It was one of the greatest collaborative international research efforts of the 20th and 21st centuries. It cost 2.7 billion USD]]> 2018-04-09 15:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249852685 barthmar001 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249853179 Genome - is all the genetic material that an individual (or a species) has. 
Biofilms - Layers of slime that develop naturally when bacteria congregate on surfaces like stone, metal, and wood.]]> 2018-04-09 15:08:46 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249853179 tillrob000 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249857409 Acetaminophen, also known as Tylenol, effects people differently based on their genome. This is due to differences in how the body breaks down medicine. Other medicines can also fall under this category. ]]> 2018-04-09 15:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249857409 barthmar001 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249861741 - In 1930s, researchers followed up by observation showing that rats in a diet containing 20% indigestive fiber - calories that CAN NOT be used - lived much longer than normally fed peers. 
- Proteins known as sirtuins will be able to stall aging.  ]]> 2018-04-09 15:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249861741 tillrob000 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249863360 2018-04-09 15:24:39 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249863360 tillrob000 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249864308 2018-04-09 15:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249864308 barthmar001 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249870570 - Cancer is treated with Chemotherapy and it cures 80% of the children who have been diagnosed with Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
-  Molecules like sirtuins are involved in cellular metabolism and protect cells  against the harmful effect of stress - extend lifespan!]]> 2018-04-09 15:35:03 UTC https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/249870570 barthmar001 https://padlet.com/barthmar001/fya6dyqdnlz2/wish/250310642 - There are glow in the dark bacteria that scientists study to find the genetics of biofilms.
- The bioluminescence  as the glow is called, arises from chemical reactions taking place within the biofilm.
- Biofilms grow in all sorts of conditions. "desert varnish" thrives on rocks, canyon walls, or sometimes, entire mountain ranges, leaving a reddish or other-color stain.
