INTELLIGENCE ENGINEERING'S ALPHABET : World Class Biobrains: Drew Endy, Matt Scullin, Daniel Swiger++- BI BioIntelligence, the most collaborative human challenge Mother Earth has ever staged?
NB any errors below are mine alone chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk but mathematically we are in a time when order of magnitude ignorance can sink any nation however big. Pretrain to question everything as earth's data is reality's judge
Its time to stop blaming 2/3 of humans who are Asian for their consciously open minds and love of education. Do Atlantic people's old populations still trust and celebrate capability of generating healthy innovative brains? What's clear to anyove visting Washington DC or Brussels is a dismal mismatch exists between the gamechanging future opportunities listed below and how freedom of next generation learning has got muddled by how old male-dominated generations waste money on adevrtising and bossing. Consider the clarity of Stanford's Drew Endy's Strange Competition 1 2:
Up to “60% of the physical inputs to the global economy”7 could be made via biotechnology by mid-century, generating ~$30 trillion annually in mostly-new economic activity. 8 Emerging product categories include consumer biologics (e.g., bioluminescent petunias,9 purple tomatoes,10 and hangover probiotics11 ), military hard power (e.g., brewing energetics12 ), mycological manufacturing (e.g., mushroom ‘leather’ 13 ), and biotechnology for technology (e.g., DNA for archival data storage14 ). Accessing future product categories will depend on unlocking biology as a general purpose technology15 (e.g., growing computers16 ), deploying pervasive and embedded biotechnologies within, on, and around us (e.g. smart blood,17 skin vaccines,18 and surveillance mucus19 ), and life-beyond lineage (e.g., biosecurity at birth,20 species de-extinction21 ).		.

Natural living systems operate and manufacture materials with atomic precision on a planetary scale, powered by ~130 terawatts of energy self-harvested via photosynthesis

Biotechnology enables people to change biology. Domestication and breeding of plants and animals for food, service, and companionship began millennia ago. Gene editing, from recombinant DNA to CRISPR, is used to make medicines and foods, and is itself half-a-century old. Synthetic biology is working to routinize composition of bioengineered systems of ever-greater complexity

 AIH- May 2025.Billion Asian womens end poverty networking 2006-1976 is most exciting case of Entrepreneurial Revolution (survey Xmas 1976 Economist by dad Norman Macrae & Romano Prodi). In 2007, dad sampled 2000 copies of Dr Yunus Social Business Book: and I started 15 trips to Bangladesh to 2018- many with apprentice journalists. This is a log of what we found - deepened after dad's death in 2010 by 2 kind remembrance parties hoist by Japan Embassy in Dhaka with those in middle of digital support of what happened next. We witnessed a lot of conflicts - i can try and answer question chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk or see AI20s updates at http://povertymuseums.blogspot.com. I live in DC region but see myself as a Diaspoira Scot. Much of dad's libraries we transfreered with Dr Yunus to Glasgow University and enditirs og journals of social business, new economics and innovators of Grameen's virtual free nursing school.
Bangladesh offers best intelligence we have seen for sdgs 5 through 1 up to 2008, Search eg 4 1 oldest edu 4.6 newest edu ; .620th century intelligence - ending poverty of half world without electricity -although Keynes 1936 (last chapter General Theiory: Money, Interest, Employment) asked Economists to take hippocratic oath as the profession that ended extreme poverty, most economists have done the opposite. What's not understandable is how educators failed to catalogue the lessons of the handful who bottom-up empowered villages to collaboratively end poverty. There are mainly 2 inteligences to understand- Borlaug on food science -arguable the forst Biointeligence rising ar1950 on; fazle abed on everything that raised life expectancy in tropical village (zero-electricity) asia from low 40s to 60s (about 7 below norm of living with electricity and telecomes). Between 1972 and late 1990s, Abed's lessons catalogued in this mooc had largely built the nation of Bangladesh and been replicated with help of Unicef's James Grant acroo most tropical asian areas. What's exciting is the valley's mr ad mrs steve jobs invted Fazle Abed to share inteligences 2001 at his 65th birthday party. The Jobs and frineds promised to integrate abed's inteligence into neighborhod university stanfrd which in any event wanted Jobs next great leap the iphone. The Valley told abed to start a university so that women graduates from poor and rich nations could blend inteligence as Abed's bottom of the pyramid vilage began their journey of leapfrog modles now that grid infrastructures were ni longer needed for sdiar and mobile. Abed could also help redesign the millennium goals which were being greenwashed into a shared worldwide system coding frame by 2016. There at Abed's 80th birtday party , the easy bit was checking this mooc was uptodate. The hard bit - what did Abed mean by his wish to headhunt a Taiwanese American to head the university's 3rd decade starting 2020?

3.4 malaria

 june 2021 WHO announces china becomes 40th country to end malaria- i am sure fazle abed would be applauding - chinese village women were the main ones on continent of asia to open source solutions with bangladesh women - brac's networks fighting malaria in bangladesh 

globally killing 400000 people a year, malaria can be described as a poverty disease particularly targeting infants 

as this science article clarifies notable steps in china's malaria ending journey:

 30 million cases in the 1940s, including 300,000 deaths, to zero in 2017 onwards.

China launched a program to identify new malaria drugs in the late 1960s. As part of that effort, pharmaceutical chemist Tu Youyou screened traditional Chinese medicine concoctions for compounds active against malaria, eventually isolating artemisinin from sweet wormwood (Artemisia annua). Artemisinin became the key compound in the front-line drugs now used against malaria and won Tu a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2015. China was also among the countries pioneering the use of insecticide-treated nets in the 1980s.

ENDING LAST CASES ALWAYS DIFFICULT- INNOVATION BY CHINA

 Annual case numbers dropped over the years, reaching roughly 5000 annually in the late 1990s. In 2012, the country initiated a push to eliminate malaria with a “1-3-7” strategy, allowing local health facilities 1 day to report a malaria diagnosis, 3 days to investigate the case, and 7 days to implement countermeasures. In recent years, Chinese scientists have developed genetics-based approaches to track drug resistance and to distinguish indigenous cases from imported ones...To win certification a program must be demonstrated to prevent the reestablishment of malaria, a particular challenge because China shares borders with three countries where the disease is endemic: Myanmar, Thailand, and Laos.
