Eugenics? A protein particle that made humans most intelligent found
Vatic Note: So, my question is who funded the project and why? Notice where the study was published…. yup, it has to do with genetics and that is a bell ringer when you see that and an article that does not include who funded it. Rockefeller foundation by any chance???
I read the elite intended to use eugenics to advance themselves into super humans, stop the aging process, degrade us into cattle, and thus rule the planet without having to deal with the dirty filthy masses of humanity as anything more than assets and cattle to serve them. Should prove interesting indeed.
Remember, this kind of work was prosecuted based on the Nuremberg protocols and people were hung for doing this during WW II and now we accept it as nothing. We must begin to understand the long range implications of this kind of work and research and enforce the criminal codes against those who would do this to us. No one appointed them God. At least not yet.
A protein particle that made humans most intelligent found

Scientists have discovered that a tiny particle within a protein allowed humans to become the most intelligent creatures on the planet.
DUF1220 is a protein domain of unknown function that shows a striking human-specific increase in copy number is considered important to human brain evolution.
Humans have more than 270 copies of DUF1220 encoded in their DNA, far more than other species.
“This research indicates that what drove the evolutionary expansion of the human brain may well be a specific unit within a protein – called a protein domain – that is far more numerous in humans than other species,” Professor James Sikela from the University said.
The closer a species is to humans, the more copies of DUF1220 show up. Chimpanzees have the next highest number, 125. Gorillas have 99, marmosets 30 and mice just one.
“The one over-riding theme that we saw repeatedly was the more copies of DUF1220 in the genome, the bigger the brain. And this held true whether we looked at different species or within the human population,” Sikela was quoted as saying by the paper.
It may also explain how human brain’s unequalled mental capacity evolved so rapidly and dramatically, a mystery that has baffled researchers for decades.
The modern human brain is three times larger in volume than those of the great apes, our closest living relatives.
More importantly, its ratio to body size is significantly larger and it has a much greater cerebral cortex, the area that controls higher thought processes, with a higher concentration of neurons.
The study was published in The American Journal of Human Genetics.
