See: Learning from Bacteria about Natural Information Processing 10/15/09 The author of this monograph, Eshel Ben-Jacob was a biophysicist who modeled cognition using bacterial organization. That concept was extended to answer the question “What is Life?” in the context of Panksepp’s decoding of primal affective experiences. Indeed, in the case of higher animals we know … Patented Creation vs Evolution of Disease (1)
See for review: A Mathematical Model Links Quantum Physics to Quantum Souls (1) See for comparison: Zaugg Lab We are applying and developing computational biology tools for integrating large-scale biological ‘omics data to address questions in personalised genomics. The Zaugg Lab ignores everything known to serious scientists about energy-dependent top-down causation, which is the only way to link quantum … A Mathematical Model Links Quantum Physics to Quantum Souls (2)
6/14/13 Nutrient-dependent/pheromone-controlled adaptive evolution: a model ….the model represented here is consistent with what is known about the epigenetic effects of ecologically important nutrients and pheromones on the adaptively evolved behavior of species from microbes to man. Minimally, this model can be compared to any other factual representations of epigenesis and epistasis for determination of … Epigenetic facts vs variable recombination theories
See also: Pseudoscientists hate what science explains (2) Summary: In addition to germline silencing via information transfer to the physical landscape of supercoiled DNA, multicopy transgene arrays are linked from changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance to variation in their somatic expression level. That fact helps to establish the difference between healthy longevity and pathology … Pseudoscientists hate what science explains! (3)
Regularly Whiffing Essential Oils Can Retrain Lost Sense of Smell It’s not entirely clear how olfactory training works on a neurological level. Olfactory training links the experience-dependent de novo creation of G protein-coupled receptors to supercoiled DNA. Conserved molecular mechanisms link food odors and pheromones from the innate immune system to the physiology of reproduction. … De novo gene creation: Ignoring the experimental evidence
Evolutionary Constraints in the β-Globin Cluster: The Signature of Purifying Selection at the δ-Globin (HBD) Locus and Its Role in Developmental Gene Regulation Conclusion: … the results here presented indicate that purifying selection is driving not only HBD evolution but also its neighbor pseudogene, HBBP1. In the light of recent advances in the characterization of … Polycombic ecological adaptation as a science, not a theory (2)
From Fertilization to Adult Sexual Behavior (1996) In our section on Molecular epigenetics, we wrote: Small intranuclear proteins also participate in generating alternative splicing techniques of pre-mRNA and, by this mechanism, contribute to sexual differentiation in at least two species, Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans (Adler and Hajduk, 1994; de Bono, Zarkower, and Hodgkin, 1995; … Biophotonics, glycobiology, quantized biodiversity (2)
Historical perspective: From Fertilization to Adult Sexual Behavior Excerpt: Small intranuclear proteins also participate in generating alternative splicing techniques of pre-mRNA and, by this mechanism, contribute to sexual differentiation in at least two species, Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans (Adler and Hajduk, 1994; de Bono, Zarkower, and Hodgkin, 1995; Ge, Zuo, and Manley, 1991; Green, … Biophotonics, glycobiology, quantized biodiversity
A neural circuit encoding sexual preference in humans Excerpt: We anticipate the identification of a core neural circuit for sexual preferences to be a starting point for further sophisticated investigations into the neural principles of sexual behavior and particularly of its aberrations. My comment: They link sexual orientation in yeasts to humans but fail to … MicroRNAs and sexual orientation
