For all humanity’s high-falutin’ knowledge, our brains can get messed up pretty easily – signals moving from one neuron to another only send a full message 40% of the time. And what better way to amp up the rate of transmission than building a computer circuit from neurons? Researchers in Israel have done just that – they grew tiny neurons on a computer circuit around which they sent signals. The researchers think that these brain-cell circuits could lead to a connection between computers and the nervous system. Even our sense of superiority could be better with computers in our heads…

To the best of my knowledge the pterodactyle was a reptile, not specifically a dinosaur.
nah, still has to dump that heat in the environment with that micro fridge. could be using a bigger radiator or sink
"Pint-sized refrigerators can blast much more coolness that the conventional method"
You dont move 'cool energy' you remove heat.
Boiler Up!
Hmm, I wonder if the "red LED" used to study those wrinkles was your typical high-efficiency InGaAlP version.
Ahh so many items that I could care less about. Not that they aren't important, I just know I'll probably never hear about anyone of these ever again.
