Common flame retardant linked to social, behavioral and learning deficits
Public release date: 16-Feb-2012 [ | E-mail | Share ] Contact: Phyllis Brown phyllis.brown@ucdmc.ucdavis.edu 916-734-9023 University of California – Davis Health System Mice genetically engineered to be susceptible to autism-like behaviors that were exposed to a common flame retardant were less fertile and their offspring were smaller, less sociable and demonstrated marked deficits in learning and long-term memory when compared with the offspring of normal unexposed mice, a study by researchers at UC Davis has found. The researchers said the study is the first to link genetics and epigenetics with exposure to a flame retardant chemical Continue reading

DuPont to Establish Molecular Breeding Technology Hub in China
DES MOINES, Iowa and BEIJING, Feb. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ – DuPont has signed a multi-year lease agreement with Beijing International Flower Port to build a state-of-the-art Technology Hub for its Pioneer seed business in Beijing, China. The new facility is slated to open later this year and will employ nearly 50 researchers. The Technology Hub will use Pioneer's global capabilities in molecular breeding to develop new high-yielding maize hybrids which will improve the sustainability of farming in China, while enhancing food security. The Technology Hub will leverage Pioneer's proprietary matrix of molecular breeding technologies called the Accelerated Yield Technology (AYT™) system. The AYT™ system uses doubled haploids, laser assisted seed selection, precision phenotyping methods and other leading technologies to identify superior gene combinations earlier in the breeding process compared to traditional methods alone. The Technology Hub is the latest addition to DuPont's growing R&D network in China. For example, Pioneer has seven other research locations and a research joint venture established in 2007 with Sino Bioway Group Co., Ltd., a Peking University bio-agriculture company, known as Beijing Kaituo DNA (KTDNA) Biotech Research Center Co., Ltd. “This is a further extension of how DuPont is investing in global science to identify solutions locally,” said William S.

Eulogy for a brilliant mentor and teacher
Here is a eulogy for a pioneering scientist that says more about the lifelong effects of a dynamic teacher on his students than any “value-added” formula ever could. The eulogy was delivered by Jeffrey Ravetch, head of the Leonard Wagner Laboratory of Molecular Genetics and Immunology at Rockefeller University in New York, at a memorial service last week for his former teacher and mentor, Norton Zinder, a ground-breaking geneticist and microbiologist. Zinder, who was my brother-in-law’s father, died this month at age 83 Continue reading
