Dear #AleenaMushtaq @emblebi
Thanks for #EnsemblGenomeBrowser2025 talk 1/29/25 https://youtu.be/K7cmwK1ODnc How might the time aspect of changing genomes inform a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenomics How to dev with MIT #HTGAA course
Dear European Molecular Biology Laboratory EMBL-EBI, Aleena (Mushtaq Stolworthy), Anna (Swan), Ewan (Birney, EMBL Director), MIT Media Lab HTGAA faculty lead David (Sun Kong), Harvard and MIT Professor of Genetics' George (Church), Peter (Norvig, Google AI Director), All,
Greetings, and thanks for the great Ensembl Genome Browser (2025) presentation yesterday Th 1/29/25 from near Cambridge England -
Where might the time function of a changing genome over the life of an organism become part of the ENSEMBL browser? (At MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch we are seeking to create a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenomics (in 1 iterating #RealisticVirtualEarth and see Peter Norvig's INCREDIBLE #ToolifyAIWUaS article mentioning a realistic virtual earth for the first time other than WUaS's facilitating this - https://www.toolify.ai/ai-news/revolutionizing-education-with-machine-learning-and-ai-2574306 - "Revolutionizing Education with Machine Learning and AI: #WorldUniversityInSchool ) - thinking Google Street View with time slider, #GCellView, #GMoleculeView, #GMaps with #TensorFlowAI and potentially with Pegman in G Street View becoming #AvatarAgentElectronicHealthRecords not only for humans but for many species, and individuals - with a focus on coding for the time aspect of genome changes, and regarding the phenotype, and even for aging reversal genomics' emerging gene drug therapies in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForPharma … Asked and found “AI Overview Yes, the genomes of species change with age. These changes include DNA methylation, mutations, and changes in gene expression”)
And how to bring together, potentially, the developing EMBL Ensembl Genome Browser with the 2025 edition of ‘How To Grow (Almost) Anything’ (HTGAA) synthetic biology course (from MIT and Harvard for registered students, as well as #GlobalListeners like myself), beginning Tu 2/4/25?
And in doing so, how to create a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenomics, a #RealisticVirtualEarthForAgingReversal and even an #AgingReversalMachine (eg in a Physical-Digital #WUaSHospitalRoom eg view #GStreetViewRoom -https://youtu.be/q9FBhEAXRY4... and with EMBL at the molecular level)?
Summary: This session introduces core biology concepts, from the central dogma to emerging applications such as phage therapy and genetic circuits. Participants will gain a solid foundation in DNA/RNA structure and function, genome engineering, and circuit design.
Summary: The second session focuses on the scientific method, experiment design, and essential laboratory techniques. Participants will learn about literature research, molecular biology tools, and best practices for conducting and documenting experiments.

Scientific Figures (15 min)
Speaker: Dominika Wawrzyniak
Subtopics: Creating clear and accurate scientific images
Summary: The third session dives into coding and software tools for bioinformatics. Participants will practice Python fundamentals, explore Google Colab for biological data analysis, and learn how to perform in silico cloning using Benchling.
Part III Topics & Agenda
Python Fundamentals & Colab (60 min)
Speaker: Paul Kao

Apply to be a #GlobalListener or student in this #MITHarvard course @GihanJaya ? How best to grow a #WetLab & #VirtualDrosophila in 1 #RealisticVirtualEarth & in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics (& esp in #RealisticVirtualHarbin @HarbinBook eg for #EthnoWikiVirtualWorldGraphy)?
