Hey everyone, McGill iGEM here! We're really happy with how the video turned out! Thank you so much @Nanorooms for this amazing collaboration! Let's see how it goes at the iGEM Grand Jamboree!
if we hadn't invented the PID controller ourselves first, would we have been able to understand how this structure works? If so, I think I'm starting to understand what people mean that we can learn from biology for completely unrelated fields. Really cool!
BRAVO! Good thing I've numbered my brain-segments for just such an occasion. Once I find them all I'll be able to unsplatter my mind. I think one bounced behind the fridge...
It's such a joy every time you upload. Sincerely thank you for all your work and teaching, haven't seen a more concise content creator on synthetic bio. Had a possibly mundane question on genetic circuit design: how do researchers actually develop genetic circuits? is it purely from part collection and then testing if the design is correct, or is there any more nuiance? Also, what was the software you guys used to test your design?
Thank you for the explanation. But how can you dispute intelligent design with all these intricate arrangements? The more math you use to explain it, the less it looks like evolution and the more it looks like intelligent design.
This is crazy - I wonder how far DNA math can go? Like will we be able to apply theses mathematical operations to things like gene modification and splicing
if DNA is turing complete (which it is), it could possibly become the best, or second best thing before quantum computers, who knows? my only thoughts is how you'd program a computer this small with high level stuff, without having to worry about all of the proteins, but oh well!
Impressive how you can do a computer with anything, even minecraft. Once you know how to encode information, you can do a computer even with sticks 😆 Computer science may be more fundamental to the universe than we think 🤔
@@hitmusicworldwide wow bro that was super smart i bet if you search up "how to build a computer in Minecraft" you wont get a playlist that a guy is currently making on how to literally make a functional x86 CPU with ram and storage using redstone, bet you didn't know that one huh
Yet we can't feed everyone and provide basic services like shelter, clean water and decent nutrition. At this point technical progress is simply making things worse by entrenching power structures that are highly innefficent.
@@anon69_qthey may've not watched the entire explanation, or contend with the proof being a complete computational system. The video is talking about a single gate in a single molecule with a task that's described as an algorithmic selector. They're talking about a grant proposal for building a system of many molecules, but that isn't proven out or done in reality yet. I believe the statement above is saying "if I build a single micron scale transistor, I didn't build a CPU." I could be completely wrong though.
Primer optimization might be an issue because of natural variation. For these PCR machines, how did they sequence their target loci and what was their sample size?
as someone who is in grade 10 and has a limited knolledge of sceince, i understood, next to nothing about how any of this worked but still watched the whole video
If you don't have a background in biology, you might want to check out some basic molecular biology first. Molecular Biology of the Cell is a fantastic textbook in that area, and it's routinely updated to cover advances in the relevant fields. That textbook is a tome at over 1500 pages, but if you focus on the first third, that will probably give you a good start. Cheers!
@@laulaja-7186hahaha you're not going to learn anything significant through RU-vid shorts, are you crazy? What can you teach someone in 1 minute intervals?
