Evolving into Planned Personhood? I wonder if they’ll sell body parts of the genetically undesirable.

drugs alcohol, cigarettes, nicotine, poor food, dirty air, all cause genetic damage. That is why a sick America needs immigrants, to take over.

It's more like 90% though. We've known this for decades.

Makes the concept of eugenics all that more frightening.

we were not made by a machine so the different Humans are a fact base by parents and thier parents but each are seperate and have their own hand print

Science is filled with mistakes in assertion. Science should not become complacent, too much more to be discovered.

Scary.... science picking winners and losers before they are born.

Here comes eugenics!! This kind of research could be “fascinating” for scientists, but they/we need to consider the ethical implications of this at a policy/politics level. And news+media should be wary of publicizing such research. Cc cnn washingtonpost NYTScience

These research findings could pave the way for immunotherapy with GWI, in the framework of personalized medicine. This will enable to provide veterans with GWI more precise diagnosis and targeted treatment, specific to their personal symptoms and genetic risk factors.

The research findings show that HLA affects the neural synchrony and predicts symptom types. *** The results indicate that the Gulf War Illness - GWI is caused by a combination of genetics and environmental exposures.

An additional study, published in October 2016, combines the HLA risk factors and the brain miscommunication patterns to explain the existence of Gulf War Illness symptoms. 65 Gulf War veterans with GWI and 16 without had MEG scans to assess neural synchrony.

Research studies have shown that cognitively healthy people display similar patterns of synchrony, while abnormal neural synchrony is linked to PTSD and schizophrenia, for example.

Neural synchrony is important for cognitive functions such as attention, memory, and communication between nerves and muscles.

The MEG scans found clear distinctions between the two groups in synchronous neural interactions, and these differences are 'excellent predictors of GWI'.

In a follow-up research study published in October 2016, MEG scans on 40 veterans with GWI and 46 without GWI show sharp differences in brain function in the cerebellum and frontal cortex, between healthy and ill Gulf War veterans.

A first research study included 66 veterans with GWI and 16 without the illness, and found differences in HLA gene type, based on blood tests. Veterans with GWI had genetic susceptibility to developing the symptoms, the research reveals.

Symptoms of GWI are fatigue, rashes, body aches and joint swelling, gastrointestinal problems, memory loss, depression, anxiety, and chronic headaches. And many veterans with GWI also have PTSD.

It is estimated that 300,000 veterans – 4 in 10 of all veterans deployed to the Persian Gulf during 'Desert Shield' and 'Desert Storm' in the early 1990s have GWI, a illness that mostly affects the brain.

The research suggests that certain alleles of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene, located on chromosome 6 offer protection from GWI, while a lack of those alleles made veterans vulnerable to developing GWI symptoms.

Brain maps based on MEG scan data show clear differences between Veterans with Gulf War illness and Veterans without it.

According to the research findings published in November 2016, certain variants, or alleles of a gene playing a key role in the immune system offer protection from Gulf War Illness (GWI).

In 2016 Veteran Affairs researchers from the Brain Sciences Center at the Minneapolis VA used MEG brain scans to track the differences in brain between veterans who had served in the Gulf War and healthy people.

On the other side, 31 of the 250 healthy patients had abnormal scan results. This suggested the need to perform a more detailed evaluation, in order to see if the 31 assumed healthy people might have PTSD.

For 72 of the 74 patients previously diagnosed with PTSD, MEG scans detected a pattern of neural communications that was different from the healthy participants, but shared among the PTSD group.

The research findings were published in January 2010 in the 'Journal of Neural Engineering'.

who had served in World War II, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq and a control group of 250 healthy controls recruited from the general public.

This is the conclusion of research led by Dr. Apostolos P. Georgopoulos, director of the Brain Sciences Center, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, at Minneapolis, Minnesota, based on a clinical trial which incorporated 74 veterans with PTSD

*** Magnetoencephalography may have the potential to diagnose posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), while conventional brains scans, including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, failed to do.

A completely noninvasive imaging technique that does not imply exposure to radiation, MEG is a highly accurate, real-time diagnostic tool for the investigation of brain activity, with excellent spatial resolution, enabling to localize neuronal sources with millimeter precision.

Recent research has also reported the capability of successful classification of patients with multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia compared to healthy controls using MEG.

Combined with mapping of brain functions, MEG could ultimately play a major role in noninvasive epilepsy surgery evaluation.

Magnetoencephalography not only provides a new and important tool to localize and characterize epileptiform disturbances, but it could help determine the meaning of abnormalities seen on both structural and functional imaging.

Epilepsy studies show that MEG can localize spike sources when recording spontaneous cerebral activity.

Combined with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), MEG has emerged as a routine clinical diagnostic tool for epilepsy, for example.

The analysis of the spatial distributions of the magnetic fields enables to localize the sources of the activity within the brain, and these source locations superimposed on anatomical images, such as MRI, provide information about both the structure and function of the brain.

Together, the combined information enables to understand both the structure and the function of certain locations in the brain.

Only half ?

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides detailed information regarding the areas of activity for achieving a particular task. Instead, magnetoencephalography (MEG) tells when certain areas in the brain become active.

Research suggests that events in our lives can affect the development of our children and even grandchildren, without changing the DNA.

For example, adults who grew up with alcoholic or abusive parents, all carry with them more than just memories. And they even can transmit the predisposition to the next generations.

It is true that the most important set of traits we all have comes from the DNA, passed down through generations. But the environment could also make genetic changes, not related to the DNA sequence.

If they take under consideration that life energy that comes into flash is a bio chip that holds information about traveling in light time and experience! That chip could be in human flash of many times and have information that has effects on human body as well!!!

We inherit a copy of each gene from each parent. It is having different genes that makes us all unique and different from each other.

Each strand of DNA is a long string of genes, segments of DNA which code for the transfer of information.

DNA is the genetic code – the blueprint for a human being. It is like an instruction manual for building the body and keeping it healthy.

Gene-edited food is coming, but will shoppers buy?WASHINGTON (AP) — The next generation of biotech food is headed for the grocery aisles, and first up may be salad dressings or granola bars made with soybean oil genetically tweaked to be good for your heart. By early next year, the first foods from plants or animals that had their DNA 'edited' are expected to begin selling. It's a different technology than today's controversial 'genetically modified' foods, more like faster breeding that promises to boost nutrition, spur crop growth, and make farm animals hardier and fruits and vegetables last longer.

Farm animals may soon get new features through gene editingOAKFIELD, N.Y. (AP) — Cows that can withstand hotter temperatures. Cows born without pesky horns. Pigs that never reach puberty. A company wants to alter farm animals by adding and subtracting genetic traits in a lab. It sounds like science fiction, but Recombinetics sees opportunity for its technology in the livestock industry. But first, it needs to convince regulators that gene-edited animals are no different than conventionally bred ones. To make the technology appealing and to ease any fears that it may be creating Franken-animals, Recombinetics isn't starting with productivity. Instead, it's introducing gene-edited traits as a way to ease animal suffering. candicechoi Scary in many ways. candicechoi Why? Isn't that up to God? candicechoi Mephistopholean.

AP Exclusive: First gene-edited babies claimed in ChinaHONG KONG (AP) — A Chinese researcher claims that he helped make the world's first genetically edited babies — twin girls whose DNA he said he altered with a powerful new tool capable of rewriting the very blueprint of life. If true, it would be a profound leap of science and ethics. A U.S. scientist said he took part in the work in China, but this kind of gene editing is banned in the United States because the DNA changes can pass to future generations and it risks harming other genes. Many mainstream scientists think it's too unsafe to try, and some denounced the Chinese report as human experimentation. I thought you couldn't say boys or girls on twitter anymore? Let’s put them in a room with Magic and see what happens The U.S. has the same type of technology, but instead of creating a 'super race,' they are too busy dumbing us all down.
