what kind of chemicals do you refer to? You mean pesticides? I had no idea they were 100k!

As someone who does molecular biology but is not aware that much about neuroscience (because let's face it, we're all pretty siloed in biology), what are the biggest/hottest new questions in molecular neuroscience right now? For instance in my field, one of the biggest questions is is there a general mechanism/function of enhancers RNAs, or is it kind of like what we see with lincRNAs and it's lncRNA dependent.

What is the best bio department at Harvard and why is it BBS?

The problem with bottled water however isn't whether it's good management. Rather it's the large amount of plastic used to contain it (because it's cheap).

one more thing to add. how will you also lower the costs given you need scaffolds and a ton of cells to grow? I did a pilot estimate using current prices for raw material from biosuppliers to determine the cost to produce the number of cells needed for a typical-sized burger and found each burger to be around 2-3 thousand dollars (http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/1jrupo/vegans_of_reddit_would_meat_grown_in_a_lab_change/cbixnva?context=3)

Even with a bulk discount (say 50% off) and economies of scale, that could end up being several hundred per burger, which for the average consumer is unsustainable. I'm wondering what is the strategy for lowering the price signicantly.
