Discoveries in physics, chemistry, biology, and cosmology over the past few decades have given new life to what was once considered a dead enterprise. Read more 👉 Link in comment

Next in our 2024 round-up is some cutting-edge research from SFU Physics professor Nancy Forde and PhD grad Chapin Korosec! The team developed the first artificial motor device created with proteins from nature. “The Lawnmower” is self-propelling, using enzymes to digest and convert the protein it “eats” into energy. Molecular motors exist in all living organisms and projects like this help us better understand exactly how they work. https://ow.ly/Zo6R50UoBVU

In science the trick is to pinpoint the empirically answerable questions. Around 1900 physics realized that the “cosmic ether” was not testable, so they dropped it. In biology they dropped the “life force” of Henri Bergson, because it was not testable. Even Einstein gave up on trying to understand quantum phenomena in classical terms. Empirical testability allows us to sweep away speculations, and this simplifies things immensely.

About electricity and being a human being.. By this era a lot of different mechanisms are described to influence the bodily functions in a holistic way. We know of the 👉Genome , the overall sum of genetic sequences in the living organism 👉Proteome, the sum of all proteine bindings present in the living tissues 👉Micribiome the sum of bacteria ling in and on the living organism 👉The Mycbiome , the some of all yeast and fungi in and on the living organism 👉The Virome, the sum off all virus in and on the living organism 👉The senome, the sum of all cell intelligence/ awarenes of cells of their environment and the possibility to self regulate in this environment in addapted manners learned from previuos encounters added op through the body (John Torday et al) 👉The electrome , the sum of all electyrical activity in the cells used for comunication and information exchange. The last to kids on the block ar the Electrome and the Senome , which are used to proof that biology is part of Physics and is fully functioning according the laws of physics. The Senome is in depth described by Balsuka and torday et al. The elctrome is an other component that receives a lot of scientific attention lately. In 2016 a nice opinion pie about the elctrome was published through Taylor and Francis.. https://lnkd.in/emE3bR-Q In the meantime more scientific research is done to emphasise the impact of electric currents in our physiology. We Are Electric: The New Science of Our Body’s Electrome By Sally Adee https://lnkd.in/e5UdbhFm Overall conclussion: Biology is not something that stands apart from physics, it totally agrees with all aspects of physics. https://t.me/embryologisch

Day 25: #Quantum30 Challenge Did you know that quantum physics and biology are coming together in a fascinating field called "quantum biology"? 🌱 This emerging area explores how quantum mechanics might influence biological processes, from chemical bonding to the sense of smell! In a recent video, speaker Philip Ball dives into the history and potential of quantum biology, dating back to Neils Bohr's ideas in 1932. From there, physicists like Max Delbrück and Erwin Schrödinger have paved the way for understanding how quantum effects could impact life itself. Key topics covered include: - The role of quantum mechanics in chemical bonding and molecule formation - How quantum effects might influence processes like proton and electron transfer - The potential for quantum entanglement in biological systems, like bird navigation and photosynthesis While there's much excitement about the possibilities of quantum biology, there are still many debates and challenges ahead. Watch the video and join the conversation about the future of quantum biology! #Science #QuantumBiology #Innovation #QuantumComputingIndia
