Open source DNA

| Dr. Halperin hopes his research will reverse the NIH policy, and he will
| provide access to the software so that researchers can use it to decide which
| genetic information can be safely loaded into a public database. He also
| hopes it will quell raging debates about DNA usage and privacy issues.

PLoS Currents Uses Google Knol Collections Feature for Swine Flu Reports
,----[ Quote ]
| PLoS is a leader in the open access movement. It operates a series of
| peer-reviewed journals at its website. However, the peer-review process can
| slow down scientific communication, which becomes particularly obvious and
| unfortunate in the case of a worldwide pandemic.

DNA Database Doomed: It Works Too Well
,----[ Quote ]
| This is something I've been saying (without proof, admittedly) for a while:

| because it works *too* well in a sense - in that it lets you frame anybody
| with perfect efficiency...
