Summary:
   Researchers have developed a groundbreaking microscopy method that
enables detailed three-dimensional (3D) RNA analysis at cellular resolution
in whole intact mouse brains.
The new method, called TRISCO, has the potential to transform our understanding of brain function,
both in normal conditions and in disease, according to the new study.

There are a lot of different RNA molecules in the brain, and this method
can identify three of them, though they hope to be able to push this up
to a hundred or so in the future.

There are 23,000 different messenger RNA's encoded in the human genome,
and whole lot different sorts of RNA that does other jobs.

The researcher's seem to have a way to go yet.

 Sure, but it is a facinating field.
I am waiting for the 'Build Your Own DIno' kit in teh shops..
 Hackers will then make virusses that specifically target some religions....
for example.
