Mapping brain in preemies may predict later disability
Posted by Karen Hurst in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience
MINNEAPOLIS — Scanning a premature infant’s brain shortly after birth to map the location and volume of lesions, small areas of injury in the brain’s white matter, may help doctors better predict whether the baby will have disabilities later, according to a new study published in the January 18, 2017, online issue of Neurology ®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in 10 babies is born prematurely in the United States.
Lack of oxygen to the brain is the most common form of brain injury in premature infants, resulting in damage to the white matter. White matter contains nerve fibers that maintain contact between various parts of the brain. Damage to white matter can interfere with communication in the brain and the signals it sends to other parts of the body.

QC communications (includes networking) is now available in China.
Nice job China; now if the rest of us can catch up.
China’s quantum communication satellite, launched last August, is officially operational after four months of in-orbit testing, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) said Wednesday.

Hope folks are realizing this is happening and now real. Not sure what experiments their doing as they have already been experimenting already on hacking.
The world’s first quantum science and communications satellite has been handed over to Chinese scientists for the official start of experiments to test the phenomena of quantum entanglement and ‘unhackable’ quantum communication.
The Quantum Experiments at Space Scale (QUESS) satellite was launched on August 15 last year and soon after began testing its payloads and space-to-ground links.

My dream is coming true — Biocomputing with QC technology.
University of Maryland exploits redox molecules in E. coli to instruct the bacteria to swim or fluoresce based on electronic stimuli.
