Enrico Fermi est sans doute l'un des physiciens les plus influents du XXe siècle, bien que son nom reste souvent dans l'ombre des figures comme Einstein ou Bohr. Pourtant, c'est lui qui a su relier théorie et expérience, calcul et intuition, en posant les fondements de plusieurs domaines majeurs : la physique nucléaire, la mécanique quantique statistique, la physique des particules, et même certaines approches de l'astrophysique moderne. Dans cette vidéo, on revient sur la trajectoire exceptionnelle de ce chercheur italien, depuis ses débuts à Rome jusqu'à son rôle central dans le projet Manhattan.Au fil du récit, on explore les grandes étapes de sa carrière : la création de la statistique de Fermi-Dirac, la découverte du rôle des neutrons lents, l'invention du premier réacteur nucléaire, ses théories sur les interactions faibles ou encore sa position face au développement de la bombe H. On y découvre un homme capable de concevoir des équations puissantes mais aussi de construire, avec rigueur, les expériences les plus décisives du siècle.Mais au-delà de ses découvertes scientifiques, Fermi soulève des questions plus vastes : quel est le rôle du scientifique face au pouvoir ? Peut-on faire avancer la connaissance sans s'interroger sur ses conséquences ? Et que nous dit son célèbre paradoxe sur notre place dans l'univers ? Un portrait à la fois historique, scientifique et profondément humain d'un homme qui a changé notre manière de comprendre le réel.

Episode 335 Exercise has been shown to shrink tumours by 60 per cent. A new study shows another link between regular exercise and cancer prevention, this time revealing that muscle cells may outcompete cancer cells for energy - basically starving them. We explore the links between metabolism and glucose - with the caveat that so far this has only been demonstrated in mice, in a small study. The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS may be even weirder than we thought. Ever since we spotted this comet from another star system, scientists have been studying every inch of it. And no - it's not an alien spacecraft. But it does seem to be home to surprising amounts of chemicals like carbon dioxide and methanol - essential ingredients for life. Could this shed light on the origin of life in the universe? A 100-year-old debate between two titans of physics has finally been settled. In the 1920s, Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr butted heads about the nature of light. Einstein said light is a particle. Bohr said it's both a particle and a wave. They came up with an experiment to settle the argument - the trouble is, they had no way to run it. Now, 100 years later, we finally have the technology to perform the test - and the winner is… Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet, with guests Alexandra Thompson, Alex Wilkins and Jacob Aron.

Et si notre vision moderne de l'atome n'existait pas ? Si les électrons, les couches d'énergie, ou même la mécanique quantique n'avaient jamais été formulés ainsi ? Derrière les grandes théories du XXe siècle se trouve une figure majeure mais parfois méconnue : Niels Bohr. C'est lui qui, en 1913, propose un modèle révolutionnaire de l'atome — avec des électrons en orbites quantifiées — capable d'expliquer enfin les spectres lumineux, là où la physique classique échouait. Une idée qui ouvre la voie à toute la physique quantique moderne.Mais Bohr ne s'est pas arrêté là. Au cœur de l'institut de Copenhague qu'il fonde, il invente une nouvelle façon de faire de la science : collective, dialoguée, ouverte aux désaccords. Il élabore le principe de complémentarité, s'oppose à Einstein dans des débats historiques, et participe à la naissance de l'interprétation de Copenhague. Sa vision, à la fois rigoureuse et philosophique, redéfinit les règles du jeu en physique : l'observation devient inséparable de la théorie, le langage classique ne suffit plus, et l'incertitude n'est plus un défaut, mais une propriété fondamentale.Enfin, Bohr traverse le XXe siècle en acteur engagé. Lors des guerres mondiales, il prend position, protège des réfugiés scientifiques, rejoint le projet Manhattan à contrecœur, puis plaide pour une gouvernance mondiale de l'énergie nucléaire. Toute sa vie, il aura cherché à faire de la science non pas une simple quête de vérité, mais un outil de responsabilité. Comprendre l'atome, pour lui, c'était aussi comprendre notre place dans l'univers — et notre devoir face aux choix qu'impose cette connaissance.

For the last century, physics has been treading along the paths set by the same two theories--quantum theory and general relativity--and, let's face it, it's getting pretty boring. Most scientists are simply chasing decimal points in laboratories, unable to explore the theories at large scales, where serious discrepancies could emerge. The situation is a lot like the one physics was in in 1890, right before Planck, Einstein, and Bohr blew the roof off Newtonian physics. As Vlatko Vedral argues in Portals to a New Reality: Five Pathways to the Future of Physics (Basic Books, 2025), that means we are on the brink of a revolution. Vedral shows how quantum information theory has opened radically new avenues for experiments that could upend physics. They can sound very strange--one essentially involves entangling a human with Schrödinger's cat--but they lay bare elements of our theories that are particularly problematic, such as the widespread belief that nothing truly exists unless it is observed. At present these experiments are thought experiments, albeit fascinating ones. But nothing, save inertia and a lack of ambition, stands in our way.

“Science isn't about showing off. It's about attending to unusual data, unusual evidence”, says astrophysicist Avi Loeb.“We can only learn new things from anomalies, from what doesn't line up.”Paying attention to anomalies is precisely what he does as head of the Galileo Project at Harvard, whose purpose is to search for evidence of extraterrestrial technology.Loeb is frustrated. Almost all the research money that is allocated to the search for extraterrestrial life goes to projects for picking up radio signals and scanning for molecular fingerprints of microbes on exoplanets.“It's like lonely people waiting for a phone call. Nobody might call you”, says Loeb.“And personally, I think microbes are boring. I am more interested in intelligent life. Yes, there are more microbes, but it is arguably easier to detect evidence of technology.”Loeb became famous in 2017 when he suggested that the first detected interstellar object traversing our solar system, named 1I/Oumuamua, might be artificial because of its strange behavior.His suggestion was not well received in the scientific community. He was academically attacked by many colleagues.Now, the third interstellar object ever detected, 3I/Atlas, is hurling past the planets in our home system at breakneck speed. This visitor also features very odd properties. It doesn't look like a comet. It seems to be extremely large, it doesn't have the classic cometary tail, its glow is preceding it, the composition of its coma is unique, and its trajectory is in line with the plane of the planets.“If you were to construct a spacecraft that were to visit this solar system, you would make it go in the plane of the planets”, Loeb says.Yet mainstream astronomers call it a comet, or more specifically a “black“ comet.“It's like having only seen zebras and then suddenly see an elephant and go: ‘Look, a zebra without stripes, and with a trunk'.”Loeb has developed a scale for assessing whether a space object is natural or artificial, where 0 means decidedly natural and 10 means decidedly artificial. Loeb has given 3I/Atlas a 4, the same score he gave 1I/Oumuamua.It might drop on the scale – or climb – as more data is collected. By the end of October 2025 we probably know more, because that is when the object will be at its closest to the sun.Avi Loeb has always been an outlier in the scientific community, he says. He would “trade everything” he has of modern life to go back 95 years, to the time of quantum pioneers like Bohr and Heisenberg.“Because they were open-minded and willing to replace an old worldview with something completely new.”Science is more rigid today, he feels. Paradoxically, this may have to do with the fact that there are so many more scientists today. With a large enough population, ideas tend to regress to the mean.Avi Loeb isn't afraid of airing ideas that would appear outrageous in conventional quarters. Have there been advanced civilizations on earth millions of years ago? Could our species have been genetically manipulated by interstellar visitors a long, long time ago? Loeb is open to both propositions.“We tend to think we are first. But it's fully plausible that there was a technologically advanced civilization millions of years ago that was destroyed in a major catastrophe.”The Galileo ProjectPersonal page at HarvardEssays on MediumThe Book Interstellar (2024)The Book Extraterrestrial (2022)

Host Sebastian Hassinger interviews Alexandre Blais, professor of physics at the Universite de Sherbrooke and scientific director of the Insitut Quantique. Alexandre discusses his academic journey, starting from his master's and PhD work in Sherbrooke, his move to Yale, and his collaborations with both theorists and experimentalists. He outlines the development of circuit QED (quantum electrodynamics) and its foundational role in the modern superconducting qubit landscape. Blais emphasizes the interplay between fundamental physics and technological progress in quantum computing, highlighting both academic contributions and partnerships with industry. He also describes the evolution and mission of Institut Quantique, stressing its role in bridging academia and the quantum industry by training talent and fostering startups in Sherbrooke, Quebec. Finally, Blais reflects on the dual promise of quantum computing—as a tool for scientific discovery and as a long-term commercial technology.Key Themes and Points1. Early Career and Path into Quantum ComputingAlexandre Blais began his quantum computing journey during his master's at Sherbrooke, inspired by a popular science article by Serge Haroche that laid out the argument for why quantum computers would never work.He pursued quantum studies at Sherbrooke despite a lack of local experts, showing early initiative and risk-taking.2. Transition to Yale and Circuit QEDBlais joined Yale for his postdoc, attracted by the strong theory–experiment collaboration.The Yale group pioneered "circuit QED," adapting ideas from cavity QED (single atoms in magnetic cavities) to superconducting circuits, enabling new ways to read out and control qubits.Circuit QED became the backbone of superconducting qubit technology, notably enabling the transmon qubit (now a dominant architecture).Collaborated with figures like prior guests of the podcast Steve Girvin and Rob Schoelkopf, and was a postdoc along with Jay Gambetta and Andreas Wallraff.3. Superconducting Qubits and Research FocusMost of Blais's work has centered on superconducting qubits, particularly on understanding and extending coherence times, reducing errors, and improving fabrication/design.Emphasizes the complex, nonlinear, and rich physics even of single-qubit systems (e.g., challenges of dispersive readout and unexpected phenomena like multiphoton resonances).Notes the continuing importance of deep, fundamental research despite growing industrial and engineering focus.4. Role of Academia vs. IndustryGrowth of corporate investment (Google, IBM, Amazon, Intel) has changed the landscape.Blais argues that universities should focus on pushing the scientific frontier and training talent, not on building commercial-scale quantum computers.Academic groups can pursue high-risk, high-reward research and deeper understanding of quantum technology's physical underpinnings.5. Institut Quantique and Quebec's Quantum EcosystemBlais leads Institut Quantique, which supports both basic and applied quantum research and has been highly successful in fostering a local quantum startup ecosystem (e.g., SBQuantum, NordQuantique, Qubic).Offers entrepreneurship courses and significant seed grants (even to students and postdocs) to encourage talent retention and company creation in Sherbrooke.Partnership between academia, startups, and public investment has attracted international players like Pasqal and IBM, establishing Sherbrooke as a quantum technology hub.6. Societal and Philosophical ReflectionsFundamental challenge: making increasingly large quantum systems remain quantum despite Bohr's assertion, via the Correspondence principle, that as a quantum system scales it will become classical.Quantum computers are not only future commercial tools—they are already invaluable scientific instruments, enabling new physics via experimental control of complex quantum systems.Blais is optimistic about quantum computing's potential for both discovery and eventual large-scale applications.Main TakeawaysBuilding quantum computers is both a technological and fundamental scientific challenge. Even with commercial interest, deep physical understanding is essential—academic research remains vital.Close collaboration between theorists and experimentalists breeds breakthrough advances. Circuit QED exemplifies this synergy.Quantum research institutes can seed thriving tech ecosystems, if they focus on both talent training and supporting spinouts, as shown by Institut Quantique in Sherbrooke.Quantum computing's greatest early impacts will likely be as scientific instruments, enabling novel experiments and discoveries, before large-scale commercial utility is achieved.Quantum hardware's development continually reveals new, subtle physics; e.g., the decades-long puzzle of dispersive readout reflects the complexity inherent in scaling up quantum technology.Notable Quotes “Quantum computers will, before being commercially useful, be fantastic tools for discoveries.” “What we're trying to do is go against that very fundamental principle—we're trying to build a bigger and bigger system that behaves ever more quantum.” “There is real power in mixing theory and experiment when tackling the challenges of quantum technology.”Listeners will enjoy a blend of scientific storytelling, personal insight, and a blueprint for building world-class quantum research hubs that advance both discovery and innovation.

Hoy, 29 de julio de 2025, se cumplen precisamente cien años de la publicación de un artículo científico que cambiaría la física para siempre. Los físicos sabían desde el año 1900 que algo extraño ocurría en el mundo microscópico: Planck descubrió, a su pesar, que la energía parecía emitirse de forma discontinua, en paquetes o "cuantos". Einstein, por su parte, se dio cuenta de que gracias a estos cuantos se podía entender el efecto fotoeléctrico. Bohr reveló que si la energía estaba "cuantizada" el átomo debía tener niveles, o "pisos", en los cuales había que ubicar a los electrones. En definitiva, se sabía desde el año 1900 que la física tenía que ser cuántica. Sin embargo, a pesar de tener muy claro que los cuantos formaban parte de la física, o al menos de la física microscópica, nadie había conseguido integrarlos en una teoría física totalmente consistente. Todos los modelos cuánticos partían de la física "de toda la vida" y se imponían los cuantos sobre ella de forma arbitraria, en el lugar y el momento en que resolvieran tal o cual problema. Esto cambió el 29 de julio del año 1925. Un joven físico llamado Werner Heisenberg abordó la cuestión de si era posible construir un modelo mecánico que fuese cuántico desde el minuto 1. Para ello necesitaba una definición de las magnitudes físicas fundamentales, como la posición y la velocidad, que tuviera integrados los cuantos. No valía imponerlos después para que los resultados cuadrasen. La posición y la velocidad también tenían que ser cuánticas. ¿Cómo conseguiría deshacer este nudo gordiano? En el programa de hoy conmemoramos el centenario de la mecánica cuántica contándoos esta historia. ¿Qué son los cuantos? ¿Por qué era problemático integrarlos dentro de la física? ¿Y cómo lo logró Heisenberg en su legendario artículo de 1925? En este programa os hablaremos mucho de la historia de la teoría cuántica. Si queréis ampliar lo que os contamos hoy, podéis aprender sobre la teoría de Einstein del efecto fotoeléctrico, de 1905, en el episodio s04e05 de Aparici en Órbita. También podéis aprender más sobre la teoría atómica de Bohr, de 1913, en nuestro pódcast hermano, La Brújula de la Ciencia: os la contamos en detalle en los capítulos s02e31, s02e32 y s02e33.

Avisoverskrifterne udråbte Sparrow Quantum til kvanteteknologiens Nvidia - firmaet hvis chips har revolutioneret AI.Sparrow Quantum har med udgangspunkt i Niels Bohr Instituttet lavet grundforskning om til forretning ved at udvikle en chip, der arbejder med fotonisk kvanteteknologi. Den er slags "lyskanon", der styrer lyset ned på til mindste lyspartikel med meget stor præcision. Det åbner døren til en hel række nye teknologier som for eksempel kvantekommunikation, der er en ny form for sikker kommunikation, som kan sikre mod at kvantecomputere i fremtiden kan bryde vores krypterede koder og information.Det gør Sparrow Quantum til en interessant virksomhed for forsvarsindustrien, og derfor har virksomheden deltaget i Udenrigsministeriets arbejde med kvanteteknologi i regi af NATO.Hør CEO Kurt Stokbro i Sparrow Quantum fortælle historien.Link:https://sparrowquantum.com/

El éxito con Pep Martorell me confirmó que hay lugar para la ciencia en este podcast. Si Kapital está funcionando es porque hago lo que quiero, no lo que me pide la audiencia. A fin de cuentas, ¿qué es la audiencia? ¿La opinión mayoritaria entre unos oyentes? ¿Por qué deberían ellos tener razón y no el resto? ¿No sería una locura organizar las decisiones de la sociedad siguiendo este sistema? Los dos capítulos más escuchados de Kapital, el de Raggio y el de Recuenco, no eran a priori los más pedidos. El éxito es siempre una consecuencia, cuando alguien comparte un producto genuino.Este episodio sobre ciencia y matemáticas es ya uno de mis favoritos de las cuatro temporadas de Kapital. La mecánica cuántica es un concepto complejo (quizá imposible de comprender) pero José Ignacio lo describe con palabras que te permiten acercarte a él. Así arranca Cuántica, su tratado sobre la mayor revolución científica hasta la fecha. “El postulado I de la mecánica cuántica establece que la información que tenemos sobre un sistema físico viene descrita por un objeto matemático que llamamos función de onda. Podemos predecir, por ejemplo, lo que hará un electrón, pero no lo que es un electrón en su esencia más íntima. Tampoco sabremos por qué existe un electrón. Solo sabremos manipular la información que lo describe. Parece difícil de comprender. Repitámoslo: la función de onda contiene toda la información que podemos disponer de un sistema. Toda. Hace falta caminar despacio.”Y esto es lo que escribió el loco de Labatut en Un verdor terrible: “Mira la mecánica cuántica, por ejemplo, la joya de la corona de nuestra especie, la teoría física más precisa, hermosa y con mayor alcance que hemos inventado. Está detrás de internet, de la supremacía de nuestros teléfonos celulares, y ofrece la promesa de un poder computacional solo comparable a la inteligencia divina. Ha transformado nuestro mundo hasta volverlo irreconocible. Sabemos cómo usarla, funciona por una suerte de milagro, y sin embargo no hay un alma en este planeta, nadie vivo o muerto, que realmente la entienda. La mente no puede lidiar con sus paradojas y contradicciones. Es como si la teoría hubiese caído a la Tierra al igual que un monolito proveniente del espacio, y nosotros sencillamente gateamos a su alrededor como simios, jugando con ella, lanzándole piedras y palos, sin ninguna comprensión verdadera.”Kapital es posible gracias a sus colaboradores:⁠Indexa Capital⁠.

Humanity balances between two paths: self-destruction or self-revelation. In this rebroadcast from a popular episode from April 2024, Christine Barrington describes this critical inflection point and argues that dreams awaken us to the realm of purpose and meaning, arguing that every one of us has much to contribute to the path of humanity. Christine begins with James Braid then outlines the complicated history of science and consciousness including how they got separated in the first place, culminating with the philosophy of positivism which is the belief nothing exists that cannot be verified. She notes in contrast that most of the giants of quantum theory were also mystics including Planck (mentioning his book Where Science is Going) and also Einstein, Schrödinger, Heisenberg, Bohr, and Pauli. On the thread of consciousness,  she quotes Carl Jung and his work on the tension of the opposites and synchronicity, also Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ken Wilbur, and Joe Dispenza and the birth of neurophysiology and mindfulness. Christine brings it all together talking about Thomas Campbell and his book My Big TOE and his “theory of everything,” which argues that consciousness is the basis for everything and that we are here on this planet to learn and evolve that consciousness, one person at a time. She plays a quote of Campbell’s about how dreaming gives us information about our selves in that how we react in dreams is how we are. As we learn to be more living and present, then our dreams evolve too. Christine ends by sharing information about Thomas Campbell’s organization, the Center for the Unification of Science and Consciousness CUSAC.org. BIO: Christine Barrington has worked as a psychotherapist and transformational coach and is a seeker who has invested years searching for answers underlying the challenges of human existence.  Here are links to Christine’s previous Dream Journal shows: https://ksqd.org/dreaming-a-new-future-through-conscious-evolution-with-christine-barrington/ and https://ksqd.org/transformational-dreamwork-with-christine-barrington/ You can listen to a summary of Tom Campbell’s ideas here: https://youtu.be/uEuOGCEmiTg?si=tpp-ekVYiGwfR1I0 and listen to much more on his YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@twcjr44 This show, episode number 307, was broadcast on April 25, 2025 at KSQD.org, community radio of Santa Cruz.

Today on Online for Authors, guest-host Carole O'Neill interviews Audrey Gale, author of the book The Human Trial. Audrey Gale long dreamed of being a writer, but never anticipated the circuitous road she'd take to get there. After twenty-plus years in the banking industry, she grew tired of corporate gamesmanship and pursued her master's in fiction writing at the University of Southern California.   Her first novel, a legal thriller entitled The Sausage Maker's Daughters, was published under the name A.G.S. Johnson. The novel explores one woman's struggle to find her place amidst the upheaval of the radical 1960s. Her second, The Human Trial, is the first book in a medical-thriller trilogy inspired by Gale's own experiences with the gap between traditional medicine and approaches based on the findings of the great physicists of the 20th Century, like Einstein and Bohr. Both The Sausage Maker's Daughters and The Human Trial incorporate Gale's fascination with historical and scientific research, and always with women finding their places.   Gale lives in Los Angeles with her husband and dogs where she is found hiking the Santa Monica Mountains every chance she gets.   In her book review, Carole stated that The Human Trial showed that a small number of high school students graduate early and get accepted into a college program of their dreams. Very few graduate high school at 16 years old and go on to get a full-ride at Harvard University. However, Randy Archer, the son of a steel-mill worker in Pennsylvania, does just that.   Audrey, the author of The Human Trial, takes you back to the 1920s, against the backdrop of The Great Depression, and introduces us to Archer as he is still living at home with his father and older brothers. They all expect him to follow them to a life in the steel mill. He has another idea, but no financial way to fulfill that dream.   Gale describes how Archer defies the odds, with the help of his high school counselor and her friend at Harvard. She convinces Archer he will be mentored alone the way to a degree at the prestigious university unavailable to many.   During his years as a graduate student studying to become a pathology researcher, he meets a physics student, Adam Wakefield, working on his PhD. He's developed a much-advanced microscope which allows the two students to discover a way to offer a non-traditional healing method to terminal patients.   There is, of course, a love interest that Archer can't quite understand. Why such a beautiful girl from Boston's Beacon Hill would be interested in him, stymies him. Gale keeps you believing they will make the perfect marriage, or will they?   The Human Trial has something for everyone: medical science, academic scheming, blue-collared families vs. Boston Brauhmans, and an impossible secret discovery everyone wants a piece of. This is a book that will keep you pulling for the underdog until the final pages.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Audrey Gale Website: https://audreygaleauthor.com/ FB: @Audrey Gale Author IG: @audreygaleauthor   Purchase The Human Trial on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/3DquTdM Ebook: https://amzn.to/4hgoaRm   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

It's such an honor to welcome Giuseppe Longo to the pod! Professor Giuseppe Longo is the Research Director Emeritus at Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. His work spans mathematics, computer science, biology, especially through the connective theoretical tissue of epistemology. Our conversation orbits around the limitations (or specific capacities) of computation, especially as computation becomes more and more central to mainstream theories of thought, being, life, and even physics. Longo pushes back on computationalism, grounding his critique in the sciences and in mathematics, especially as it becomes more and more established as an ideological foundation underneath applied biological research. No, for Longo the body is not a computer, the brain is not a computer, the world is not a computer, and the universe is not a computer — a computer is something altogether very specific, and should be afforded the dignity of its specificity. The title of this episode (imperative pythagoreanism) refers to pythagoreanism (the ancient worship of numbers in the 6th-4th century cult of Pythagorus, specifically the idea that the universe is fundamentally made of and reducible to numbers) and the imperative mode of computation (a determinative command structure).

Lise Meitner was the most important female physicist of the 20th century. She made fundamental discoveries on the atom, including, most famously, being the first to discover the idea of fission. This she did as she puzzled over experimental results generated by her colleague Otto Hahn. Hahn, but not Meitner, received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for this monumental discovery. More generally, Meitner overcame profound obstacles facing women in science to become a central figure in physics during its heyday as she worked with the likes of Niels Bohr and Albert Einstein to understand the atom, and hence the universe. With us to discuss the life and legacy of Lise Meitner is Marissa Moss. Marissa is the award-winning author and illustrator of over 70 books for children and young adults, including the book we discuss today, The Woman Who Split the Atom: The Life of Lise Meitner.

In his second Sophia Lecture, Dr Iain McGilchrist gives a bracing, counterintuitive account of the fundamental categories of our experience of the world. McGilchrist shows how fundamental binaries—such as stasis and motion, simplicity and complexity, order and randomness, and even straight lines and curves—do not occur in nature in ways that conform to our assumptions about an inert, independent, and predictable universe. Drawing from disciplines as disparate as physics, mathematics, biology and art, McGilchrist shows that asymmetry is not simply a principle of vitality, harmony, and beauty. McGilchrist argues that asymmetry is primary, a reality that is prior to symmetry and which forms the basis of the very symmetries in nature and the arts to which it gives rise. The dynamism which results from the drive to balance and to resist balance is at the root of the vigor of natural systems, the beauty that they embody, and which the arts then reflect. With examples ranging from the elegance of the golden ratio to the structure of the human brain, McGilchrist's lecture offers a fresh perspective on the nature of patterns in complex systems and human creations. His work invites us to search for wholeness, harmony, and connection from a set of starting points which are as surprising as they are fruitful; as always, he challenges us to see our world in new—and newly unified—ways.

How to Increase Blood Oxygen Levels: Breathing Hack

In this podcast, we're going to talk about breathing. Deep breathing does not increase blood oxygen levels. In fact, it can cause dizziness, make you tired, and even make you pass out. Your red blood cells will not release oxygen unless enough carbon dioxide (CO2) is present. This is known as the Bohr effect. This means that the amount of oxygen released from your blood into your cells is dependent upon CO2. If you're breathing a lot or hyperventilating, you'll get too much oxygen and not enough CO2. Too much oxygen can be dangerous to the body. If you give a baby too much oxygen, it can cause blindness, an epileptic seizure, or a coma. Too much oxygen also causes oxidation. People in a panicked state experience acute hyperventilation. Chronic hyperventilation, also known as carbon dioxide syndrome, is a lack of carbon dioxide that occurs when a person is consuming too much air. This is often triggered by stress. Mouth-breathing can deplete CO2 and inhibit oxygen absorption at the cellular level. This can affect the heart and cause hypoxia, fatigue, insomnia, muscle twitching, and increased histamine. To fix this problem, you need to train your body to breathe properly to get oxygen deep into the cells by doing the following: 1. Relax your breathing. Take soft, gentle breaths through your diaphragm and stomach, not your upper chest. Breathe in slowly for 5 seconds and exhale for 5 seconds. Practice this before you sleep at night, while driving, or while watching TV. This simple breathing technique can help your body get out of fight-or-flight mode. You can even use a free app to help you time your breathing! 2. Breathe through your nose. Your nose cleans, humidifies, and filters the air before it enters your lungs. Nose breathing increases your oxygen by 20%! 3. Use nose strips. Nose strips can help open your airways and sinuses while you sleep to help you breathe better. 4. Use mouth tape. Mouth tape can help you breathe through your nose while you sleep. You can filter the air all night, get more oxygen, and sleep better. You won't wake up with a dry mouth, and you'll wake up feeling refreshed. Mouth tape might even stop your snoring! Book Link: https://www.amazon.com/Carbon-Dioxide...
