The Biologic Institute.

I have been following Douglas Axe's work with interest (see here and here) so I was very keen to look at the website of the Biologic Institute. This is the research institute that is funded by the Centre for Science and Culture which Douglas Axe is in charge of.

On the research page there are reports of what they have been working on and descriptions of the research which has been or is shortly to be submitted for peer review. "The difficulty of interconverting the functions of structurally similar enzymes" is one of the areas in which I will be interested.

The sad part of the story is why such an institute is needed at all. The work that Douglas Axe has done and the systems that he has set up should be supported in the usual way without the need to set up a separately funded institute.
