11:00:06 | SLacker | Pamar Bjornson: told you I was naked |
11:00:10 | SLacker | Shy Mathys: what was sat hacking? |
11:00:11 | giulio | atetnding on IRC wife has PC |
11:00:20 | SLacker | Khannea Suntzu: I see |
11:00:22 | SLacker | Khannea Suntzu: Skinless |
11:00:31 | SLacker | Pamar Bjornson: hello lucifer |
11:00:32 | SLacker | Manoj Undercity has arrived |
11:00:45 | SLacker | Pamar Bjornson: hi manoj |
11:00:49 | SLacker | Manoj Undercity: Namaste Lucifer |
11:00:50 | Sat | welcom Giulio |
11:00:56 | SLacker | Manoj Undercity: hello pamar |
11:00:57 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Let's begin |
11:00:58 | Sat | hello everyone else |
11:01:07 | SLacker | Manoj Undercity: oh im just in time |
11:01:09 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Today's topic is issues in genetic engineering |
11:01:14 | SLacker | Manoj Undercity: hello sat |
11:01:27 | SLacker | Manoj Undercity: wee..something im familiar with |
11:01:32 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: First I'd like to suggest a simple taxonomy |
11:01:33 | giulio | how many in SL? |
11:01:38 | SLacker | Khannea Suntzu: Ahhh cool |
11:01:51 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: There are 2 kinds: somatic and germline |
11:02:21 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Somatic GE is applied to a grown organism, genes are introduced to specific cells through a vector like a virus |
11:02:32 | Sat | * Sat cheers |
11:03:02 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Germline engineering is applied to a undeveloped (single celled) organism, and the new genes end up in every cell |
11:03:08 | SLacker | Khannea Suntzu: Somatic actually works on the entire organism without like *death* as a side effect? |
11:03:41 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Germline engineering also applies to all the organisms descendents (as opposed to somatic) |
11:04:03 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: On another dimension we have therapeutic vs. enhancment GE |
11:04:26 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Where therapeutic corrects some condition, a genetic disease for instance |
11:04:28 | giulio | this distinction is very blurred |
11:04:35 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow nods |
