Itâs good to be open
,----[ Quote ]
| Thatâs the title of a panel discussion which took place at Londonâs BFI last night.
| Chaired by Russell Davies from the Really Interesting Group the discussion set out
| to explore the development and future of open source. Conversations rocked up
| because the head of user experience design for Nokiaâs Maemo unit, Harri Kiljander,
| made up one third of the panel discussing the topic.

The Freedom to Cure Cancer: Open Source Software in Genomics
,----[ Quote ]
| The Genome Center at Washington University in St. Louis has been at the
| forefront of genomics since its formation in 1990. Helping to lead the
| sequencing and analysis of the first multi-cellular organism, C. elegans, and
| the Human Genome Project, The Genome Center has long leveraged
| free/libre/open source software (FLOSS). One hallmark of these sequencing
| efforts has been the rapid dissemination of sequence data for all to download
| and use.

Born a Creationist, Merckâs Schadt Leads Open Source Effort to Unravel Genome
,----[ Quote ]
| One of the worldâs brightest minds at analyzing human DNA was born into a
| family of creationists. When he was 17 and graduating from high school in a
| rural area of southwestern Michigan, Eric Schadt couldnât even imagine going
| to college.
|
| âMy parents were very religious,â Schadt told me on a visit to his office
| last week. They didnât emphasize education, and neither did the community, he
| says. âHigher education just wasnât something that people looked forward to
| there. I didnât really know what college was.â
