What can the human brain and its relationship to the internet tell us about our society, our technologies, and our businesses? A lot, as it turns out. The internet today is a virtual replica of the brain, and the networks that leverage it grow and collapse in ways that are easily predictable if you understand the brain and other biological networks.

We're living in the midst of a networking revolution. All of the major technology innovations of the 21st century - social networking, cloud computing, search engines, and crowdsourcing, to name a few - leverage the internet and are thus bound by the rules of networks. We've seen the exponential growth of these technologies, and they've led to a more efficient and tightly connected world. But what many people don't realize is that all networks eventually reach a breakpoint and collapse. This happens in the brain, it happens in nature, it happened to MySpace, and it will happen to Facebook and Google. It...

Recent studies have identified a (CCG) n repeat in the 5 untranslated region of the CBL2 protooncogene (11q23.3) and have demonstrated that expansion of this repeat causes expression of the folate-sensitive fragile site FRA11B. It has also been demonstrated that FRA11B is the site of breakage in som

We report on a de novo 7q36 deletion in a 3-month-old girl with manifestations of the 7q terminal deletion syndrome. Only minimal findings of holoprosencephaly (HPE) were present since only a partial corpus callosum hypoplasia was seen on a magnetic resonance imaging scan of the brain. Extensive flu

Reciprocal translocations involving a break in the nucleolus organizer region (NOR) are rare. A balanced translocation in a mother and her fetus with breakpoints in the NOR at 14p12 and on the long arm of a chromosome 4 at band 4q21 is described. The rearrangement was characterized by Ag-NOR stainin

Since the first patient with partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 10 was described in 1978, another 23 cases have been reported, with the breakpoint ranging from 10q23.3-26.2. To contribute further to the delineation of the monosomy 10qter syndrome, we describe a female child who, at age 3
