  Analysis of Privacy Protection Methods for DNA Motif Finding Abstract DNA motif finding is a repetitive expressive sequence fragment that found in given DNA sequence sets and its precise location is of significance to fully comprehend the regulation mechanism of genetic expression. Motif finding is the key to grasp the mechanism of genetic transcriptional regulation, however, the security and privacy issues of motif finding are so overwhelming that we must to pay more attention to it. In our paper, we simply overviewed the methods for protecting motif finding privacy from three broad perspectives: Controlled access, anonymity method, and ε -differential privacy. Keywords:  DNA Motif Finding; Privacy Protection; Privacy Disclosure Introduction The implementation of the genome project makes DNA sequence analysis become a top priority for Bioinformatics. Sequence alignment and motif finding are the two main directions of biological sequence analysis. DNA sequence motif is the s...

  Corrosion Residue Debris Left by Implant Materials to the Patient’s Body Abstract In the field of biomaterial science, the corrosion of metallic implants in the body cannot be avoided so the selection of biocompatible and corrosion resistant materials is so important, whereas the corrosion can decrease the lifetime of implants. Human body represents a very aggressive corrosive environment to metallic implants. Although some pure or commonly known alloys as implants can be used in combination with the body when used alone, they can cause problems if used in places where material pair is used without observing the electrochemical potential difference between them. As a result, electrochemical corrosion will happen. A Battery formation due to electrochemical potential difference between materials and subsequent electron transfer increases the amount of debris that breaks from metal in the body environment. Debris formation and their effects on the human bodyare the initial reason fo...

  Theory of Stress-Anxiety-Sleep Disorders-Neural Damage Cyclic Chain and the Progression of Parkinson’s Disease Abstract “Parkinson’ disease”  is a neurologic complex disease that affect the functionality if the brain modifying the neural connectivity due to cell death, that still don’t have cure. All actual medication and procedures available today only help to improve the quality of life of the patients. The main objective of this research paper is to conclude a theory for the relation of  “Stress”, “Anxiety”  and  “Sleep disorders”  and an additional factor identify as “neural damage”, and relation between them and others additional factors like genetic disorders with the progression of “Parkinson’s disease”, supported with many published research papers that are currently available, personal interviews with PD patients, caregivers, PD families, neurologists, others peoplesinvolves in their PD health team, and my own experience as a Biomedical Engineeri...
