Materials scientist and physicist Guosong Hong is an expert in getting materials to do remarkable things. Recently, he and collaborators used a common food dye found in snack chips to turn living tissue transparent, allowing light to penetrate through skin and muscle. Hong is now working to realize a new age of medical imaging that lets doctors see deep into the body – without surgery. It's a miracle of physics but it could change medicine, Hong tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

What is it that makes photography so enthralling? When you think about it, there isn't anything that we photograph that we can't just look at. Certainly, photography has a sort of convenience to it. Once you take a photograph, you don't have to return to the spot you took it because now you have a visual record. But if that is all photography was, merely a visual record, then most people wouldn't find it so interesting. I think that a large part of the interest comes from the way the human eye works. Simply put, we just don't see the same way a camera does. A photograph gives us a whole new perspective on the subject... Podcast Notes: https://www.moneymakerphotography.com/understanding-human-eye/

A., He, Z., van Zyl, T., Segre, A., Hageman, G., Sanes, J. R. Abstract: Although the visual system extends through the brain, most vision loss originates from defects in the eye. Its central element is the neural retina, which senses light, processes visual signals, and transmits them to the rest of the brain through the optic nerve (ON). Surrounding the retina are numerous other structures, conventionally divided into anterior and posterior segments. Here we used high-throughput single nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) to classify and characterize cells in the extraretinal components of the posterior segment: ON, optic nerve head (ONH), peripheral sclera, peripapillary sclera (PPS), choroid, and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Defects in each of these tissues are associated with blinding diseases, for example, glaucoma (ONH and PPS), optic neuritis (ON), retinitis pigmentosa (RPE), and age-related macular degeneration (RPE and choroid). From ~151,000 single nuclei, we identified 37 transcriptomically distinct cell types, including multiple types of astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, fibroblasts, and vascular endothelial cells. Our analyses revealed a differential distribution of many cell types among distinct structures. Together with our previous analyses of the anterior segment and retina, the new data complete a Version 1 cell atlas of the human eye. We used this atlas to map the expression of greater than 180 genes associated with the risk of developing glaucoma, which is known to involve ocular tissues in both anterior and posterior segments as well as neural retina. Similar methods can be used to investigate numerous additional ocular diseases, many of which are currently untreatable. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.12.01.518717v1?rss=1 Authors: Radulescu, A., van Opheusden, B., Callaway, F., Griffiths, T. L., Hillis, J. M. Abstract: The nature of eye movements during visual search has been widely studied in psychology and neuroscience. Virtual reality (VR) paradigms provide an opportunity to test whether computational models of search can predict naturalistic search behavior. However, existing ideal observer models are constrained by strong assumptions about the structure of the world, rendering them impractical for modeling the complexity of environments that can be studied in VR. To address these limitations, we frame naturalistic visual search as a problem of allocating limited cognitive resources, formalized as a meta-level Markov decision process (meta-MDP) over a representation of the environment encoded by a deep neural network. We train reinforcement learning agents to solve the meta-MDP, showing that the agents' optimal policy converges to a classic ideal observer model of search developed for simplified environments. We compare the learned policy with human gaze data from a visual search experiment conducted in VR, finding a qualitative and quantitative correspondence between model predictions and human behavior. Our results suggest that gaze behavior in naturalistic visual search is consistent with rational allocation of limited cognitive resources. Copy rights belong to original authors.

This ID the Future continues Miracle of Man author Michael Denton's conversation with host Eric Anderson about his latest book. The focus of this capstone work in his Privileged Species series is, as the subtitle explains, The Fine-Tuning of Nature for Human Existence. Here Denton and Anderson dive deeper into the book's argument that science has uncovered multiple ensembles of fitness for creatures much like ourselves—land-going, airbreathing, intelligent bipeds capable of controlling fire and developing new technologies. In other words, it's not just a handful of things about nature that appear fine tuned for our existence. It's a long list of things, and indeed, a long list of interdependent ensembles of prior fitness—what Denton sometimes refers to as a “primal Read More › Source

On this ID the Future, geologist Casey Luskin discusses biogeography and the problems it poses for the idea of universal common descent. To make it work, evolutionists have to propose, for instance, that old world monkeys rafted across the Atlantic from Africa to South America on a natural raft. Really? That's some raft. And how did the monkeys not starve to death? Or die of thirst? They couldn't drink salty ocean water, after all. And talk about a genetic bottleneck! That's just one of several problems Luskin raises with the idea that all species gradually evolved from a universal common ancestor. In his conversation with host Emily Reeves, he also touches on the problem of convergence, as when two creatures Read More › Source

Cognitively speaking since philosophy belongs in the lives of everyone and it helps us solve our problems whether mundane or abstract, it also helps us make better decisions by developing our critical thinking. It is because of this ethos that truth matters both to us as individuals and to society as a whole and as individuals, being truthful connotes that we can grow and mature, learning from our mistakes. For society, truthfulness makes social bonds, and lying and hypocrisy break them.

The human body is one of God's greatest creations and designs. We can use it as a tool to show the design of God: the great Designer of all things. So, would you pray with me in praise to God for the design of the human eye?
Researchers built an artificial eye that mimics human eye structure and functions. A team of scientists from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology created the ElectroChemical Eye or EC-Eye, which is almost the same shape and size as a real eye. The EC-Eye can see in a dimly lit environment just like human eyes, but it can process light changes faster. According to one of the engineers, the artificial eye can help people with vision impairment, and it can be used to develop humanoid robots in the future. The synthetic eye contains light-sensitive sensors that let it absorb light. It also has a lens that directs the light to specialized nanowires. These wires are connected to a computer, which processes the light into images. This mechanism mimics how the biological iris and retina work. The iris controls the amount of light that goes through the eye, while the retina transforms light into neural signals and delivers these signals to the brain for visual perception. The current version of the EC-Eye comes with a low resolution because it only has a few nanowires. However, the device's developers said that they can further improve it and give it the ability to outperform human eyes. According to researchers, increasing the number of nanowires in the EC-Eye by up to 10 times more will give it the ability to tell the difference between visible light and infrared radiation. This will allow the device's user to see greater distances, perceive smaller objects, and even have night vision.

Abstract: Purpose: We examined the relationship between axial length and the thickness and volume of the ganglion cell layer (GCL) of the retina, and related these measures to the size of the optic chiasm. Methods: We used optical coherence tomography to measure the thickness of the GCL over a 50 degree extent of the horizontal meridian in 50 normally-sighted participants with a wide range of axial lengths. Using a model eye informed by individual biometry, we converted GCL thickness to tissue volume per square degree. The volume of the optic chiasm was measured for 40 participants using magnetic resonance imaging. Results: While GCL thickness decreases with increasing axial length, there is a positive relationship between GCL tissue volume and axial length, leading us to conclude that increasing axial length is associated with decreased retinal ganglion cell packing, increased cell size, or both. We characterize how retinal ganglion cell tissue varies systematically in volume and spatial distribution as a function of axial length. This model allows us to remove the effect of axial length from individual difference measures of GCL volume. We find that variation in GCL volume correlates well with the size of the optic chiasm as measured using magnetic resonance imaging. Conclusions: Our results provide the volume of ganglion cell tissue in the retina, adjusted for the effects of axial length upon ganglion cell size and/or packing. The resulting volume measure accounts for individual differences in the size of the optic chiasm, supporting its use to characterize the post-retinal visual pathway.

We return with a highly esoteric discussion on Blade Runner 2049, the 2017 sequel to Ridley Scott's cult-classic from 1982. Despite not doing well at the Box Office, this film succeeds in artfully suggesting a number of stories within one, and like the first film, leaves the audience feeling they have witnessed something profound. Set in the titular year in dystopian Los Angeles, the film follows the replicant LAPD officer 'K' as he uncovers hidden evidence that replicants are capable of reproducing autonomously. After being ordered by his superiors to investigate and destroy the evidence, K is led to believe that he himself may be the offspring of a union between replicants, and so disobeys his orders in search of his origins. We start by summarising the plot and the story, before diving into the multi-layered elements of the film, looking at the heavy use of biblical motifs and creation mythologies in both the script and the subtext. As humanity has fallen from grace in foolishly pursuing godhood, the next epoch of creation is born, and so the film is replete with wordplay and symbolic motifs which elucidate these ideas. We discuss the film's focus on feminine imagery, especially following the many negative reviews given by feminist critics. We deconstruct the notion that the film is overtly sexist and gratuitous in its imagery, by pointing out the deeper symbolic significance in these motifs. The film is both critiquing the objectification of women whilst also celebrating the goddess archetype and venerating the full range of feminine principles. We also spend time talking about the various characters, in terms of what they represent and how they develop throughout the story. The ultimate journey of K in particular is heavily suggestive of Gnostic principles and ideas, though we also touch on the characters of LUV and JOI, who at various points reveal a higher truth or meaning to his journey into selfhood. We touch on a myriad of other topics in this extended podcast, from Silicon Valley execs and the transhumanist demiurge Niander Wallace, to questions of humanity, to the artful cinematography and soundtrack of the film, plus much more. Please excuse the low audio quality. Topics discussed include: Blade Runner, Los Angeles, Dystopia, Environmentalism, Synthetic Foods, Synthetic Society, Replicants, Artificial Intelligence, Original Film, Sequels, Artful production, Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Jared Leto, JOI, LUV, Niander Wallace, Wallace Corporation, Tyrell Corporation, LAPD, DNA, Regeneration, Reproduction, Miracles, Biblical Themes, Adam & Eve, Garden of Eden, Genesis, Creation, Gnosticism, Pyramids, Pharaohs, Godhood, Demigod, Demiurge, Light, Symbolism, Geometry, Human Eye, Feminist Critiques, Goddess Archetypes, Sexuality, Objectification, Veneration, Slavery, Oppression, Self Awareness, Las Vegas, Holograms, Earth Mother Archetype, Masculine vs Feminism, Search for Truth, Materialism, Infertility, Revolution, Wordplay, Secret Societies, Sacrifice, Truth, Love vs Joy, Techniques of Cinema and Sound, Quality of film and music.
