In the future, patch cells might be used for treating damaged hearts…
“Jordan Lancaster and Steven Goldman, researchers from the Southern Arizona Veterans Administration and the University of Arizona, put rat heart cells on a piece of synthetic mesh and within a few days, it started beating. The hope is that down the road the patch of cells could be used to treat damaged hearts.”
Although I’ll probably still call my little brother for very important decisions such as, which iPod color I should get or what to name the different partitions on my storage devices, I still think this is a cool idea for a website.
So I decided to search for a new hobby to take up, being as its been raining for about 2 months now and somewhat difficult in these extreme weather conditions (ahem, soggy sneakers.) I was surprised when it recommended swing dancing. Hm. Maybe the algorithm has been configured to represent the past rather than predict recommendations for the future. Either way, right on. I heart swing dancing!!
