From quantum physics to quantum souls (3)

|

Conclusion: The quantized energy-dependent creation of microRNAs links the anti-entropic virucidal energy of sunlight to food energy-dependent pheromone-controlled differences in all morphological and behavioral diversity via sympatric speciation. Food odors and pheromones biophysically constrain viral latency. VoteVets.org …a VoteVets.org spokesman told The Washington Post that the group had 20,000 members, including 1,000 veterans of the … From quantum physics to quantum souls (3)

The eternal significance of microRNAs (8)

|

Use of definitions in attempts to explain any aspect of species-specific biophysically constrained cell type differentiation and aging has been replaced by the use of model systems of biological processes.  Biological processes can be compared to so-called “evolutionary processes” to show that only biological processes need to be considered in the context of Darwin’s “conditions … The eternal significance of microRNAs (8)

Irreconcilable differences: food energy vs de novo assembly

|

Developmental dynamics and contemporary evolutionary psychology: status quo or irreconcilable views? Reply to Bjorklund (2003), Krebs (2003), Buss and Reeve (2003), Crawford (2003), and Tooby et Al. (2003). The authors argue that evolutionary psychology currently offers no coherent framework for how to integrate genetic, environmental, and experiential factors into a theory of behavioral or cognitive … Irreconcilable differences: food energy vs de novo assembly

Expunging the distinguished public

|

Royal Society Expunges Public From Evo Record Many of the attendee-participants were, in fact, more distinguished than many of the actual speakers. So the audience came to be heard as well as to listen. But the official recording (now posted) has been wiped clean of public comment — the most robust part of the meeting … Expunging the distinguished public

Energy-dependent RNA methylation (7)

|

“…viral latency is responsible for life-long pathogenesis and mortality risk…” – Lieberman (2016) My comment: Energy-dependent RNA-mediated amino acid substitutions are responsible for life-long healthy longevity and decreased mortality risk. See for comparison: How cancer was created by evolution Excerpt 1) But even though it is evolutionary processes that have made cancer such a problem, … Energy-dependent RNA methylation (7)

Youyou Tu is the 12th women awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (2015) for her discoveries concerning a novel therapy against Malaria. Historical perspective: Lasker~DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award Excerpt: Tu discovered a passage in the Handbook of Prescriptions for Emergencies (340 CE) by Ge Hong that referenced Qinghao’s malaria-healing capacity. It said … Non-mainstream scientist shares Nobel prize in Medicine

Nutrient-dependent RNA interference

|

This David Sloan Wilson interview of Eva Jablonka reflects the desperation of evolutionary theorists. Jablonka claims there is no need to re-define “evolution.” She also places all prior claims about evolution into the context of “symbolic evolution.” She attests to the fact that “evolution” (e.g., change over time) will probably be re-defined to fit whatever … Nutrient-dependent RNA interference

Understanding cell type differentiation

The Wisdom of the Fly Crowds by Ed Yong Excerpt: “This is a landmark study of collective behaviour,” says Iain Couzin… “Never before has it been possible to unweave the intricate coding of social behaviour during collective decision-making.” When it comes to fruit flies, scientists…  can really start to understand the origins of collective behaviour—how … Understanding cell type differentiation
