also: hear the powerful story behind how mister sulu got his nameactor activist prolific meme-generator and cultural icon george takei graces big think with his presence today in this powerful 5-minute clip takei explores star trek creator gene roddenberry039s ambitious and progressive vision for the future: quotroddenberry felt that the enterprise was a metaphor for starship earth and the strength of this starship lay in its diversityquotwe also learn that takei039s character sulu represented a united asia free of the many strifes roddenberry witnessed during the 20th century takei tells us how the name quotsuluquot came about it039s an incredibly inspirational storyfinally takei explains the now-glaring omission of gay and lesbian characters from roddenberry039s progressive enterprise in short it was the 1960039s and the biracial kiss between uhura and kirk nearly sank the show roddenberry knew there were limits to what the public would tolerate and he couldn039t risk losing his platform for social commentary by testing them thankfully as takei notes times have changed quite a bit since then in so many ways and star trek and gene roddenberry are partly responsibleread more at bigthinkcom: http:bigthinkcomvideosgeorge-takei-on-star-trek-politicsfollow big think here:youtube: http:googlcptsv5facebook: https:wwwfacebookcombigthinkdotcomtwitter: https:twittercombigthinktranscript - the creator of star trek gene roddenberry was a true visionary the starship enterprise was supposed to be souring through space in the 23rd century by that time the crew of enterprise reflected the philosophy that gene roddenberry had gene roddenberry felt that the enterprise was a metaphor for starship earth and the strength of this starship lay in its diversity people of many different backgrounds many different cultures many different experiences many different ethnicities coming together and working in concert as a team boldly going where no one had on before and that was depicted in the make up of the crew african-american women as the communications chief the captain was a north american the engineer was a european and my character sulu was to represent asia the problem he had was to find a name for this asian character from the 23rd century because every asian surname is nationally specific tanaka is japanese wong is chinese kim is korea and 20th century asia was turbulent with warfare colonization rebellion and he didn039t want to suggest that he wanted to depict and suggest a much more enlightened society and he wanted to find a name that suggested all of asia pan asia and that was a real dilemma for him he had a map of asia pinned on the wall and he was staring at it trying to get some inspiration for the asian character and he found off the coast of the philippines the sulu sea and he thought ah the waters of a sea touch all shores embracing all of asia and that039s how my character came to have the name sulu and so that039s the kind of vision he had projecting into the 23rd centuryhowever i did very privately bring up the issue of gays and lesbians and he was certainly as a sophisticated man mindful of that but he said - in one episode we had a biracial kiss captain kirk and uhura had a kiss that show was literally blacked out in the south louisiana alabama mississippi georgia didn039t air that our ratings plummeted it was the lowest rated episode that we had and he said quoti039m treading a fine tight wire here i039m dealing with issues of the time i039m dealing with the civil rights movement the vietnam war the cold war and i need to be able to make that statement by staying on the airquot he said quotif i dealt with that issue i wouldn039t be able to deal with any issue because i would be canceledquot and i understood that because i was still closeted at that time i talked to him as a liberal rather than as a gay man and i understood his position on that so that039s the way star trek envisioned our future in the 23rd century but i think we039re getting closer to that utopian society that gene roddenberry visualized much more rapidly than even the technology we had this amazing technology on star trek we had this device on our hip walked all over the ship and whenever we wanted to talk to someone we would rip it off and start talking back in the 03960s that was an astounding device no wires attached to it and now in the 21st century early part of the 21st century we not only talk to people but all the things that we do there send text messages watch movies listen to music it039s amazing the kind of progress that we039re making both technologically an societally

nanoinjector device: new gene therapy advance from byu microbiologists and engineers
Bookmarked 571 weeks ago
byu researchers create tiny nano-device in newest gene therapy advance: nanoinjector is used to transfer genes and dna to new cellsthe ability to transfer a gene or dna sequence from one animal into the genome of another plays a critical role in the medical research of diseases such as cancer alzheimer039s and diabetesbut the traditional method of transferring genetic material into a new cell microinjection has a serious downside this method uses a hollow needle to pump a dna-filled liquid into an egg cell nucleus but that extra fluid causes the cell to swell and die 40 percent of the timenow a multidisciplinary team of brigham young university scientists has developed a way to significantly reduce cell death when introducing dna into egg cells the researchers have created a microscopic lance that delivers dna to the cells through electrical forcesquotbecause dna is naturally negatively charged it is attracted to the outside of the lance using positive voltagequot said brian jensen byu professor of mechanical engineering quotonce we insert the lance into a cell we simply reverse the polarity of the electrical force and the lance releases the dnaquotbecause the lance is 10 times smaller and no extra fluid is used the cells undergo significantly less stress compared to microinjection and thus have a higher survival rate the researchers describe their quotmetamorphic nanoinjectionquot process in an article published today by review of scientific instrumentscurrently the byu researchers which include microbiology professor sandra burnett and mechanical engineering professor larry howell are using the technique to inject dna into mouse zygotes single-cell embryos consisting of a fertilized eggquotthe microinjection technology hasn039t really changed over the last 40-50 years since it was inventedquot burnett said quotnot having to force liquid into the nuclei by shifting to a lance is a huge advantage it not only increases the survival rate but it also causes less damage for future developmentquotin research published in transgenic research the team found that 776 of nanoinjected mouse zygotes proceeded to the two-cell stage of development as compared to 547 for microinjected zygotesa major reason for creating transgenic animals is to research genetic or infectious diseases by modifying the genes of a mouse to carry a human disease researchers can generate data with insights into future treatments and therapies for those illnessesone of the byu team039s most significant findings is that it039s possible to use the electrical forces to get dna into the nucleus of a cell without aiming the lance into the pronucleus the cellular structure containing the cell039s dna this may mean that injections can be performed in animals with cloudy or opaque embryosquotsuch animals including many interesting larger ones like pigs would be attractive for a variety of transgenic technologiesquot jensen said quotwe believe nanoinjection may open new fields of discovery in these animalsquotjensen said more efficient injections should also reduce the cost to create transgenic animals jensen039s research is funded in part by the 400000 awarded to him in 2011 through a national science foundation career awardquentin aten a former phd student at byu now with nexus spine llc served as the lead author on the research published in review of scientific instrumentshttp:newsbyueduarchive14-may-nanoinjectoraspx
