), naan and tomato cardamom chicken curry. Her downstairs cooking class kitchen was soon filled with the aromas of heavenly Indian spices.  Rinku clearly explained each step as we chopped, pureed and kneaded our way along

The search for the genetic underpinnings of autism spectrum disorder has just yielded a new set of clues. In the largest study to date, the Autism Genome Project consortium reports that people with autism have more copy number variants – segments of DNA that have been either duplicated or deleted – in their genes. The results, published today in Nature, could eventually be used to develop quick diagnostic tests

A bit of background information: this is a meeting I am really happy to be part of, and even more so honored to be a co-organizer. One of my main scientific interests is the prediction of the function of genes and proteins of unknown function. Some background information: we have sequenced more than 1000 genomes of microbes, and hundreds of plants and animals.

If there were life on the Saturnian moon of Titan, the thinking goes, it would have to inhabit pools of methane or ethane at a cool -300 degrees Fahrenheit, and without the aid of water. While scientists don’t know just what that life would look like, they can predict what effects such tiny microbes would have on Titan’s atmosphere. That’s why researchers from the Cassini mission are excited now: They’ve found signatures that match those expectations
