In an effort to update and modernize the field of archaeology, site architectural plans, stratigraphic profiles, and ceramic plates will be digitalized and vectorized to be presented in a queryable online database. The creation of a queryable database, to replace print media, would allow for complex statistical and analytical computations between and within archaeological sites.

Rolling circle amplification is used to create nanoparticles which consist of long single stranded DNA of an immunogenic sequence, specifically, a CpG sequence. The ssDNA coils into a spherical nanoparticle structure which will stimulate the patients own immune system to rid itself of cancer.

This video is one the items of the supporting information of the 2006 paper, 'Self-recognition in an Asian elephant' (PNAS November 7, 2006 vol. 103 no. 45 17053-17057). The study titled has found that elephants, like humans, chimpanzees, and dolphins, recognize themselves in mirrors.
