Il mostro di Frankenstein, la creatura nata dalla folle ricerca del dottor Victor Frankenstein, è un essere generato assemblando parti di cadaveri e riportato alla vita, uno dei mostri più famosi nella storia della letteratura e del cinema, metafora, espressione della paura, simbolo… e forse qualcosa di molto più concreto. L'autrice del romanzo, Mary Shelley, si sarebbe infatti ispirata a scienziati e fatti realmente accaduti, gettando una luce nuova e inquietante su tutta la sua storia. Ma che cosa c'è di vero in questa teoria? Frankenstein e la sua creatura sono davvero esistiti?Aderisci alla pagina PATREON e sostieni i miei progetti e il mio lavoro: http://patreon.com/massimopolidoroPartecipa e sostieni su TIPEEE il progetto del mio Tour 2022 in tutta Italia: https://it.tipeee.com/massimopolidoroScopri i miei corsi online:https://www.massimopolidorostudio.comRicevi l'Avviso ai Naviganti, la mia newsletter settimanale: https://mailchi.mp/massimopolidoro/avvisoainavigantie partecipa alle scelte della mia communityE qui l'elenco completo dei miei libri disponibili: https://amzn.to/44feDp4Le musiche sono di Marco Forni e si possono ascoltare qui: https://hyperfollow.com/marcoforniSeguimi:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/massimopolidoro/Gruppo FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MassimoPolidoroFanClubPagina FB: https://www.facebook.com/Official.Massimo.PolidoroTwitter: https://twitter.com/massimopolidoroSito e blog: http://www.massimopolidoro.comIscriviti al mio canale youtube: https://goo.gl/Xkzh8A

ENTREVISTAS UPP/ Marcos Galvani y Delfina Irigoitia - Última edición de Modo Backstage

In this podcast, I am joined by Matthew Cobb, author of the fascinating book The idea of the Brain, to discuss the different concepts of the brain that have emerged over the centuries.Matthew Cobb is Professor of Zoology at the University of Manchester where he studies the neurobiology of the sense of smell.Matthew Cobb explores current and historical metaphors of the brain, from the machine and the mill to the battery and the computer.Matthew also flavours his history with gripping anecdotes, from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. And he draws lessons from such giants of science, from Galvani and Volta to Steno and Francis Crick.Matthew is also a non-professional historian, having written several other books, most recently Life's Greatest Secret: The Race to Crack the Genetic Code, and The Genetic Age: Our Perilous Quest to Edit Life.He is currently completing a biography of Francis Crick.

Para la historia de la ciencia hubo un momento clave en el que queremos detenernos esta semana. Aquel en el que fuimos capaces de entender que la sustancia que descargaban los rayos de las tormentas era la misma que hacía posible el movimiento de los animales e incluso nuestro pensamiento. El descubrimiento de los secretos de la electricidad abrió las puertas a un mundo entero de grandes avances que forman parte de nuestra vida actual, pero entre ellos, entender que somos seres eléctricos, nos llevó a toda una revolución en la biología, la psicología o la medicina que vamos a tratar de entender hoy, sobre todo, gracias a los trabajos de grandes autores como John Walsh con los peces eléctricos, Galvani y sus ranas o Volta y su fértil competición con el anterior, todo un versus científico con el que vamos a disfrutar.

Hello Interactors,A Frankenstein announcement from Musk this week punctuated my recent fascination with the author of that popular novel, Mary Shelley. Her isolated lived experience in a time of intense technological discovery, social and geo-political unrest, AND a climate crisis rings true today more than ever.But she also was subtlety representing a scientific movement that is largely ignored today, but just may be experiencing a bit of a resurgence in areas like biology and neuroscience.Let's dig in…FRANKEN-MUSK“It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs.”Mary Shelley was intrigued, and maybe a little scared, by the idea of electrifying organs. She admits as much in her 1831 forward of her famous novel, “Frankenstein”, first published January 1, 1818. She wrote,"Perhaps a corpse would be re-animated; galvanism had given token of such things: perhaps the component parts of a creature might be manufactured, brought together, and endued with vital warmth."Bioelectrical experimentation had been happening for nearly 40 years by the time Shelley wrote this book. Luigi Galvani, an Italian physician, physicist, and philosopher demonstrated the existence of electricity in living tissue in the late 1780s. He called it ‘animal electricity'. Many repeated his experiments over the years and ‘galvanism' remained hotly debated well into the 1800s.I've been thinking a lot about Shelley and her “Frankenstein” lately. The hype and hysteria surrounding AI, human-like robots, and biocomputing make it easy to imagine. Just last week Elon Musk tweeted that his company, Neuralink, implanted its brain chip in a human for the first time. He wants to make ‘The Matrix' a reality. Here we are some 200 years later, wanting to believe ‘perhaps the component parts of a creature might be manufactured, brought together, and endued with vital warmth.'‘Vital warmth' seems a borrowed phrase from another scientific movement of the time, ‘vitalism'. Vitalism is the belief that living organisms are fundamentally different from non-living entities, like computer chips, because they are governed by a unique, non-physical force or "vital spark" that animates life. A kind of teleology for which some contemporary biologists now have empirical evidence.One prominent vitalist of the 18th and 19th century, the German physician, physiologist, and anthropologist, Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, is best known for his contributions to the study of human biology. He developed the concept of the "Bildungstrieb" or "formative drive," which he proposed as an inherent force guiding the growth and development of organisms. Contemporary science explains these processes through a combination of genetic, biochemical, and physical principles like encoded DNA, gene expression networks, and morphogenesis — the interactions between cells and their responses to various chemical and mechanical forces.THE INDUSTRIALIST'S VITAL SPARK‘Formative drive' was a vitalist response to the mechanistic explanations of life that were prevalent in the Enlightenment period. The same mechanistic fervor that endues so many technologists today, like Musk, with vital warmth. Blumenbach argued that physical and chemical processes alone could not account for the organization and complexity of living beings. Instead, he suggested that some other vital force was responsible for the development and function of organic forms.Vitalists had their skeptics. Chiefly among them was Alessandro Volta. He was critical of Galvani's ‘vital spark'. In Galvani's frog leg experiments, he discovered that when two different metals (e.g., copper and zinc) were connected and then touched to a frog's nerve and muscle, the muscle would contract even without any external electrical source. Galvani concluded that this was due to an electrical force inherent in the nerves of the frog, a concept that challenged the prevailing views of the time and eventually laid the groundwork for the field of electrophysiology.Volta, however, believed the electrical effects were due to the metals used in Galvani's experiments. Volta's work eventually led to the development of the Voltaic Pile, an early form of a battery. Hence the term ‘volt'. The Voltaic Pile enabled a more systematic and controlled study of electricity, which was a relatively little-understood phenomenon at the time. It provided scientists and inventors with a consistent and reliable source of electrical energy for experiments, leading to a deeper understanding of electrical principles and the discovery of new technologies.One such technology was the invention of the telegraph in the 1830s. The availability of electric batteries as power sources is what made it possible for Samuel Morse to revolutionize long-distance communication, profoundly effecting commerce, governance, and daily life. As he wrote in his first public demonstration, “What hath God wrought?”The mechanists gained further favor as more and more scientists, inventors, and eventually economists succumbed to the allure of reductionism. They believed understanding complex phenomena could be done by studying their simplest, most fundamental, and mechanistic parts. Including body parts.ECHOES OF THE INDUSTRIAL AGEIt was around the time of Morse's tinkering that Mary Shelley reissued ‘Frankenstein'. She revealed in her 1831 forward how she was influenced by the scientific and philosophical ideas of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This included galvanism, the debates around vitalism, and the Romantic movement's reaction to the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and science.This was also a period marked by significant political, social, and technological upheavals. The consolidation of nation-states and the expansion of political power were central themes of this era, leading to debates over government intervention and the balance between order and liberty. Shelley's narrative, set against this backdrop, can be seen as a reflection on the consequences of unchecked ambition and the ethical responsibilities of creators, themes that are increasingly relevant in today's discussions about artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, and other forms of technological innovation.Moreover, Shelley's personal history and the socio-political context of her time deeply informed the themes of her novel. As the daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft, a pioneering feminist thinker, Shelley was exposed from an early age to, what were then, radical ideas about gender, society, and individual rights. Her own experiences of loss, isolation, and vulnerability were compounded by the societal upheavals of the Little Ice Age and the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. "Frankenstein" is imbued with a profound sense of existential questioning. It critiques the dehumanizing aspects of technological and industrial progress — themes that resonate with many today.Like the early parts of the Industrial Revolution, we are living in a period of transforming economies, social structures, and daily life, ushering in new forms of labor, consumption, and environmental impact. The creation of Shelley's ‘Creature' can be seen as a metaphor for the unforeseen consequences of industrialization, including the alienation of individuals from their labor, from nature, and from each other.Shelley's narrative warns of the dangers of valuing power and progress over empathy and ethical consideration, a warning that remains pertinent as society grapples with the implications of rapid technological advancement and environmental degradation. Mechanistic reductionism, with its emphasis on dissecting complex phenomena into their most basic parts, undeniably continues to dominate much of science, technology, and conventional thought.Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," while serving as a cautionary tale about the hubris and potential perils of unchecked scientific and technological ambition, has paradoxically also fueled the collective imagination, inspiring generations to dream of creating a human-like entity from disparate parts and mechanisms.Yet, there is an emerging renaissance that harks back to the holistic perspectives reminiscent of early vitalism. As scientists increasingly traverse interdisciplinary boundaries, embracing the principles of holism and complexity science, they are uncovering new patterns, principles, and laws that echo the intuitions of early vitalists.The groundbreaking research of Michael Levin at Tufts University, with its focus on bioelectric patterns and their role in development and regeneration, offers a compelling empirical bridge to Blumenbach's ‘formative drive'. While Levin's work eschews the metaphysical aspects of a "life force," it uncovers the intricate bioelectric networks that guide the form and function of organisms, echoing vitalism's fascination with the organizing principles of life.This shift acknowledges that life's essence may not be fully captured by reductionist views alone. Levin shows how it's not the mechanisms of DNA that unlock the mysteries of biological organization but the communication between cells and their environment. It points towards a more integrated understanding of the natural world that respects the intricate interplay of its myriad components.Shelley's pondering remains relevant today, “perhaps the component parts of a creature might be manufactured, brought together, and endued with vital warmth." Either way, "Frankenstein" continues to remind us of the need for humility and ethical consideration. After all, as we navigate the complex frontier between mechanistic ambition and our fragile, emergent, and interconnected life neurobiology tells us our own neural connections are being reshaped by both environmental interactions and cognitive activity, reflecting principles of embedded cognition those early vitalists would surely endorse.

“Sorella scimmia, fratello verme” storie di animali, scrittori e scienziati. Piergiorgio Odifreddi ha presentato a Mesagne il suo libro “Sorella scimmia, fratello verme” (edito da Rizzoli) mercoledì 11 ottobre, al Teatro Comunale. Nel libro l'autore racconta storie straordinarie di animali, scrittori e scienziati. Storie con protagonisti gli animali che hanno rappresentato un elemento di svolta per le grandi scoperte scientifiche. Per millenni abbiamo guardato agli animali come fonte di cibo, forza lavoro o, nel migliore dei casi, compagnia. In realtà, se si indaga nella letteratura, nella filosofia e nelle scienze, si scopre che essi hanno aiutato spesso l'uomo a progredire. Il volume si sofferma sulla relazione tra la Natura e l'Uomo, che è poi anche il tema centrale del progetto “Giardini di parole. L'arte di vivere tra natura e libri”, la rassegna organizzata dall'Amministrazione Comunale col sigillo progettuale della Biblioteca “Ugo Granafei” e il contributo del Cepell, assegnato nell'ambito del riconoscimento ministeriale “Mesagne città che legge”. Nel testo vengono affrontate le contraddizioni insite in un'antica e radicata visione, fondata sulla presunta superiorità umana rispetto alle altre specie, con le conseguenze anche gravi che alcune convinzioni hanno avuto e avranno sull'ambiente e sul pianeta. L'autore fa una sorprendente carrellata di storie di scienza. Si passa così dai conigli, che con la loro proverbiale prolificità hanno esemplificato i numeri di Fibonacci, ai ragni, il cui filo resistentissimo, notò il chimico-scrittore Primo Levi, si solidifica secondo un processo più efficace rispetto a quelli messi a punto dall'uomo. Il percorso di Odifreddi si snoda poi tra le rane e le torpedini di Galvani e i moscerini di Morgan, indispensabili per gli studi sull'ereditarietà. Grandi insegnamenti sono giunti da api e formiche, scimpanzé e mucche. La domanda che regge la trama sembra essere unica: siamo convinti di poter fare a meno degli animali? Forse no, visto che è stata una semplice lumaca di mare a darci un'avveniristica lezione sulle sinapsi, tema su cui frutta più di un premio Nobel per la Medicina. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vito-rodolfo-albano7/message

En skygge beveger seg gjennom den store Galvani-villaen. Når hun endelig rister av seg husets vakter, og smetter ned i den hemmelige luken, står hun i en lang steintrapp. Nix kjenner dragningen som har ledet henne hit, bli sterkere og sterkere for hvert skritt. Hun er på riktig sted, men hva leter hun etter? Nix snek seg ut i nattens mulm, på leting etter kilden for uroen og dragningen hun stadig følte på. Ovin og Vesper har i søken etter Nix begitt seg ut på et farlig oppdrag, og håper på å finne svar. De ser Galvani boligen som har brent ned, men hva skjedde egentlig? Vi hopper tilbake i tid og følger Nix sin historie, der den slapp i episode 27. Historien tar sted i en egenskrevet verden, skapt av spilleder Mikael Barr Kongsteien. Svært ulike karakterer, spilt av Helle Langmoen, Martin Mathiassen Oeding og Johanne Angelsen, og en gryende uro i samfunnet de lever i, viser seg å skape flere uventede situasjoner. Historien tar spillerne gjennom utfordrende kamper, humoristiske situasjoner og spennende plottwister som nesten vipper dem av stolen. Eventyrtimen er en actual play rollespillpodkast som lages av Martin Mathiassen Oeding, Robin Frøyen, Helle Langmoen, Mikael Barr Kongsteien og Johanne Angelsen for Radio Nova.

The company is driving towards defining a resource by year end, if successful the economics are outstanding as proven by their neighbours CBL (Private Producer) and Sigma Lithium $2.8 Billion MC Whats important is tons and grade. Lithium Ionic has the reasonable potential to prove up 20mt in the near term and more throughout 2023 at equiv grade/width as their neighbours. Bankable economic studies have shown by their neighbours illustrate 20mt generates a NPV5 of over $1.7 billion usd for the ultra low cap ex of $130 million usd. With a 17yr mine life using $1900/ton lithium, current spot price is over $5000/ton. Success is ultra-low cap ex for decades of ultra-high returns. Infrastructure, roads, hydropower, low labour cost, port access located in a proven jurisdiction that has fast/easy permitting and government support for exporting of concentrate to multiple end markets makes LTH.V very attractive for speculative investment capital. The Company has a tight share structure, over $15 million in cash to advance and multiple km of anomalies to drill. Peers such as SIGMA and CBL offer comps to evaluate others, discount applied, premiums given depending on specifics. "Drilling continues to prove size and grade potential at Galvani with potential to quickly build 15 – 20 Mt LTH announced results from the hole #2 located ~100 m NE along strike of previously released hole #1 (24.9 m at 1.57% Li2O) and up-dip of a historic hole OLDD-003 (12 m at 1.78% Li2O). Significant intercept from hole #02: 42.05 m at 1.17% Li2O, incl. 11.72 m at 1.95% Li2O. The intercept starts near-surface (11.3 m down hole or ~6 m below surface). This intercept confirms a widening of extension of mineralization to surface and confirms management's geological understanding of the mineralization. The Galvani property is located less than 4 kilometres from Sigma Lithium's Xuxa deposit (over 17Mt grading 1.55% Li2O M+I). For comparison, Xuxa's widths are in the range of 15 – 20 m. Galvani's drilling to date (incl. historic) indicates potential for better widths and comparable grade. The Company is currently undertaking a 900 metre (7 hole) drill program as well as an extensive trenching program in proximity to an approximately 700 meter strike extent of pegmatite on the Galvani claims. At these widths, LTH should be swiftly able to build large tonnage. The potential open-pit economics should look compelling with at-surface and wide mineralization with potential for higher grades deeper. 5 holes pending assays from Galvani. LTH's assets are located in a jurisdiction that has recently been designated a tax-free lithium zone. CBL, a private Brazilian company, has been producing lithium concentrate and hydroxide for +30 years and Sigma Lithium ($2B mkt cap) is expected to start producing next year. Sigma has an offtake agreement with LG which demonstrates the ability of the spodumene in this region to produce battery grade concentrate. Compelling Risk Reward: LTH's market cap is ~$130M with +$15M in cash. Sigma Lithium was able to go from staking to production in ~6 years and now sports a $2B valuation. LTH's near-term goal is to prove up 20Mt over the next 6-12 months which would allow it to produce a PEA/PFS shortly thereafter. Assuming success, we believe, would support a $5-10 stock price." This is exploration so understand it's high-risk.

Getchell Gold reported the remaining results for drill hole 17 that targeted the high-grade North Fork zone at the Fondaway Canyon gold project in Nevada. Tudor Gold returned its best hit yet at the Treaty Creek property in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. Erdene Resource Development announced final results from drilling at Ulaan Southeast in Mongolia. Alphamin Resources reported record quarterly tin production from operations in Democratic Republic of Congo, and declared a 3c per share dividend. Lithium Ionic hits high grade lithium at Galvani in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Kuya Silver is to raise C$2 million with a five-year warrant.

Avviato nel gennaio 2020 nel campo di via Galvani, grazie a un finanziamento della Fondazione Cariverona, ha permesso la sottoscrizione di un contratto di lavoro, l'avviamento di 2 tirocini lavorativi, l'aumento della frequenza scolastica dei ragazzi e la ricerca di abitazioni convenzionale.

Era no troppe le segnalazioni degli abitanti della zona, tanto che il Questore di Vicenza Paolo Sartori ha dato il nulla osta al blitz in via Galvani dove si trova il campo nomadi. Controllate 26 persone, alcune delle quali con precedenti, emessi 7 avvisi orali nei confronti di cittadini italiani e stranieri che denotano una spiccata pericolosità sociale a causa di precedenti penali e/o di Polizia per reati di varia natura.

Nell'Occidente cristiano-giudaico – anche su indicazione del Genesi dove si ordina all'uomo di sottomettere i pesci del mare, gli uccelli del cielo e via dicendo – si è guardato per millenni agli animali come fonte di cibo, forza lavoro o, nel migliore dei casi, compagnia. Ma i nodi di questa visione fondata sulla presunta superiorità umana rispetto alle altre specie stanno ormai venendo al pettine, con tutte le catastrofiche conseguenze che ha avuto e avrà sulla natura e sul pianeta.In realtà, gli animali hanno gli stessi nostri diritti di abitare la Terra e, se si indaga nella letteratura, nella filosofia e soprattutto nelle scienze, si scopre che spesso hanno aiutato l'uomo a progredire, lo hanno ispirato o indirizzato nelle scoperte. In questo libro Piergiorgio Odifreddi, con la sua straordinaria capacità di metterci sempre un nuovo tarlo razionale nel cervello, fa una sorprendente carrellata di storie di scienza che, oltre all'uomo, hanno avuto per protagonisti degli animali. Si passa così dai conigli che, con la loro proverbiale prolificità, hanno esemplificato i numeri di Fibonacci ai ragni il cui filo resistentissimo, notò il chimico-scrittore Primo Levi, si solidifica secondo un processo più efficace di quelli messi a punto dall'uomo: per trazione. Il curioso, coltissimo e originale percorso di Odifreddi si snoda poi tra le rane e le torpedini di Galvani (queste ultime già utilizzate, secondo Plinio, nell'antichità per fare degli elettroshock naturali) e i moscerini di Morgan, indispensabili per gli studi sull'ereditarietà. E che dire del cane di Pavlov che (come le oche di Lorenz) ebbe lo straordinario merito di spostare l'attenzione degli psicologi dall'introspezione all'osservazione dei comportamenti? Eccezionali insegnamenti ci sono giunti da api e formiche, scimpanzé e mucche (quella di Jenner, pioniere dei vaccini). E poi, perché mai il gatto di Peano riesce sempre a cadere in piedi?Insomma, siamo ancora convinti di poter fare a meno degli animali…? Forse no, visto che è stata una semplice lumaca di mare a darci un'avveniristica lezione sulle sinapsi (tema su cui è fioccato più di un premio Nobel per la Medicina)! ************************************************************************* Evento svoltosi il 7 Febbraio 2022 presso il Circolo dei lettori, via Bogino 9, Torino con Antonella Frontani a cura di Cento per Cento Lettori. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vito-rodolfo-albano7/message

Un grande bolognese del passato, LUIGI GALVANI al quale si deve uno dei più grandi contributi della scienza moderna. In studio Silvia Parma ed Ettore Pancaldi

The Omicron variant is sweeping across the United States and the rest of the world, breaking previous records of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. While it may cause milder illness, its transmissibility and ability to evade vaccines make this surge particularly challenging to navigate. On the latest episode of The Dose podcast, host Shanoor Seervai asks Alison Galvani, founding director of the Yale Center for Infectious Disease Modeling and Analysis, to bring listeners up to speed on this phase of the pandemic. Galvani and her colleagues have found that increasing the number of boosters administered each day could save thousands of lives.  Vaccination is relatively inexpensive, particularly compared with the costs associated with hospitalizations and productivity losses, even from mild cases, she says.

We've all heard the story of "Frankenstein's Monster." A bat shit crazy scientist wants to reanimate dead tissue and basically create a fucking zombie baby… BECAUSE THAT'S HOW YOU GET FUCKING ZOMBIES! Anyway, Dr. Frankenstein and his trusty assistant, Igor, set off to bring a bunch of random, dead body parts together, throw some lightning on the bugger and bring this new, puzzle piece of a quasi-human back to "life." At first, the reanimated corpse seems somewhat ordinary, but then flips his shit and starts terrorizing and doing what I can only imagine REANIMATED ZOMBIES FUCKING DO!    Mary Shelley was born Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin in Somers Town, London, in 1797. She was the second child of the feminist philosopher, educator, and writer Mary Wollstonecraft and the first child of the philosopher, novelist, and journalist William Godwin.  So, she was brought into this world by some smart fucking people. Mary's mother died of puerperal fever shortly after Mary was born. Puerperal fever is an infectious, sometimes fatal, disease of childbirth; until the mid-19th century, this dreaded, then-mysterious illness could sweep through a hospital maternity ward and kill most new mothers. Today strict aseptic hospital techniques have made the condition uncommon in most parts of the world, except in unusual circumstances such as illegally induced abortion. Her father, William, was left to bring up Mary and her older half-sister, Fanny Imlay, Mary's mother's child by the American speculator Gilbert Imlay. A year after her mother's death, Godwin published his Memoirs of the Author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, which he intended as a sincere and compassionate tribute. However, the Memoirs revealed Mary's mother's affairs and her illegitimate child. In that period, they were seen as shocking. Mary read these memoirs and her mother's books and was brought up to cherish her mother's memory. Mary's earliest years were happy, judging from the letters of William's housekeeper and nurse, Louisa Jones. But Godwin was often deeply in debt; feeling that he could not raise Mary and Fanny himself, he looked for a second wife. In December 1801, he married Mary Jane Clairmont, a well-educated woman with two young children—Charles and Claire SO MANY MARY'S! Sorry folks. Most of her father's friends disliked his new wife, describing her as a straight fucking bitch. Ok, not really, but they didn't like her. However, William was devoted to her, and the marriage worked. Mary, however, came to hate that bitch. William's 19th-century biographer Charles Kegan Paul later suggested that Mrs. Godwin had favored her own children over Williams. So, how awesome is it that he had a biographer? That's so badass.  Together, Mary's father and his new bride started a publishing firm called M. J. Godwin, which sold children's books and stationery, maps, and games. However, the business wasn't making any loot, and her father was forced to borrow butt loads of money to keep it going. He kept borrowing money to pay off earlier loans, just adding to his problems. By 1809, William's business was close to closing up shop, and he was "near to despair." Mary's father was saved from debtor's prison by devotees such as Francis Place, who lent him additional money. So, debtor's prison is pretty much EXACTLY what it sounds like. If you couldn't pay your debts, they threw your ass in jail. Unlike today where they just FUCK UP YOUR CREDIT! THANKS, COLUMBIA HOUSE!!!  Though Mary received little education, her father tutored her in many subjects. He often took the children on educational trips. They had access to his library and the many intelligent mofos who visited him, including the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge and the former vice-president of the United States Aaron Burr. You know, that dude that shot and killed his POLITICAL opponent, Alexander Hamilton, in a fucking duel! Ah… I was born in the wrong century.   Mary's father admitted he was not educating the children according to Mary's mother's philosophy as outlined in works such as A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. However, Mary still received an unusual and advanced education for a girl of the time. She had a governess, a daily tutor, and read many of her father's children's Roman and Greek history books. For six months in 1811, she also attended a boarding school in Ramsgate, England. Her father described her at age 15 as "singularly bold, somewhat imperious, and active of mind. Her desire of knowledge is great, and her perseverance in everything she undertakes almost invincible." My father didn't know how to spell my name until I was twelve.  In June of 1812, Mary's father sent her to stay with the family of the radical William Baxter, near Dundee, Scotland. In a letter to Baxter, he wrote, "I am anxious that she should be brought up ... like a philosopher, even like a cynic." Scholars have speculated that she may have been sent away for her health, remove her from the seamy side of the business, or introduce her to radical politics. However, Mary loved the spacious surroundings of Baxter's house and with his four daughters, and she returned north in the summer of 1813 to hang out for 10 months. In the 1831 introduction to Frankenstein, she recalled: "I wrote then—but in a most common-place style. It was beneath the trees of the grounds belonging to our house, or on the bleak sides of the woodless mountains near, that my true compositions, the airy flights of my imagination, were born and fostered."   Mary Godwin may have first met the radical poet-philosopher Percy Bysshe Shelley in between her two stays in Scotland. When she returned home for a second time on 30 March 1814, Percy Shelley became estranged from his wife and regularly visited Mary's father, William Godwin, whom he had agreed to bail out of debt. Percy Shelley's radicalism, particularly his economic views, alienated him from his wealthy aristocratic family. They wanted him to be a high, upstanding snoot and follow traditional models of the landed aristocracy. He tried to donate large amounts of the family's money to projects meant to help the poor and disadvantaged. Percy Shelley, therefore, had a problem gaining access to capital until he inherited his estate because his family did not want him wasting it on projects of "political justice." After several months of promises, Shelley announced that he could not or would not pay off all of Godwin's debts. Godwin was angry and felt betrayed and whooped his fuckin ass! Yeah! Ok, not really. He was just super pissed. Mary and Percy began hookin' up on the down-low at her mother Mary Wollstonecraft's grave in the churchyard of St Pancras Old Church, and they fell in love—she was 16, and he was 21. Creepy and super fucking gross.   On 26 June 1814, Shelley and Godwin declared their love for one another as Shelley announced he could not hide his "ardent passion,." This led her in a "sublime and rapturous moment" to say she felt the same way; on either that day or the next, Godwin lost her virginity to Shelley, which tradition claims happened in the churchyard. So, the grown-ass 21-year-old man statutorily raped the 16-year-old daughter of the man he idolized and dicked over. In a graveyard. My god, how things have changed...GROSS! Godwin described herself as attracted to Shelley's "wild, intellectual, unearthly looks." Smart but ugly. Got it. To Mary's dismay, her father disapproved and tried to thwart the relationship and salvage his daughter's "spotless fame." No! You don't say! Dad wasn't into his TEENAGE DAUGHTER BANGING A MAN IN THE GRAVEYARD!?! Mary's father learned of Shelley's inability to pay off the father's debts at about the same time. Oof. He found out after he diddled her. Mary, who later wrote of "my excessive and romantic attachment to my father," was confused. Um… what? She saw Percy Shelley as an embodiment of her parents' liberal and reformist ideas of the 1790s, particularly Godwin's view that marriage was a repressive monopoly, which he had argued in his 1793 edition of Political Justice but later retracted. On 28 July 1814, the couple eloped and secretly left for France, taking Mary's stepsister, Claire Clairmont, with them.  After convincing Mary's mother, who took off after them to Calais, that they did not wish to return, the trio traveled to Paris, and then, by donkey, mule, carriage, and foot, through France, recently ravaged by war, all the way to Switzerland. "It was acting in a novel, being an incarnate romance," Mary Shelley recalled in 1826. Godwin wrote about France in 1814: "The distress of the inhabitants, whose houses had been burned, their cattle killed and all their wealth destroyed, has given a sting to my detestation of war...". As they traveled, Mary and Percy read works by Mary Wollstonecraft and others, kept a joint journal, and continued their own writing. Finally, at Lucerne, lack of money forced the three to turn back. Instead, they traveled down the Rhine and by land to the Dutch port of Maassluis, arriving at Gravesend, Kent, on 13 September 1814. The situation awaiting Mary Godwin in England was packed with bullshit, some of which she had not expected. Either before or during their journey, she had become pregnant. She and Percy now found themselves penniless, and, to Mary's stupid ass surprise, her father refused to have anything to do with her. The couple moved with Claire into lodgings at Somers Town, and later, Nelson Square. They kept doing their thing, reading, and writing and entertained Percy Shelley's friends. Percy Shelley would often leave home for short periods to dodge bill collectors, and the couple's heartbroken letters would reveal their pain while he was away. Pregnant and often sick, Mary Godwin had to hear of Percy's joy at the birth of his son by Harriet Shelley in late 1814 due to his constant escapades with Claire Clairmont. Supposedly, Shelley and Clairmont were almost certainly lovers, which caused Mary to be rightfully jealous. And yes, Claire was Mary's cousin. Percy was a friggin' creep. Percy pissed off Mary when he suggested that they both take the plunge into a stream naked during a walk in the French countryside. This offended her due to her principles, and she was like, "Oh, hell nah, sahn!" and started taking off her earrings in a rage. Or something like that. She was partly consoled by the visits of Hogg, whom she disliked at first but soon considered a close friend. Percy Shelley seems to have wanted Mary and Hogg to become lovers; Mary did not dismiss the idea since she believed in free love in principle. She was a hippie before being a hippie was cool. Percy probably just wanted to not feel guilty for hooking up with her cousin. Creep. In reality, however, she loved only Percy and seemed to have gone no further than flirting with Hogg. On 22 February 1815, she gave birth to a two-months premature baby girl, who was not expected to survive. On 6 March, she wrote to Hogg: "My dearest Hogg, my baby is dead—will you come to see me as soon as you can. I wish to see you—It was perfectly well when I went to bed—I awoke in the night to give it suck it appeared to be sleeping so quietly that I would not awake it. It was dead then, but we did not find that out till morning—from its appearance it evidently died of convulsions—Will you come—you are so calm a creature & Shelley (Percy) is afraid of a fever from the milk—for I am no longer a mother now." The loss of her child brought about acute depression in Mary. She was haunted by visions of the baby, but she conceived again and had recovered by the summer. With a revival in Percy's finances after the death of his grandfather, Sir Bysshe Shelley, the couple holidayed in Torquay and then rented a two-story cottage at Bishopsgate, on the edge of Windsor Great Park. Unfortunately, little is known about this period in Mary Godwin's life since her journal from May 1815 to July 1816 was lost. At Bishopsgate, Percy wrote his poem Alastor or The Spirit of Solitude; and on 24 January 1816, Mary gave birth to a second child, William, named after her father and soon nicknamed "Willmouse." In her novel The Last Man, she later imagined Windsor as a Garden of Eden. In May 1816, Mary, Percy, and their son traveled to Geneva with Claire Clairmont. They planned to spend the summer with the poet Lord Byron, whose recent affair with Claire had left her pregnant. Claire sounds like a bit of a trollop. No judging, just making an observation. The party arrived in Geneva on 14 May 1816, where Mary called herself "Mrs Shelley." Byron joined them on 25 May with his young physician, John William Polidori, and rented the Villa Diodati, close to Lake Geneva at the village of Cologny; Percy rented a smaller building called Maison Chapuis on the waterfront nearby. They spent their time writing, boating on the lake, and talking late into the night. "It proved a wet, ungenial summer," Mary Shelley remembered in 1831, "and incessant rain often confined us for days to the house." Sitting around a log fire at Byron's villa, the company amused themselves with German ghost stories called Fantasmagoriana, which prompted Byron to propose that they "each write a ghost story." Unable to think up an account, young Mary became flustered: "Have you thought of a story? I was asked each morning, and each morning I was forced to reply with a mortifying negative." Finally, one mid-June evening, the discussions turned to the principle of life. "Perhaps a corpse would be reanimated," Mary noted, "galvanism had given token of such things." Galvanism is a term invented by the late 18th-century physicist and chemist Alessandro Volta to refer to the generation of electric current by chemical action. The word also came to refer to the discoveries of its namesake, Luigi Galvani, specifically the generation of electric current within biological organisms and the contraction/convulsion of natural muscle tissue upon contact with electric current. While Volta theorized and later demonstrated the phenomenon of his "Galvanism" to be replicable with otherwise inert materials, Galvani thought his discovery to confirm the existence of "animal electricity," a vital force that gave life to organic matter. We'll talk a little more about Galvani and a murderer named George Foster toward the end of the episode. It was after midnight before they retired, and she was unable to sleep, mainly because she became overwhelmed by her imagination as she kept thinking about the grim terrors of her "waking dream," her ghost story: "I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life, and stir with an uneasy, half vital motion. Frightful must it be; for supremely frightful would be the effect of any human endeavour to mock the stupendous mechanism of the Creator of the world." She began writing what she assumed would be a short, profound story. With Percy Shelley's encouragement, she turned her little idea into her first novel, Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, published in 1818. She later described that time in Switzerland as "when I first stepped out from childhood into life." The story of the writing of Frankenstein has been fictionalized repeatedly, and it helped form the basis for several films. Here's a cool little side note: In September 2011, the astronomer Donald Olson, after a visit to the Lake Geneva villa the previous year and inspecting data about the motion of the moon and stars, concluded that her waking dream took place "between 2 am and 3 am" 16 June 1816, several days after the initial idea by Lord Byron that they each write their ghost stories. Shelley and her husband collaborated on the story, but the extent of Percy's contribution to the novel is unknown and has been argued over by readers and critics forever. There are differences in the 1818, 1823, and 1831 versions. Mary Shelley wrote, "I certainly did not owe the suggestion of one incident, nor scarcely of one train of feeling, to my husband, and yet but for his incitement, it would never have taken the form in which it was presented to the world." She wrote that the preface to the first edition was her husband's work "as far as I can recollect." James Rieger concluded Percy's "assistance at every point in the book's manufacture was so extensive that one hardly knows whether to regard him as editor or minor collaborator." At the same time, Anne K. Mellor later argued Percy only "made many technical corrections and several times clarified the narrative and thematic continuity of the text." Charles E. Robinson, the editor of a facsimile edition of the Frankenstein manuscripts, concluded that Percy's contributions to the book "were no more than what most publishers' editors have provided new (or old) authors or, in fact, what colleagues have provided to each other after reading each other's works in progress." So, eat one, Percy! Just kidding. In 1840 and 1842, Mary and her son traveled together all over the continent. Mary recorded these trips in Rambles in Germany and Italy in 1840, 1842, and 1843. In 1844, Sir Timothy Shelley finally died at the age of ninety, "falling from the stalk like an overblown flower," Mary put it. For the first time in her life, she and her son were financially independent, though the remaining estate wasn't worth as much as they had thought. In the mid-1840s, Mary Shelley found herself in the crosshairs of three separate blackmailing sons of bitches. First, in 1845, an Italian political exile called Gatteschi, whom she had met in Paris, threatened to publish letters she had sent him. Scandalous! However, a friend of her son's bribed a police chief into seizing Gatteschi's papers, including the letters, which were then destroyed. Vaffanculo, Gatteschi! Shortly afterward, Mary Shelley bought some letters written by herself and Percy Shelley from a man calling himself G. Byron and posing as the illegitimate son of the late Lord Byron. Also, in 1845, Percy Shelley's cousin Thomas Medwin approached her, claiming to have written a damaging biography of Percy Shelley. He said he would suppress it in return for £250, but Mary told him to eat a big ole bag of dicks and jog on! In 1848, Percy Florence married Jane Gibson St John. The marriage proved a happy one, and Mary liked Jane. Mary lived with her son and daughter-in-law at Field Place, Sussex, the Shelleys' ancestral home, and at Chester Square, London, and vacationed with them, as well. Mary's last years were blighted by illness. From 1839, she suffered from headaches and bouts of paralysis in parts of her body, which sometimes prevented her from reading and writing, obviously two of her favorite things. Then, on 1 February 1851, at Chester Square, Mary Shelly died at fifty-three from what her doctor suspected was a brain tumor. According to Jane Shelley, Mary had asked to be buried with her mother and father. Still, looking at the graveyard at St Pancras and calling it "dreadful," Percy and Jane chose to bury her instead at St Peter's Church in Bournemouth, near their new home at Boscombe. On the first anniversary of Mary's death, the Shelleys opened her box-desk. Inside they found locks of her dead children's hair, a notebook she had shared with Percy Bysshe Shelley, and a copy of his poem Adonaïs with one page folded round a silk parcel containing some of his ashes and the remains of his heart. Romantic or disturbing? Maybe a bit of both. Mary Shelley remained a stout political radical throughout her life. Mary's works often suggested that cooperation and sympathy, mainly as practiced by women in the family, were the ways to reform civil society. This view directly challenged the individualistic Romantic ethos promoted by Percy Shelley and Enlightenment political theories. She wrote seven novels / Two travel narrations / Twenty three short stories / Three books of children's literature, and many articles. Mary Shelley left her mark on the literary world, and her name will be forever etched in the catacombs of horror for generations to come. When it comes to reanimation, there's someone else we need to talk about. George Forster (or Foster) was found guilty of murdering his wife and child by drowning them in Paddington Canal, London. He was hanged at Newgate on 18 January 1803, after which his body was taken to a nearby house where it was used in an experiment by Italian scientist Giovanni Aldini. At his trial, the events were reconstructed. Forster's mother-in-law recounted that her daughter and grandchild had left her house to see Forster at 4 pm on Saturday, 4 December 1802. In whose house Forster lodged, Joseph Bradfield reported that they had stayed together that night and gone out at 10 am on Sunday morning. He also stated that Forster and his wife had not been on good terms because she wished to live with him. On Sunday, various witnesses saw Forster with his wife and child in public houses near Paddington Canal. The body of his child was found on Monday morning; after the canal was dragged for three days, his wife's body was also found. Forster claimed that upon leaving The Mitre, he set out alone for Barnet to see his other two children in the workhouse there, though he was forced to turn back at Whetstone due to the failing light. This was contradicted by a waiter at The Mitre who said the three left the inn together. Skepticism was also expressed that he could have walked to Whetstone when he claimed. Nevertheless, the jury found him guilty. He was sentenced to death and also to be dissected after that. This sentence was designed to provide medicine with corpses on which to experiment and ensure that the condemned could not rise on Judgement Day, their bodies having been cut into pieces and selectively discarded. Forster was hanged on 18 January, shortly before he made a full confession. He said he had come to hate his wife and had twice before taken his wife to the canal, but his nerve had both times failed him. A recent BBC Knowledge documentary (Real Horror: Frankenstein) questions the fairness of the trial. It notes that friends of George Forster's wife later claimed that she was highly suicidal and had often talked about killing herself and her daughter. According to this documentary, Forster attempted suicide by stabbing himself with a crudely fashioned knife. This was to avoid awakening during the dissection of his body, should he not have died when hanged. This was a real possibility owing to the crude methods of execution at the time. The same reference suggests that his 'confession' was obtained under duress. In fact, it alleges that Pass, a Beadle or an official of a church or synagogue on Aldini's payroll, fast-tracked the whole trial and legal procedure to obtain the freshest corpse possible for his benefactor. After the execution, Forster's body was given to Giovanni Aldini for experimentation. Aldini was the nephew of fellow scientist Luigi Galvani and an enthusiastic proponent of his uncle's method of stimulating muscles with electric current, known as Galvanism. The experiment he performed on Forster's body demonstrated this technique. The Newgate Calendar (a record of executions at Newgate) reports that "On the first application of the process to the face, the jaws of the deceased criminal began to quiver, and the adjoining muscles were horribly contorted, and one eye was actually opened. In the subsequent part of the process the right hand was raised and clenched, and the legs and thighs were set in motion."  Several people present believed that Forster was being brought back to life (The Newgate Calendar reports that even if this had been so, he would have been re-executed since his sentence was to "hang until he be dead"). One man, Mr. Pass, the beadle of the Surgeons' Company, was so shocked that he died shortly after leaving. The hanged man was undoubtedly dead since his blood had been drained and his spinal cord severed after the execution.   Top Ten Frankenstein Movies https://screenrant.com/best-frankenstein-movies-ranked-imdb/

Vaccines have saved thousands of lives and are an incredible tool in the seemingly endless battle against the coronavirus. But even with COVID surging anew in Europe as winter approaches, the rate at which Americans are getting vaccinated has plateaued.   On the latest episode of The Dose, Alison Galvani, founding director of the Yale Center for Infectious Disease Modeling and Analysis, and Eric Schneider, M.D., senior vice president for policy and research at the Commonwealth Fund, bring listeners up to speed on the state of the pandemic.   Galvani and Schneider have been using data to show how effective the vaccines are at preventing deaths and hospitalizations — and how, in the absence of successful vaccination campaigns, we are still losing people to the virus. Increasing vaccine uptake through mandates and administering boosters will help curb this pandemic. But to stave off future threats, it's vital that we also strengthen the public health system and make it easier for all Americans to access health care, they say.

He also worked at Galvani, a joint venture between Google and GSK as well as working in academia before.  Top 3 Takeaways "When you try to speak to potential investors who consider themselves experts in medical devices, they typically fall into three categories: One is no experience with neuromodulation and another bucket is experienced with wearable neuromodulation. And the third very small bucket is experience with implantable class three neuromodulation." "Chinese VCs, typically are much younger, often they're less than 30 years old. And they're joining typically in larger numbers, about four to six to the zoom meetings versus one to two in the US and they're also being rather silent during the presentations." " [A surgeon] showed a whole bunch of photographs of failed implantations and you could see all kinds of ways it possibly can fail. This is very educational. It's much better than showing a picture of a working implant." 0:45 "Do you want to introduce yourself?" 1:15 "You were working at Galvani... do you want to explain it and what the, what this venture was aiming?" 8:00 "So you were there for three years and then you decided to go do your own thing, did you see a need in the market?" 12:15 "Let's talk about these NIH, SBR grants" 19:00 "You were pitching to VCs in China. And so now you have a comparison, the US versus China. So what's that like?" 21:00 "A lot of people are a little bit nervous about working with China or Chinese companies because of intellectual property. They're worried that their technology will be stolen or copied. Is that something that people should be worried about? Is that how did you approach it?" 25:15 You guys decided to use an off-the-shelf IPG instead of developing your own one, why? 30:45 Can you talk about the small neurotech meetings you organized? 34:15 "So you're saying as an academician, you had lots of time, but now you don't." 35:15 "Is there anything that we didn't talk about that you wanted to mention?"   Here is the link to 5 conferences that Dr Pikov helped to organize: https://neuroprostheticdevicesconferences.wordpress.com/

El cerebro humano y los procesos mentales como la memoria, el aprendizaje, el sueño, son algunos de los grandes misterios aún per resolver, junto con el fondo de los océanos y por supuesto los confines del universo. Misterios que pensadores y mentes inquietas de todos los tiempos han intentado resolver a lo largo de la historia, filósofos y científicos como Aristóteles, Galeno, Descartes, Galvani, y Ramón y Cajal por citar solo algunos, hasta los últimos descubrimientos de la neurociencia.Para conocer un poco más la historia de este gran misterio que es el cerebro, cuento hoy en el podcast con Ignacio Morgado, uno de los neurocientíficos más prestigiosos de España, catedrático de psicobiología en el Instituto de Neurociencias y en la Facultad de Psicología de la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona. Es autor de varios libros, entre ellos el que da título a este episodio, 'Materia Gris', de la editorial Ariel.

Luigi Galvani was one of the Enlightenment's brightest medical minds. His experiments challenged people to consider the nature of existence and might have been so influential that they contributed to the end of the Enlightenment.

Modern cars are galvanized, which explains the huge reduction in automotive rust over the past 30 years. Modern cars still rust, but they rust a lot slower than older cars, which were not galvanized. They don’t rust because of the cathodic protection. Rust is chemically impossible. (There might be the smallest amount of inconsequential surface corrosion, in places, like near scratches, but it won’t grow. It can’t.)

See, back in the ‘70s and ‘80s in Australia, the car market was essentially American. It was all Ford and Holden, which means: we did business the way America did business, and America was quite happy to throw car owners under the ‘rusty’ bus after just a few short years, rolling around. And then along came Japan - which has a lot of salty coastline relative to its land mass, and it started introducing galvanized cars in America. They didn’t rust as much, and consumer demand kind forced the hands of the US Big Three automakers to introduce galvanising. And the rest is history. Fast-forward to today: all new cars are galvanized in developed markets, globally. Even Australia. So, stone chips and minor scratches are not the problem they once were. You can repair them for aesthetic reasons if you want to, but there’s no need to obsess about it from a rust protection point of view, because of the magic frog-jolting action of cathodic protection. Major damage - where lots of zinc comes off, in the manner of frogskin in the Galvani household on a Friday night, after a few Chiantis, that’s gunna rust. So, should you neck a few scoobs one evening and decide to buff your wanking chariot with a 40-grit flap-disc, until the battery in your angle grinder sucks on a dry tank, that’s gunna be a problem. The best corrective measure there (aside from jumping in a time machine and telling your parents not to breed) is to prime it all up with a zinc-based primer, and re-paint, preferably with a pressure pack can (or cans).

A Rádió 9 szomszédsági podcastját a IX. és a XIX. kerületet összekapcsoló Határ úti Kiserdő megmaradásáért tevékenykedő lakossági csoport tagjai készítették. Németh Krisztina, Tracey Wheatley, Ferenczi István és Molnár Szilvia Kiserdővédő aktivisták beszélgetésében szó van autózási szokásokról, a külvárosok jövőjéről, arról, vajon milyen lesz Budapest 30 év múlva. Közben a civil csapat emlékezetes akcióit is felidézik a Galvani – projekt 2017-es indulása óta. A jelszó mindvégig: óvjuk meg a Kiserdőt!

Hogyan tehető zöldebbé a Kerekerdő Park - talán közös tervezéssel. A H52, Konkáv és ADRA, vagyis az Adventista Szeretetszolgálat Alapítvány helyi projektjét mutatja be a szervező Sitkei Zoltán, akit Barna Era kérdezett a projektről. Vajon egy színház lehet-e öko-tudatos? Megtudhatjuk, hogyan működik egy zöld színházi társulás. Bencsik Márta beszélgetett a StúdióK zöld nagyköveteivel Homonnai Katalinnal és Schäffer Zsuzsával. Szintén zöld téma, a Kiserdő védelme is újra szóba kerül, a Galvani hídról levezető út 2. szakaszának tervezése kapcsán. Borbás Gabriella kérdezte Ferenczi István Kiserdővédőt a Budapest Fejlesztési Központ által hétfőn tartott online lakossági fórumról. Az épületeket sem kíméli a változás. Október 11-én “Bontás és teljes átalakulás vár egy belvárosi műemlékre, ahol száz éve megállt az idő” címmel jelent meg egy cikk a 24.hu oldalon. A Lónyay utca 26 szám alatti épület bontásra vár. Sarkadi Péter ezt a kérdést járta körbe az írás szerzőjével, Vincze Miklóssal. A helyszínen Gönczi Ambrusnak, a stúdiónak helyet adó Helytörténeti Gyűjtemény vezetőjének véleményét kérdezte a Lónyay 26 bontásáról két műsorvezetőnk, Barna Era és Nemesné Singer Edina.

A Dél-Buda és Dél-Pest összekötésére, a Belváros forgalomcsökkentésére megépítendő új Duna-híd és az arról a pesti oldalra levezető út nyomvonalának a helye már évek óta vitatott a nyilvánosságban. A hivatalos, a lakosságot is bevonó disputa most kezdődött el a Galvani-hídról tervezett útvonalak konkrét hatástanulmányainak ismeretében. Ongjerth Richárd várostervezővel és Ferenczi István kiserdővédő aktivistával, kispesti önkormányzati képviselővel többek között arról beszélgettünk, mi lehet a legjobb módja az érintett lakosok, önkormányzatok bevonásának, mennyire számít a véleményük a döntésben.

Sulla Grassa Bologna si sono sparsi fiumi d'inchiostro. La fama di città dove si mangia splendidamente è arrivata fino a noi, merito di una campagna promozionale…letteraria. Edgar Allan Poe, ad esempio, ha inserito la mortadella, totem della gastronomia locale, nel suo romanzo Gordon Pym. Tanti erano e sono i templi in cui si celebra il rito della buona cucina. Fra cui La Cesarina "Santo Stefano, la stupenda Santo Stefano, ha avuto per tanto tempo come dirimpettaio quel tempio potentemente e squisitamente nutritore che era il ristorante della Cesarina. Senza fastidio, senza molestia reciproca. La distanza di un centinaio di metri impediva ogni mescolanza, ogni imbarazzante miscellanea, ogni criticabile contaminazione fra gli incensi delle Messe cantate e il fumo grasso e benevolo dei bolliti di manzo e di cappone. La Cesarina, quasi sempre in piedi e quasi sempre nella posizione di un pugile che aspetta il colpo di gong per incrociare i guantoni con l'avversario, era sempre pronta, se capitava sul discorso, a stendere al suolo tutti gli incauti che avessero dubitato della sua priorità nell'invenzione dei tortellini con la panna: una scoperta non meno importante di quella che fece Galvani con la rana".

“Sovente, alle due di notte, rientrando nel mio alloggio, a Bologna, attraverso questi lunghi portici, l'anima esaltata da quei begli occhi che avevo appena visto, passando davanti a quei palazzi di cui, con le sue grandi ombre, la luna disegnava le masse, mi succedeva di fermarmi, oppresso dalla felicità, per dirmi: Com'è bello!” Stendhal, Voyages en Italie Il Portico del Pavaglione è forse il più famoso e frequentato fra i portici della città. Si estende lungo via dell'Archiginnasio, a fianco della Basilica di San Petronio, ed è, a tutt'oggi, uno dei passaggi più eleganti e amati dei bolognesi. Deve il suo nome alla Piazza del Pavaglione, attuale piazza Galvani, un tempo sede del mercato dei bachi da seta e dei padiglioni (in bolognese pavajon) che lo ospitavano. "Sotto il Portico del Pavaglione il negozio Zanichelli è già convegno dei letterati bolognesi: Carducci, Panzacchi, Albicini, Roncaglia, Gozzadini. Il Minghetti è molto impegnato negli affari di stato; Ernesto Masi è giunto da poco a Bologna e Olindo Guerrini, noto solo agli amici, aspetta ancora un anno a svelarsi".

Cosa c'entra Frankenstein con Bologna? Lo scrisse un'autrice britannica, Mary Shelley, a soli 19 anni. Lo ideò a Ginevra, durante una vacanza funestata dalla pioggia. A Bologna non mise mai piede. Eppure Frankenstein “nacque” proprio in questa città. Esattamente qui, nello storico edificio dell'Archiginnasio, dove Galvani fece i celebri esperimenti sulla rana, e nel cui teatro anatomico, ancora visitabile, il nipote Giovanni Aldini ne perfezionò gli studi. Il primo esperimento pubblico su un cadavere da parte dell'Aldini avvenne però in Inghilterra, a Londra, nel 1803. Esperimento di cui Mary Shelley era certo a conoscenza e al termine del quale Gli spettatori temettero che la cosa si sarebbe alzata e avrebbe camminato verso di loro…vi dice nulla? "Fu in una tetra notte di novembre che vidi il compimento delle mie fatiche. Con un'ansia simile all'angoscia radunai gli strumenti con i quali avrei trasmesso la scintilla della vita alla cosa inanimata che giaceva ai miei piedi. Era già l'una del mattino; la pioggia batteva lugubre contro ai vetri, la candela era quasi consumata quando, tra i bagliori della luce morente, la mia creatura aprì gli occhi opachi e giallastri, trasse un respiro faticoso e un moto convulso ne agitò le membra. Come posso descrivere la mia emozione a quella catastrofe, descrivere l'essere miserevole cui avevo dato forma con tanta cura e tanta pena?"

"Dalla breccia dei bastioni rossi corrosi dalla nebbia si aprono silenziosamente le lunghe vie. Il malvagio vapore della nebbia intristisce tra i palazzi velando la cima delle torri, le lunghe vie silenziose e deserte come dopo il saccheggio". Dino Campana, La giornata di un Nevrastenico, Canti Orfici Occorreva questo sfondo a Galvani per scoprire, operando su una rana, il legame indissolubile tra vita ed elettricità, aprendo la via agli studi sui segnali nervosi. Studi che il nipote, Giovanni Aldini, trasferì agli esseri umani. "Il 17 gennaio 1803 il pubblico di Aldini si riunì. Il corpo di George Fosters fu portato in sala da mister Pass e fu sdraiato su una barella nel mezzo della pila galvanica caricata al massimo. Aldini piazzò gli elettrodi sulle tempie del cadavere e aggiustò la corrente. Le dita del morto si mossero e gli occhi si spalancarono rivelando due pupille immobili. Da vero showman Aldini procedette alla seconda fase del suo esperimento. Un elettrodo fu attaccato alla tempia di Fosters e un altro nel suo ano e l'elettricità fu aumentata. Il corpo fece un balzo, la schiena si inarcò e la faccia si raggrinzì in una smorfia orribile. La scena era spettrale, la sala era illuminata solo da candelabri e lampade ad olio e gli spettatori temettero che la cosa si sarebbe alzata e avrebbe camminato verso di loro. Aldini aumentò ancora la corrente e il petto dell'uomo si gonfiò come se stesse respirando: era il momento cruciale e l'emozione salì alle stelle".

“In a sense, all life consists of the colonization of an electric world. But to see that, we have to go back to the very beginning.” William J. Turkel‘s new book traces the emergence and inhabiting of an electric world through the span of human history and beyond. Embracing a “big history” approach to the archive, Spark from the Deep: How Shocking Experiments with Strongly Electric Fish Powered Scientific Discovery (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2013) is a story of the human understanding and use of electricity through the study of strongly-electric catfish, rays, and eels. It's a history of intimacy between life and the electric, humans and instruments, life and death, from the earliest history of human interaction with strongly electric fish through the modern world. Turkel collects a fascinating set of sources and stories on therapeutic, experimental, and conceptual encounters with fish as apparatus, and readers will find wonderful engagements with the work of Darwin, Volta, Galvani, von Humboldt, Faraday, Du Bois-Reymond, and many more writers and thinkers. Spark from the Deep is also the result of a very inventive and thoughtful approach to digital history, and we talk about Turkel's research methodology and engagement with digital tools and sources in the course of the interview. As a result, this will be of interest to listeners who seek stories of the electric, as well as listeners interested more broadly in the craft of history. Enjoy!

Michelle is an associate professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering and computer science at UC Berkeley and the Co director of the Berkeley Sensor and actuator center. [00:01:00] His current research interests include building micro and nano interfaces to cells and organisms and exploring bio derived fabrication methods. Daniel Cohen received his phd from the Joint UC Berkeley and UCLA Department of bioengineering program in 2013 his phd advisor was Michelle Ma harvests. Together they have been working on the fronts project and NSF f Free Grant [00:01:30] F re stands for emerging frontiers and research and innovation fronts is the acronym for flexible, resorbable, organic and nanomaterial therapeutic systems. In part one of our interview, we discuss how they came to the challenge of measuring and understanding the so-called wound field. Here's part one, Michelle [inaudible] and Daniel cone. Welcome to spectrum. Thank you. Thanks. How was it that [00:02:00] electrical fields generated by wounds was discovered? So I think Daniel should take this one cause he's the, he's the group historian on this topic. In fact, he gave us a little dissertation during this thesis talk Speaker 4: in the day when electricity was sort of still a parlor trick. There was a lot of work being done to try to figure out where it was coming from. There was a lot of mysticism associated with it. And this is in the mid to late 17 hundreds and so Galvani is a name most people have heard. Galvanism was a term [00:02:30] coined for his work and what he found was all the work with frog legs. So he used to dissect frogs and could show that if you had dissimilar metals in contact with different parts of the muscle and the nerves, the legs with twitch and amputate the frog leg. So his conclusion was that electricity had something to do with life and their living things were made alive by having this spark of life. And this was a really super controversial idea because for a long time there had been a philosophical debate raging about vitalism versus mechanism, which is the idea that all living things are special because of some intrinsic vital force versus the idea [00:03:00] that physical principles explain life. Speaker 4: So the vitalist really liked this idea that electricity is the spark that makes living things special. There's a lot of dispute about this, but eventually Volta who is right after him and who the vault is named after showed that it was really just the movement of ions and things in salt solutions, but it was a little too late and the mystical aspect of this had come along. So the problem then was that this idea prevailed into the early 18 hundreds and so Galvani his nephew Aldini started doing [00:03:30] these experiments in England where he was given permission to take executed criminals and basically play with the corpses and he was able to create a corpus that would go like this. And raise an arm or wink an eye at an audience. And this was the idea of the reanimated corpse. So people were having a lot of fun with this, but it wasn't clear that it wasn't mystical. Speaker 4: And so this is the long answer to the question, but that's the backdrop where the science starts to come in. So the first thing is Frankenstein gets published out of this, and everybody's getting into the whole vitalism idea [00:04:00] at this point. And Frankenstein was written as a part of a horror story competition. It was almost a joke. But the funny thing is Frankenstein. Well, how would you say Frankenstein? The monster came to life to lightning? Like that's a line. It wasn't a Hollywood fabrication and everyone assumed that. But Mary Shelley never wrote anything about lightning or electricity. She in fact, wrote the technology was too dangerous to describe in texts for the average person. But in her preface, she explains that the whole origin of this idea, and this is where the answer to the question comes from, was that [00:04:30] she had writer's block when she was writing the story and she overheard her husband Percy Shelley and Lord Byron having an argument about work done by Erasmus, Darwin and Erasmus. Speaker 4: Darwin was a big natural philosopher or scientist at the time who was a big vitalist. So he's really into the idea of the spark of life and also this idea of spontaneous generation that where does life come from when you have a compost heap, fruit flies appear. There was an idea that be composing garbage produced life, and that was part of spontaneous generation. And he did a lot of experiments where he'd seal things like wet flour into a bell jar [00:05:00] and to show that organisms came out in a sealed environment and they just didn't know about microorganisms and things like that. So he did a famous experiment where he dehydrated some species called Vermicelli all. Sorry, I made the mistake. I'm about to talk about 40 cello, which is a little organism. And when he added water again, they came back to life. Now, Lord Byron and Percy Shelley didn't understand any of this, and the conversation that Mary Shelley eavesdropped on was one where they said that Erasmus Darwin had taken Vermicelli Pasta, put it inside the Bell Jar, sealed [00:05:30] it, and through some magic of his own allowed it to twitch. Speaker 4: So he had essentially given life to pasta. Now Mary Shelley wrote that she didn't believe any of this was actually really what happened. But this idea of animating the inanimate gave her the idea for Frankenstein. Then she writes the one line that links it to electricity, which is, and if any technology would have done this, it would probably have been galvanism, which is this idea of applying electricity to something. And so that's where this whole idea of life and electricity came from. By that point, the scientists had finally [00:06:00] caught up with all the mysticism and started to do more serious experiments, and that's when Carlo met Tucci in 18 and 30 something found that when you cut yourself, there's some sort of electrical signal at the injury source. And that was his main contribution that was called the wound current or the wound field and then after him was the guy who really formalized the whole thing, which was do Bob Raymond, who was a German electrophysiologist who found that if you have any sort of injury, he could actually measure a current flowing at the side of the injury. Speaker 4: He could show that that changed over time. He cut his own thumb and [00:06:30] measured the current flow and they didn't have an explanation for why it happened, but they knew that it had something to do with the electric chemistry there. This was the birth of electrophysiology and then he went off and did all these things with action potentials in neurons, which is why almost no one's heard about this injury side and the fact that electricity's everywhere in the body normally and it's not mystical, it's electrochemical. We're much more familiar with the neural stuff and this other stuff on the wound side sort of languished until maybe the late 19 hundreds because it was rare. It was weird. It wasn't clearly important [00:07:00] and a lot of the players involved were so caught up in all sorts of other things that we tend to forget about this. So that was the whole long winded history of where the wound field came from. But it's a good story. It is a good story. Yeah. Speaker 5: [inaudible] you are listening to spectrum KALX Berkeley. Our guests are Michael ml harvest and and Daniel Colon. They're both bioengineers in the next segment they talk about the genesis of the fronts [00:07:30] project. Speaker 6: Michelle, when you approached the NSF yeah. For a grant for this idea, how long had you been thinking about it? The smart bandage idea, how far down stream were you with the idea? We had been toying with the idea for quite some time and there's a bit of background to this as well. So my group amongst other things builds flexible electrode systems. [00:08:00] You can call them for neuroscience in your engineering, and most of those systems are intended to record electrical signals across many different points across many electrodes usually honor in the brain. And so we had this basic technology lying around. This is sort of a competence that the group has had for quite awhile. The other thing that was beginning to intrigue us, and I have to credit Daniel for sort of beginning of the discussions and kind of pushing this along in the early years, so Daniel and I have like a tube man club of sitting around thinking of crazy things and [00:08:30] one of the things that Daniel had been interested in was the idea of resorbing or having so some of the materials disappear as they do their job in the body and this is a notion that's become very popular recently actually over the last couple of years in into community in the engineering community in general. Speaker 6: Which brings us to another question I had, which is the difference between resorptionSpeaker 4: and absorption. Absorption might imply that you're taking the components up and they're becoming part of the body. Resorption is really just a very strange [00:09:00] semantic term. That means something like the body's breaking it down or it's breaking down in some form and it's not really the same as that material winding up elsewhere in your tissues. It may just get excreted or it may go somewhere else. So really we use it when we don't really know what's going on. Yeah, we had been looking at this general area and then I think the last piece of the puzzle, I think in our minds looking at the extant literature, the idea that we could take meaningful electrical data from a wound began to really interest us. And so the [00:09:30] two parts of this really are one, can you use portable, resorbable systems? Something like a bandage, you know, something that that isn't going to require you to walk around with a handcart. Speaker 4: Can you use systems like this to measure electrical signals that are relevant to wounds? And then the other question is if you can do that, and if you have, you know, you learn about this, and by the way, we're not the first people to try to do this. There are a number of people that have been measuring electrical signals in the wounds as Daniel set for quite some time. If you can do this, is there a value to [00:10:00] trying to control or modulate that electrical information or those fields or those currents in the wound? Is there a therapeutic value? Perhaps there are scientific value. Is there something you can learn about the way the body works or tissue works? Both of those are open questions and you know we can delve into each of those, but those are really kind of how we think about them separately a little bit. Speaker 4: The flip side is that when we do a lot of this kind of design for medical things, you will want to know what's already happening and how the body handles its own injuries. And this field doesn't just arise passively. So they had no way of knowing [00:10:30] this when it was first discovered. But when you get this electric field, there is a navigational effect for incoming cells to the injury. So it actually helps guide things in like a lighthouse to the wound site. And so a lot of my phd work was showing how you can steer ourselves with a controlled electric field so you can really hurt them like sheep based on how the electric field goes. And that means that that was a source of this bio inspired part of it, which is we're not adding something that's not already there. We're taking something that's already there and we're modulating it to maybe improve. Speaker 4: [00:11:00] So evolutionary tools or things that the body has, it just happened to work well enough for us to survive as a species. It doesn't mean it's optimized and this field tends to go away very quickly. Nobody really knows whether extending the duration of the field would improve the healing or if we could shape it. Maybe you can control how scar tissue forms and things like that. So there's this idea of looking at how the body already heals itself and then figuring out where you might start to control it. And electricity is one of the areas that's really been under utilized in medical technology for the sort of thing. Yeah. I think for those of your audience [00:11:30] that are sort of tech junkies, if you will, the resurgence of this type of thing. Occurrent Lee I think arises because we've gotten very good at building very low power, very small electronics, and there's been a whole slew of new polymers and sort of new flexible substrates that are also conductive or can hold conductors. And so those two things together rekindled interest and trying to build gadgets that sit Speaker 6: on the skin. Or in the NSF case, we're not only doing the skin, but we're trying to develop a tool longterm [00:12:00] for surgeons to do something inside the body. So it'd be nice to be able to leave something that will help you heal, but then it'll be resorts so you don't have to reopen. Right. Speaker 5: Spectrum is a public affairs show on k a l x Berkeley. Our guests are Michelle. My heart is in Daniel Cohen of UC Berkeley. They want to build a smart bandage for wounds. In the next segment, they talk about the focus of their research. Speaker 6: [00:12:30] So in your approach to the NSF, was there some sort of focus, there's a technological focus and an application focus? The technological focus for the NSF was to point out that there was a lot of fundamental engineering science that had to be done to produce the type of systems that could do this. You know, we're looking at resorbable batteries are real parts wise, how you would build these systems, what polymers you'd use, what the rates of resorption. There's a lot of just fundamental stuff going on. If you posit that there'll be value to [00:13:00] these kinds of things. That's one focus as the other focus. I would say application wise we're looking at two things. The most ambitious is that you could develop systems that a surgeon could use for internal wounds. So the dream is a surgeon is, for example, let's say you have to resect the part of your intestine. Speaker 6: You then have to fuse the two parts that are left behind. There are methods for doing this and there's still research going on into what we know. The clinical methodology for this. It would be very useful if you could leave behind something that [00:13:30] could tell you, if nothing else, the state of how that is healing but would then go away because you're certainly not going to go back and open somebody's abdomen to take out a little piece of sensor that was doing something to intestine. Right? That'd be a not a good idea, and so that idea, that dream that you could leave behind, very small, very thin things that could take data if nothing else. Take data is really what was one of the applications. The other one is surface wounds. There are lots of surface wounds caused by illness. For example, advanced diabetes produces a [00:14:00] lot of problems in the extremities and wounds that are chronic that don't heal very well. Speaker 6: There's just a lot of ongoing interest in surface wounds and not just the technologies for understanding how they may be healing, but in things that maybe could help heal those surface wounds. Those are our full side view welders. I think of them as there are specific things we want to show we can do with our partners at UCLA, but there's also an entire wealth of engineering science that has to be done to build the fundamental. So the NSF was okay with that broad [00:14:30] a portfolio of research. Well, so that's sort of what their mandate is to go broad like that. Cause that seems like you're, you're doing stuff. Speaker 4: I think their main concern here is that they specifically discourage healthcare applications as NIH can fund those. But the difference is that what engineers have found for a long time now is that we don't actually know how to engineer biology. So any technology brings quantification Speaker 6: and an engineering mindset to solving this, like tissue engineering, growing organs. We don't have a lot of engineering for that. But if we start [00:15:00] to monitor everything we can, that chemical signals mechanical, electrical, we build up a set of stimulus and response type rules. We understand how to perturb these systems. So in the same way that you might build a bridge according to a manual of how you build a bridge and how you look at the loads in it and the ways of building a bridge, we might someday build organs. So if that's the pitch, that's much more fundamental science and that's really where it has a medical application. But we can't do it without science and engineering principles that just don't exist right now. There's two points I should mention. First of all, the key is this work [00:15:30] is really looking at the fundamentals of the engineering and the science. Speaker 6: We certainly have our foot into clinical side because I think it informs some of this, right? So that what you're doing is relevant so that someday you could go down that path so you're not in isolation because if you're not assuming that you're headed in this great direction. Exactly. And then you find clinical guys saying less clinically. Right. So the other were very good. And the second thing is that, um, we're funded under a slightly broader grant mechanism than usual. So we have a, what's called an NSF. Every, I think this is emerging frontiers and research and innovation I think [00:16:00] is what it is and these are sort of headline or marquee type thing. So we're very lucky that we were awarded one of these and so I think the NSF has really looking for this broad, far reaching hard-hitting effort. I think there's a good point to mention that this project is really a big collaboration between a number of us and I'd like to mention who they are because some of the material work has done by very talented people in the department on a rds and the Vec Subramanian are two professors in the ECS department and they're very well known for flexible printed systems and [00:16:30] the materials that go into them and we work also with Shovel Roy at UCF and Mike Harrison and Mike is a sort of brilliant pediatric surgeon and shovel. Speaker 6: Roy's well known for the technologies he builds at the interface with clinical need. It's really the fact that all these people come together that we're building all of these tools. Speaker 7: [inaudible]Speaker 3: spectrum is a science and technology show on KALX Berkeley. We are talking with Michelle Mull Harvest Daniel Cohen. [00:17:00] They are researching the electrical field that is generated by wounds in mammals. Their hope is to collect meaningful data from sensors embedded in bandages placed on wounds. Speaker 6: If you approached interpreting and analyzing the electrical field data that you're getting out of the wounds in an animal right now we're being very cautious. We started a first few experiments with rodents over the last six months. What we've [00:17:30] built is a, is a series of systems. You can think of them as insulators with lots of little electrodes all over them. An array of of little electrodes. They're on order of a centimeter or less in terms of you can think of a postage stamp, maybe a bit smaller. We have different varieties of them. Some are stiff, some are very flexible. You can think of it as contact lenses or transparency paper, that kind of thing. And these arrays are connected to electrical sensing equipment. There's a miniaturize a little board that runs everything [00:18:00] and sends data to a block and all this data is collected and what we're currently looking at as a variety of different signals on both open wounds. Speaker 6: So if I, for example, cut the skin and on pressure wounds, pressure wounds or something that people that don't see clinics very often or hospitals aren't familiar with but in fact are huge, huge problem in hospitals right now. Then we lay these arrays over the tissue and we measure a variety of different things. One thing we measure what's known as electrical impedance between different [00:18:30] points on the array and you can think of electrical impedance as how much resistance to an electric current that tissue might produce. It's not a steady current, it's a time bearing current, so we sort of wiggle the current on and off, on and off negative, positive, negative, a sinusoidal and how quickly that current responds and how much of it there is. That allows us to calculate the impedance and there's a lot you can tell from that. You can tell whether things are very wet and conductive. Speaker 6: You can tell whether the tissue is tight knit, so that doesn't let things through a oily. You can tell whether there [00:19:00] might be changes in from one tissue to another. You can infer things about what tissues are might be underneath. The other thing we measure is actually electric potential when the wounds are immediately after they're made. We try to look at what kind of potentials arise and how they're changing. So right now that's in terms of measurement. That's really what we're looking at it. And another thing I should point out as we do these measurements as a function of frequency across a wide range of frequency spectrum up to hundreds of kilohertz. And that's sort of the rapidity with which we wiggle the signal because different components in the tissue [00:19:30] will respond differently at different legal frequencies. Once we have that complete plot, we can look at the difference between them and by to see whether we can build models that tell us, oh well we've, you see this type of distribution. Speaker 6: There's a in tech skin for example. So the dream, in this case, you put your bandaid on and your doctor checks his eye, his or her iPhone every 12 to 24 hours and just gets a different little map of how it's working without ever having to remove the dressing. How are you doing in understanding what those signals mean in terms of healing? [00:20:00] But we just had a meeting, they're doing great. They've basically collected a great deal of data on the latest set of wounds they did and now they're in fact proposing models and seeing how the data fits. They're fitting their models to the data to try to use those fits as ways of discriminating different types of tissues. So we're in the middle of it right now. I couldn't tell you much. We're still putting all that story together for publication. So, and are you able to leverage the work that other people are doing? Oh, absolutely. Sure. Well, I mean you always do that. Like I said, nothing is in a vacuum, right? So absolutely. We follow [00:20:30] the literature and, and we build off of what other people have found and try to add our own contributions. That's, that's how it works. Maybe these ideas came from discoveries from the 18 hundreds and then later on in the 1980s onwards, a bunch of really good developmental biologists have really pioneered a lot of this and gone down as, as showing that Speaker 4: even in an embryo you can detect changes in electrical potential at the surface of the embryo where limbs will form and things like that. So there's a huge amount of stuff out there that gave us the idea for the original thing, but we're barely scratching the surface. [00:21:00] We were technologist, right? We're engineers. So part of one thing and figure it out. Yeah. So the idea of trying to analyze the wound field data, do you have to solve that problem first before you can take on anything else? Like trying to instigate the healing? Yeah. Yeah, I would say so. You would never put this in the body without knowing, knowing that a real lot works. But on the surface it's a different healing mechanism than say a fracture, but it's still the idea that we don't necessarily know what the cause and [00:21:30] effect is yet. So we have to show that getting a field out relates to some state that we can say the wound is in and that we can intelligently put a field back in that actually helps. So we need some metric of success. And without that metric, that number that says the wound is doing better or worse, we're not confident saying that our stimulation is helping. So that's why getting this data first is really important. Speaker 6: The parameter space is fairly large, right? To number of things you could possibly change. Some of the effects are very subtle. And so just willy nilly going [00:22:00] in there and saying, oh, I applied some fields, you know, likely not gonna be very useful. And then there's another subtlety, which is that there are probably clinical contexts in which this is of limited utility, even if it works. And so that is, uh, something we spend a lot of time thinking about. So let me give you an example. Let's say I told you I can make that little cut on your knees heal 5% faster with a $15 bandaid. I'm pretty sure you're not going to buy a $15 [inaudible] except maybe once for the novelty of it. You know it tickles. But [00:22:30] there are contexts where, and Daniel alluded to this earlier, for example, scar formation is a big deal, right? Speaker 6: How a scar forms and the trajectory of the wound healing for certain load-bearing wounds of really big deal, right? Think of your abdomen if you had to go in there and hurt those muscles or hernia. And there are many things like this and so if, and I want to be very careful to say if if it was founded, electrical interventions can affect that type of healing in a way that produces a useful outcome, right? Much better scar developments so that your load bearing properties are [00:23:00] maybe not as good as the original, but a lot better than just letting it sit around with a dressing. That'll be a very big deal. But that's a very big space, right? Speaker 4: And that's why we split it into this in Vivo work on monitoring the surface and wound properties and in vitro work where we have cells and tissues and culture where we can directly stimulate them in culture in a very controlled environment and watch exactly how they respond to different shapes of fields and types of fields and come up with a way of describing how they behave. That doesn't require the Nvivo work. So we have two parallel tracks [00:23:30] right now and hopefully we can put them together. Speaker 5: [inaudible] be sure to catch part two of this interview with Michelle Maha Urbis and Daniel Cohen on the next spectrum in two weeks.

A feature of spectrum is to present news stories we find interesting. Rick Karnofsky and Rene Rao present our news in a letter published in January 15th nature. James us or would a locomotor biomechanist at the Royal Veterinary College at the University of London and colleagues explain why Birds Migrate In v-shaped [00:27:00] formations. The team fitted several northern bald ibis is with gps trackers and accelerometers to measure wing movement. They found that the birds positioned themselves in optimum positions that agree with their aerodynamic models. Further the birds flap in phase with one another when in such permissions instead of the antifreeze flapping, they performed when following immediately behind each other. This in phase flapping maximizes lifted the plot [00:27:30] and is surprising as a team noted. The aerodynamic accomplishments were previously not thought possible for birds because of the complex flight dynamics and sensory feedback that would be required to perform such a feat. Speaker 9: The tenuous place in the human family tree of artifice guest room, it is a 4.4 million year old African primate has recently been solidified. Fossil remains Ardipithecus Ramidus or rd as a species is known first discovered by UC Berkeley [00:28:00] Professor Tim White and his team in Ethiopia in the 1990s and have proven a consternation to classify ever sense rd displays an unusual mixture of human and ape traits. Fossils reveals small human like teeth and upper pelvis adapted to bipedal motion, but a disproportionately small brain and grasping large toes, best suited for climbing trees. Scientists split over whether rd was our distant relative, essentially an ape that retained a few human features from along a common ancestor [00:28:30] or our close cousin, possibly even an ancestor. Recently Tim white among many others coauthored a paper with Arizona State Universities, William Kimball in which they successfully linked the rd to Australopithecus and thereby to humans. The team examine the basis of rd skulls and found surprising similarities to human and Australopithecines skulls indicating that those had already been may have been small. It was far more similar to a hominids than an apes Speaker 7: in in Speaker 9: [00:29:00] the music heard during the show was written and produced by Alex Simon.

Martha explains how experiments with dead frogs and live wires led to the invention of the battery, and inspired a couple of familiar English words.I had to change the batteries in my flashlight the other day, and that makes think, as it always does, of Luigi Galvani. No, really, it does. Let me explain: Galvani was an 18th-century Italian physician and physicist whose experiments accidentally paved the way for modern batteries.The focus of his research? Galvani experimented with dead frogs and live wires. In 1791, he published a paper describing how he'd touched a dead frog's leg with one wire, and touched another wire to both the frog and the first wire. When the second wire made contact, the lifeless body jerked. Galvani believed these convulsions were the result of 'animal electricity,' a mysterious substance secreted by the body. What Galvani failed to grasp was that by touching wires made of two different metals to the frog -- and to each other -- he'd simply created a closed circuit.At the time, Galvani's report was nothing short of astonishing. As one of his contemporaries wrote in a letter: 'Now here the experiments are also repeated in ladies' salons, and they furnish a good spectacle to all.' A generation later, Mary Shelley would write her novel Frankenstein, and specifically credit Galvani's experiments as an inspiration. But his work also inspired further research by another Italian scientist, one who didn't buy the idea of 'animal electricity.' His name was Alessandro Volta. He suspected that the frog's body didn't secrete electricity, it conducted it. Soon Volta was stacking pieces of zinc and silver and, instead of animal tissue, cardboard soaked in brine. The electrifying result was the first 'voltaic pile,' forerunner of the batteries we use today. As you may have guessed, Volta's name lives on in our word for that unit of electrical measurement, the volt. Despite his scientific mistake, Galvani achieved a measure of linguistic immortality as well.
