soham sudhakaran, my son, just published his first paper as first author in BMC Gastroenterology as a senior in high school. a study of 5,094 IBD patients identifying 22 comorbidity associations, including 3 novel findings.
proud of him & grateful to our co-authors.

more on the cosmic origins of life and the dark genome in my book Eclipsed Horizons: www.amazon.com/dp/1800618263
all five DNA/RNA building blocks just confirmed in asteroid Ryugu. a few months ago, 15 of 20 amino acids were found in Bennu. life's recipe came from space. We're all immigrants โ literally. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
My book: Eclipsed Horizons: Unveiling the Dark Genome is now available on Amazon and major bookstores worldwide.

4/ All of this is in my book "Eclipsed Horizons: Unveiling the Dark Genome" โ out now from World Scientific.

3/ We also discussed the math: using information theory & Shannon entropy, I calculated the minimum viable human genome for space survival โ ~1.2 billion base pairs. I call it "Homo minimus."
2/ We've cataloged 250,000+ novel "dark proteins" from these overlooked regions. The implications for drug discovery and neuropsychiatric disease are enormous.
1/ 98% of our DNA was dismissed as "junk" for 50 years. Our research shows it's actually an adaptive reservoir โ pre-encoded solutions that activate under environmental stress, preparing us for future challenges.

Huge thanks to Theral Timpson & Drew Thornley for hosting me on this prestigious podcast. We explored the dark genome โ and why it changes everything. ๐งต๐

finally great to have the printed book in hand! Eclipsed Horizons: challenging the 50-year dogma that 98% of our DNA is junk. a hidden proteome that matters for disease, drug discovery & space biology ๐งฌ๐ #DarkGenome #Genomics #ScienceBooks
the word consciousness is abused so much these days, especially about ai. when will scientists learn modesty? these questions were answered 1000s of years ago. it's mundane to recycle them. #ai #consciousness www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
