50 years after a seminal conference, big questions about biotechnology remain

Future Biotechnology on Instagram: "Kinesin motor proteins are essential molecular machines responsible for transporting neurotransmitter-filled vesicles inside neurons. These proteins move along microtubule tracks, carrying dopamine-containing vesicles from the neuron’s cell body (soma) to the axon terminal, where neurotransmission occurs. This process, known as anterograde transport, ensures that dopamine — a key neurotransmitter associated with reward, motivation, and emotional regulation — i

Future Biotechnology on Instagram: "The Brahminy Blindsnake (Indotyphlops braminus) is the world’s only known all-female snake species, reproducing exclusively through parthenogenesis — a type of asexual reproduction where embryos develop from unfertilized eggs. This means every offspring is a genetic clone of the mother, resulting in zero genetic variation across individuals. Despite this, the species thrives globally, demonstrating an incredible evolutionary success. Native to South and Southe
