Electrolytes induce long-range orientational order and free energy changes in the H-bond network of bulk water Reported as: A single ion impacts a million water molecules See also: Remembering Evolution Visionary Mae-Wan Ho Excerpt: Mae-Wan Ho believed that “water is the medium of life,” that “[q]uantum coherent water underlies the quantum coherence of organisms.” … Millions of water molecules vs years of evolution
Update: 2/28/22 Peptide synthesis at the origin of life 11/13/20 was linked to the origin of information via Footprints of a Singular 22-Nucleotide RNA Ring at the Origin of Life 4/25/20 two days after former President Trump linked God’s Creation of sunlight and humidity to weakened coronavirus pathology.

Variants near CHRNA3/5 and APOE have age- and sex-related effects on human lifespan Excerpt: The signal we observe is driven by rs429358, a non-synonymous Cys112Arg variant, which defines the ε4 allele and which has not previously been shown to be the causal variant influencing lifespan.

A programming language for living cells Thanks to Fabricio Paes de Medeiros for calling attention to this example of an engineered innate immune system. The immune system links the epigenetic landscape to the physical landscape of supercoiled DNA, which protects the organized genomes of all living genera from virus-driven entropy. Excerpt: The sensors can detect … Creating and/or programming the immune system
Their report indicates that these researchers never learned to differentiate between epigenetic effects on RNA-mediated cell type differentiation compared to the experience-dependent affects on behavior of amino acid substitutions. Experience Affects Critical Period Plasticity in the Visual Cortex through an Epigenetic Regulation of Histone Post-Translational Modifications Excerpt: We show that the early exposure of rat … Confusing effects and affects of visual input
In the narrative of this presentation on RNA mediated molecular epigenetics and virus driven entropy, I mentioned that Cori Bargmann is scheduled to deliver a lecture entitled “Genes, neurons, circuits and behavior: an integrated approach in a compact brain.” An integrated approach will help others understand what is currently known about how ecological variation leads … Selective reporting of inferences: examples of pseudoscience
“There is incontrovertible evidence that Alzheimer’s Disease has a dormant microbial component. We can’t keep ignoring all of the evidence” –Professor Douglas Kell, Manchester University Experts Say There’s a Herpes-Alzheimer’s Link Excerpt: …herpes has been linked to damage in the central nervous system and the limbic system, which is associated with mental decline and personality … Ignore the evidence: Rachel Feltman
Manfred Eigen (born May 9, 1927) is a German biophysical chemist who won the 1967 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for work on measuring fast chemical reactions. People are still touting his neo-Darwinian nonsense nearly 50 years later. It sometimes seems that nothing is known to the pseudoscientists about how the RNA-mediated innate immune system links … Energy dependent RNA-mediated immunity (5)
Viral ‘fossils’ in our DNA may help us fight infection Excerpt: The work suggests that these viral fossils probably played a key role in the evolution of our species… My comment: The work shows that Greg Bear accurately portrayed virus-driven energy theft when he linked it to the creation of new species. In 1999 and … Energy dependent RNA-mediated immunity (3)
Re-interpreting long-term evolution experiments — Is delayed adaptation an example of historical contingency or a consequence of intermittent selection? Excerpt: “… the series of events used to explain adaptation in the short-transfer LTEE (and in speciation) might need to be revised. The amplification model supported by this article has already be proposed as a means … Science vs semantics
