[news] 好基因,坏基因
早就有人怀疑 bipolar disorder 跟艺术天赋有直接的关联。现在有人分析人群基因,把 bipolar, schizophrenia, and creativity 三样从基因上重叠起来。报道见下:

另一个刚出来的研究表明,给人类带来聪明的基因可能也是导致老年痴呆症的基因:

The usual disclaimer apply. 都是初步数据,未经多方证实,take with a grain of salt.
不过这倒是跟民间传说里的某个类型故事很象,人想得到更多的好东西,得到了好东西却没得到好结果,因为祸福相依,或者祸福根本是一回事。想更聪明吗?老了就更傻。

现在闹腾得最凶的是 CRISPR 技术。

With CRISPR, you can edit existing genome in any way you like.
That bipolar and schizophrenia have overlapping causative genes have long been confirmed. Artistic phenotype has been associated with bipolar phenotype. So the genetic overlap came as no surprise. OTOH, this has not been duplicated.

CRISPR sounds like a pandora box waiting to be open.
Isn't alzheimers or demantia pretty much inevitable for people in their 80s and 90s?

盒子已经打开啦,关也来不及啦。所以现在特火爆呀。如果真有聪明基因,长寿基因,抗癌基因,虎妈们还不一拥而上。
痴呆症我也不清楚,但是一般认为 Alzheimer 是一种特定的痴呆症,而其他类型的痴呆与之机制不同。

我觉得世界越来越往科幻小说的方向走了。虽然我很爱看科幻小说,不过想到也许在有生之年就能真地生活在科幻世界上,还是觉得很茫然。

现在已经可以人工选择性别了吧如果你够执着不怕苦也有钱的话。
我觉得很茫然是因为觉得很多事情发生得太快人类社会不见得准备好了。
