The coaches agree that heat acclimation can be a good alternative if altitude training is not possible. Both heat and altitude acclimation increase blood volume, which can help with performance at altitude. However, heat acclimation should not be seen as a replacement for altitude acclimation, as the effects are not as significant. The coaches also discuss the stress on the nervous system during heat and altitude acclimation, and the importance of managing intensity during workouts. They also touch on the genetic variation in response to altitude and the potential benefits of heat acclimation over altitude acclimation. The conversation then transitions to discussing VO2 max intervals and how to approach them. The coaches advise against taking breaks in the middle of intervals and recommend adjusting the power target if necessary. They also emphasize the importance of pacing and mental strategies to push through the challenging moments of VO2 max intervals. Keywords heat acclimation, altitude training, blood volume, nervous system, intensity, genetic variation, VO2 max intervals, pacing, mental strategies Takeaways Heat acclimation can be a substitute for altitude training if altitude acclimation is not possible. Both heat and altitude acclimation increase blood volume, which can benefit performance at altitude. Managing intensity during heat and altitude acclimation is important to avoid excessive stress on the nervous system. There is genetic variation in response to altitude, and individual differences should be considered when planning acclimation strategies. During VO2 max intervals, it is important to pace yourself and avoid taking breaks in the middle of intervals. Adjusting the power target and using mental strategies can help push through the challenging moments of VO2 max intervals.

Dr. Corey Watson is an Associate Professor at the University of Louisville. His work focuses on characterising and cataloguing antibody genetic diversity in human and mouse to better understand disease susceptibility and clinical health outcomes. Dr. William Lees is a researcher at University of London. His work focuses on developing Adaptive Immune Receptor (AIR) reference sets for diverse species and the annotation of experimental sequence data. In this episode we talk about the recent work by the Germline Database Working Group of the AIRR-Community. The accuracy of V and J gene segment assignment improves with the quality of the reference germline set. The accurate assignment is critical for characterization of somatic hypermutation. We discuss the challenges in creating a database to hold all relevant and potentially relevant germline information, especially in the light of increased discovery rate through technological advances and improved analysis pipelines. We also reflect on the complexity in handling personalised germline reference sets. The episode is hosted by Dr. Ulrik Stervbo and Dr. Zhaoqing Ding.

Drei Gläser Milch sollte jeder Mensch am Tag für eine gesunde Ernährung zu sich nehmen - so hieß es jedenfalls lange! Doch in den vergangenen Jahren haben immer mehr Menschen aufgehört, Milch und Milchprodukte zu konsumieren, viele von ihnen aus Tierwohlgründen. Wissenschaftsjournalistin Yasmin Appelhans hat sich die Forschung rund um das Thema Milch angesehen. Im Gespräch mit Host Maja Bahtijarević erklärt sie, warum Menschen überhaupt einmal angefangen haben, Milch zu trinken und was sich dadurch für sie verändert hat. Außerdem geht es darum, ob Milch wirklich gesund ist oder nicht sogar krank machen kann - und um die Frage, wie sich unser Milchkonsum eigentlich auf das Klima auswirkt.

M., Beer, S., Kroll, T., Neumaier, B., Bauer, A., Landolt, H.-P., Aeschbach, D., Elmenhorst, D. Abstract: The EEG alpha rhythm (8-13 Hz) is one of the most salient human brain activity rhythms. Spectral power in the alpha range in wakefulness and sleep varies among individuals based on genetical predisposition, yet knowledge about the underlying genes is scarce. The EEG alpha oscillations are related to cerebral energy metabolism and modulated by the level of attention and vigilance. The neuromodulator adenosine is directly linked to energy metabolism as product of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) breakdown and acts as a sleep promoting molecule by activitating A1 and A2A adenosine receptors. We quantified EEG oscillatory alpha power in wakefulness and sleep, as well as A1 adenosine receptor availability by positron emission tomography with 18F-CPFPX, in a large sample of healthy volunteers carrying different alleles of gene variant rs5751876 of ADORA2A encoding A2A adenosine receptors. Oscillatory alpha power was higher in homozygous C-allele carriers (n = 27, 11 females) compared to heterozygous and homozygous carriers of the T-allele (n(C/T) = 23, n(T/T) = 5, 13 females) (F(18,37) = 2.35, p = 0.014, Wilk's Lambda = 0.487). Across considered brain regions an effect of ADORA2A genotype on A1 adenosine receptor binding potential was found (F(18,40) = 2.62, p = 0.006, Wilk's Lambda = 0.459) and after correction for multiple testing this effect was shown to be significant for circumscribed occipital region of calcarine fissures. A correlation between individual differences in oscillatory alpha power and adenosine receptor availability was found for the subgroup of female participants only. In conclusion: a genetic variation in the adenosinergic system affects individual alpha power, although a direct modulatory effect via the A1AR has been demonstrated for females only.

Africa is thought to be the ancestral homeland of all modern human populations within the past 300,000 years. It is also a region of tremendous cultural, linguistic, climatic, and genetic diversity. Despite the important role that African populations have played in human history, they remain one of the most underrepresented groups in human genomics studies. A comprehensive knowledge of patterns of variation in African genomes is critical for a deeper understanding of human genomic diversity, the identification of functionally important genetic variation, the genetic basis of adaptation to diverse environments and diets, and the origins of modern humans. We have characterized genomic variation in thousands of ethnically and geographically diverse Africans in order to reconstruct human population history and local adaptation to variable environments and have identified candidate loci that play a role in alcohol metabolism and skin color.

We are experiencing an accelerated rate of loss of species due to human activities. This anthropogenic phenomenon extends beyond extinction. It encompasses an expanded loss of biodiversity as the genetic diversity of species diminish, reducing gene pools to “gene puddles.” We know details of species extinctions events from the fossil record, historical record, and from ancient DNA studies, and that historical processes shape extinction risk. Habitat loss and changing eco-environmental conditions, competition, and other factors produce genomic impacts, also influencing extinction risk. The legacy of past events impacts resiliency of species in the current environment in interpretable ways. Demographic trajectories reveal vulnerability to extinction. Remarkable advances in genomics technologies portend a deeper understanding of the evolution of life and the vulnerability of extant species to changes now taking place through human agency.

Huberman Lab Podcast Notes Key Takeaways Neural circuits (not individual brain areas) trigger aggressionAggression is not a switch, it's a process with a beginning, middle, and endAggression actually hinges on the hormone estrogenTestosterone in and of itself does not trigger aggression – testosterone aromatized into estrogen within the brain and binding to estrogen receptors in area of the brain that leads to aggressionEstrogen triggers aggression in brain and testosterone increases the pressure toward an aggressive episodeRecipe for aggression & reactivity: increased cortisol, reduced serotonin, short daysSelf-regulation is a key component of whether someone will engage in aggressive behaviorTools to reduce aggressive tendencies and impulsivity: pay attention to how daylight changes makes you feel, supplement with omega-3, supplement with ashwagandha in 2 week on/2week off cycles, get sunlight early in the day, try a hot bath or sauna, avoid beverages that contain both alcohol and caffeineRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgThis episode I describe the neural mechanisms that activate and control aggressive states and beahviors and the role of hormones—estrogen and testosterone—in mediating violent and and/or competive aggression. I also describe tools that can be used to modulate the factors that have been shown to ‘prime' an individual for aggression, including sunlight, estrogen sensitivity, competition within social settings, and overall stress levels, and the hormone cortisol. I discuss how substances such as caffeine and alcohol can impact impulsive behaviors, and how nutrition and supplementation can be used to regulate mood and aggression.
