But living on a world whose surface is around 70 percent water can sometimes make it hard to keep the two separate. While wrapping your device in a waterproof case will provide protection, they add bulk and can sometimes affect usability. California-based company Liquipel claims to have developed a hydrophobic nanocoating one thousand times thinner than a human hair that can be applied to a smartphone to protect it from accidental spills without affecting its functionality. <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/liquipel-waterproof-smartphone-nanocoating/21101/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/scienceandeducation/" style="float: left; ">SCIENCE AND EDUCATION</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/ion-proton-sequencer-decodes-dna/21092/">Ion Proton sequencer decodes DNA fast and on the cheap</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jan-belezina/">Jan Belezina</a></p> <p><em>14:11 January 12, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180643im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/ion-proton-sequencer-decodes-dna/21092/pictures">4 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/ion-proton-sequencer-decodes-dna/21092/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180643im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/ionprotonsequencer.jpg" title="Ion Proton Sequencer by Life Technologies is designed to sequence the entire human genome ..." alt="Ion Proton Sequencer by Life Technologies is designed to sequence the entire human genome ..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>The mapping of the human genome, announced at the White House back in 2000, had immense impact on biomedical research. It allowed us to gain insights into how biological information is encoded in the genome, helped us understand the biological mechanisms behind cancer and hereditary diseases and enabled us to look much deeper into the history of our own species. These are milestone achievements for humanity as a whole, but they have little or no direct impact on everyday medical treatment. That could be about to change, however, as Life Technologies introduces the Benchtop Ion Proton Sequencer - a machine that may finally deliver the power of genetics into the hands of ordinary doctors. <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/ion-proton-sequencer-decodes-dna/21092/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/electronics/" style="float: left; ">ELECTRONICS</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/makerbot-replicator-3d-printer/21078/">MakerBot unveils its new 3D printer, the Replicator</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/author/paul-ridden/">Paul Ridden</a></p> <p><em>21:25 January 12, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180643im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/makerbot-replicator-3d-printer/21078/#comments">8 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180643im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/makerbot-replicator-3d-printer/21078/pictures">14 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/makerbot-replicator-3d-printer/21078/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180643im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/replicator3dprinter.jpg" title="MakerBot has unveiled its latest desktop-friendly 3D printer at CES 2012, the Replicator -..." alt="MakerBot has unveiled its latest desktop-friendly 3D printer at CES 2012, the Replicator -..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>The folks at MakerBot Industries have not exactly been resting on their laurels since causing a stir at CES last year with the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180643/http://www.gizmag.com/makerbot-thing-o-matic--the-diy-3d-printer/17516/" target="_blank">Thing-o-Matic</a> 3D printer.
