Merging the biological, electronic
Researchers grow cyborg tissues with embedded nanoelectronics
QuoteCharles M. Lieber: "With this technology, for the first time, we can work at the same scale as the unit of biological system without interrupting it. Ultimately, this is about merging tissue with electronics in a way that it becomes difficult to determine where the tissue ends and the electronics begin."
QuoteHarvard scientists have created a type of "cyborg" tissue for the first time by embedding a three-dimensional network of functional, biocompatible, nanoscale wires into engineered human tissues
Quote"Previous efforts to create bioengineered sensing networks have focused on two-dimensional layouts, where culture cells grow on top of electronic components, or on conformal layouts, where probes are placed on tissue surfaces," said Tian. "It is desirable to have an accurate picture of cellular behavior within the 3-D structure of a tissue, and it is also important to have nanoscale probes to avoid disruption of either cellular or tissue architecture."

yet another step to the HEIS :)

Resistance is Futile
Amicus, i would be fully agreed w/ ye on it, if i didn't kno how much freakingly trickiest Universe are ;) i support HEIS, but not everyone wants it in real. Opponents ain't homogenous group (Someones of'
EM have awfully different interests), but i believe they'll make their best to bury
Beast deeply before next Age ::) So f*Kingly never-ending
Game keeps moving as Always been ;D
