A Relationship Between Ethics, Morality, Evolution, Psychology, Culture And Gene
Exploring the relationship between ethics, morality, evolution, psychology, culture and genetics.
http://www.onelife.com/ethics/

Extractions: From all these we may learn what life is, what the human is, the relationship between the two, and the behavioral responsibilities of the individual human. The knowledge forming the basis for 'Human Ethics and Morality' is contained in the 'Evolution and Genetics' section under the main index. If you are not familiar with the information in that section, you must at least have a basic philosophical understanding of evolution before evaluating the material contained in this section. A brief summary is available here. Fact, Knowledge and Theory Words are symbols that represent intellectual concepts. Communication depends on a reciprocal understanding and agreement on the relationships between words and concepts. A Philosophy Every human is a philosopher. His behavior reflects his concept of his relationship with all other life. This philosophy must be based on real knowledge.

http://www.myriad.com/pharma/mpc7869.html

Extractions: Alzheimer's Disease and Current Research MPC-7869 for the Treatment and Prevention of Alzheimer's Disease MPC-7869 holds promise as a safe and effective drug for the treatment and prevention of Alzheimer's disease. MPC-7869 is the pure R -enantiomer form of flurbiprofen - an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) with 25 years of clinical experience behind it. Unlike NSAIDs, however, MPC-7869 is not an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2). The compound modulates the signal transduction and transcription activation pathways associated with nuclear factor kappa B (NFkB), a principle transcription factor in the expression of many molecules involved in cell growth, cell death and inflammation. In addition, MPC-7869 has recently been shown to reduce Abeta42 peptide levels in vitro and in vivo , and reduce amyloid pathology in the brain.

Evolution Of Social Behavior In Primates: Personality Traits
Theory based on Mendelian genetics predicts that personality traits can be traced in ancestral hominid lineages. Reference to nonhuman primates. A. M. Benis, Sc.D., M.D.
http://primate_behaviour.homestead.com/

Extractions: We identify three traits that are transmitted in humans in a Mendelian fashion: Aggression (A), Perfectionism (P) and Narcissism (N). We believe that the genetic loci corresponding to these traits will soon be identified. Thus, DNA analyses in the near future will allow one to trace personality traits and even personality types in ancestral hominid lineages. The trait of perfectionism is not a basic drive of ambition and is not associated with a rage reaction. Rather it is a mediator of the unbridled drives of aggression and/or narcissism. The stereotypic acts associated with the trait of perfectionism are obsessiveness, compulsiveness, repetition, and the maintenance of neatness, order and symmetry. It is concluded that certain autistic and schizophrenic individuals are those in whom the two components of ambition, i.e., aggression and narcissism, have been suppressed by genetic or environmental factors, either congenitally, in childhood, or after maturity, thus revealing in the individual a primitive state of perfectionism.

Sociobiology: Evolution, Genes And Morality
About sociobiology, which claims to explain the origin and meaning of all human and animal social behavior in terms of genetics and natural selection.
http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/sociobio.html

Extractions: Evolution, Genes and Morality In 1981 I wrote an article for Christianity Today , which they titled "Sociobiology: Cloned from the Gene Cult."(1) At the time I was fresh from a graduate program in population genetics and had participated in two graduate seminars on the subject of sociobiology. You might be thinking, "What in the world is sociobiology, and why should I care?" That's a good question. Sociobiology explores the biological basis of all social behavior, including morality. You should care because sociobiologists are claiming that all moral and religious systems, including Christianity, exist simply because they help promote the survival and reproduction of the group. These sociobiologists, otherwise known as evolutionary ethicists , claim to be able to explain the existence of every major world religion or belief system, including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and even Marxism and secular humanism, in terms of natural selection and evolution. E. O. Wilson, a Harvard biologist and major advocate of sociobiology, claims that scientific materialism (a fully evolutionary world view) will eventually overcome both traditional religion and any other secular ideology. While Wilson does admit that religion in some form will always exist, he suggests that theology as an explanatory discipline will cease to exist.

Institute Of Medical Genetics UWCM Cardiff UK - Inherited Basis Of Human Disease
Provides an environment for geneticists to work together on the inherited bases of human disease and the consequences for individuals, families and society. Includes research data, databases, and education.
http://www.uwcm.ac.uk/uwcm/mg

Extractions: The Institute of Medical Genetics provides an environment in which molecular, cellular, mathematical and clinical geneticists (including those with medical, psychological and social science backgrounds) work together on the inherited bases of human disease and the consequences for individuals, families and society. The Institute also houses the hub of the NHS Medical Genetics Service for Wales . Many of the research successes of the Institute have been the result of accepting the challenges presented by the inherited disorders that are encountered in the population of Wales. Conversely, our research has facilitated the implementation of the most appropriate new services in clinical and laboratory genetics, often influencing practice nationally and internationally. Two of the databases maintained by the Institute are currently offered as a service to the scientific community: The Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD) and The Frequency of Inherited Disorders Database (FIDD) Education and training form a key part of the activities of the Institute, and opportunities and courses are listed on this Website. There is also information detailing the specific interests of our
