we all know we have genes and these genes can be switched on or off but they don't act in isolation they form complex. information sloan's around these combated people doing. biologists figure out more genes for each other's allman they draw on these network diagrams wiring diagrams it can computation and so there's a lot of information processing in those now and then cell signal each of their signalling molecules. same information combines the other as this great information present system out here between areas. everybody knows about that and it doesn't stop it comes right on through each house systems why don't we scale. and i think we're all these days obsessed by power since a case in point. the chain i embarrass is a central part of the planetary system the planter trico system they viruses get everywhere out there like my body could antigovernment so little bits of information that a pasta around and are essential over the health of the planet. and so i have to say. a rat's. time entry ecosystem of life is the original wildlife web it's a wave of information. extents of planetary

i'm gene otani. lawmakers from japan's ruling parties have backed a number of tax reforms designed to kick start the economy and get businesses to become more environmentally friendly. they say the measures can offset the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic and help japan hit its long-term goal of carbon neutrality. the liberal democratic party and coalition partner komeito have adopted a package for fiscal 2021 starting in april. it includes a freeze for tax hikes on land, including residential and commercial plots. it also extends tax breaks for eco-friendly vehicles for two years. the package includes a range of incentives for firms to work toward targets set by the administration of prime minister suga yoshihide. and cut japan's greenhouse gas emissions net zero by 2050. firms will be rewarded for embracing innovative and eco-friendly technology in production lines, and companies that go digital by using cloud services or other options will be eligible for tax benefits. the government plans to

artificial intelligence, genetics and gene editing, or quantum computing? i have investments in all three of them, and i would add, you have mentioned three of the four that i am very keen on, but the fourth that you have missed out on is blockchain and smart contracts. but if i were to pick a single one which i think, you know, you are asking me, i would go for synthetic biology. you know, the genetics, life science issue because — for two reasons. one is the technical progress in life science is so spectacular. i've believed in moore's law all my life, that's a factor of 32 a decade, when we did selects of the gene sequencing company, we managed to reduce the cost of doing the human genome from $10,000 to under $1,000 now. so the breakthroughs that are coming along in life sciences, especially molecular cell biology, especially now with synthetic biology, i think we'll have the biggest effect on our society. herman hauser, it has been a pleasure having you on hardtalk. thank you very much indeed. thank you. hello there. the next couple of days, we're go

i know gene is going, what did you say? why is he cutting me off? he'll be really good when he gets a little bit of experience. gene, let's just really briefly talking about how remarkable this really is. that scientists, doctors, across the world, across the world since early march have all been working on this one thing and we saw it first in britain. we have seen it in other countries. now it's coming to america. we had heard early on wise advice from people saying, don't be too optimistic. this should take usually three or four years. it's going to be a long time, but just an absolute wonder of science and a hope in the middle of a very cold, dark winter some hope that this spring we may actually be able to start returning to normal. >> it is -- it is absolutely astounding and an incredible achievement. and, you know, i think the record for developing a vaccine start to finish before now is like four years and so to have this done within a year, you know, not just the research tested proved and deployed within a year is just phenomenal. and the

the spike protein that make the surface of this widest and any mutation that come into the spite of genes is of critical importance mainly for the transmissive transmitted transmission of this wires so if we look onto those specific mutation 2 of those mutations ordered critical side that allow the widest to bind to oversell and turning to other body so that is making the virus more infectious more trust missable and i don't 70 percent higher transmission has been reported for this white as well that is really something that we have to look very carefully so it does not really dominate not only in the u.k. but beyond that let's talk about transmission of the head of germany's disease control agency was asked today whether he thinks that this new virus strain is already in the country here let's take a look at what he said if you just use of all we know that this strain in the united kingdom was 1st detected in september we also know that it was found in the netherlands and denmark this means there is a likelihood that this strain has already reached germany undetected from the i think the

the vaccine uses a gene covid-19 vaccine astrazeneca. the vaccine uses a gene from the spike shaped protein on the surface of coronavirus. this is put inside a modified harmless virus. the vaccine instructs human cells to make the spiked protein, which grants the immune system to create antibodies, which can recognise and destroy coronavirus. it stimulates t cells, which should destroy cells that have become infected. so just which should destroy cells that have become infected. sojust how effective is the vaccine? the latest estimate is it gets 70% protection against covid three weeks after the first dose. the nhs will hold back giving the second dose of all covid vaccines until 12 weeks so more people can get protected. the most pragmatic thing to do is to give as many at—risk people as possible the first dose of the vaccine because we know from three weeks after that first dose there is a very good level of protection and nobody in the clinical trials at that point after their first dose was in hospital with covid or experienced sev

this can help to have therapies to stem that immune response and target those genes, and secondly it start to assess at a population level who is most at risk. i think we are in a great position scientifically wise. we have testing, antibody tests, we have vaccines, at least three safe and effective. we have therapeutics, dexamethasone and better ways of managing patients, and also now we have genetic sequencing work coming out actually helping to explain whe explain why we have patterns of disease that otherwise may not have been able to be explained at the face -- at face value. >> professor sridhar, this has been terrifically helpful. thank you so much. >>> and next, ten years on from the start of the arab spring, how much has changed for that part of the world? for better or for worse. that story when we come back. may your holidays glow bright and all your dreams take flight. visit your local mercedes-benz dealer today for exceptional lease and financing offers at the mercedes-benz winter event. do you have a life insurance policy you no longer need? now you can sell your policy
