In the most recent Wired Magazine issue, I stumbled upon many nerdy things that I wanted to share. Of course, I'm way too busy and lazy to do that. Anyway, a supernerd team at the University of Washington-Seattle launched an online game in 2008 to sort of collect human brains to solve one of science's biggest mysteries, proteins.
The official news was released March 27, 2009. Roche, the Swiss pharmaceutical giant, bought out the pioneer of biotechnology Genentech at $95 per share.
