Obsolescence and Intervention: On Synthetic-Biological Entities
Oftentimes, topics that might fall outside of science’s remit seem to end up becoming a part of it, sooner or later. This appears to be the case of synthetic biology, a new biological science (although some maintain that it is a form of engineering, or treat it as such; Endy, 2005), which seems to have become essential to the understanding of living beings and their extreme manipulation. I beli...
متن کاملSynthetic Social Relationships for Computational Entities
Humans and many other animals form long term social relationships with each other. These relationships confer a variety of benefits upon us, both as individuals and as groups. Computational systems that can form social relationships like those formed by animals could reap many of the benefits of sociality, both within their own groups and in their interactions with people. This dissertation exp...
متن کاملDiscovering implicit associations among critical biological entities
We propose an approach to predicting implicit gene-disease associations based on the inference network, whereby genes and diseases are represented as nodes and are connected via two types of intermediate nodes: gene functions and phenotypes. To estimate the probabilities involved in the model, two learning schemes are compared; one baseline using co-annotations of keywords and the other taking ...
متن کاملData Exclusivity for New Biological Entities
Congress is current considering legislation that would create a regulatory pathway for follow-on biologics. One critical issue in this regard is the issue of data exclusivity for innovators. This is an important form of intellectual property that complements patent protection. Data exclusivity is the period of time before a follow-on competitor can enter the market with an abbreviated filing th...
متن کاملChemical Entities of Biological Interest: an update
Chemical Entities of Biological Interest (ChEBI) is a freely available dictionary of molecular entities focused on 'small' chemical compounds. The molecular entities in question are either natural products or synthetic products used to intervene in the processes of living organisms. Genome-encoded macromolecules (nucleic acids, proteins and peptides derived from proteins by cleavage) are not as...
