We meet artist Aubrey Levinthal from her studio in Philadelphia!!!Softly-rendered portraits by Aubrey Levinthal explore contemporary psychology. In the works, figures go about familiar daily routines - eating, sleeping and daydreaming. The artist is inspired by a range of modernist painters, from portraitist Alice Neel to collagist Romare Bearden and modernist David Hockney. Her intentionally muted palette of predominantly grey tones is created by layering light washes of oil paint onto panels, and then scraping them down with a blade. This technique renders the skin of her characters as almost translucent - either emerging from, or dissolving into, their surfaces.Much of Levinthal's recent work relates to the COVID-19 pandemic. The loneliness and claustrophobia of social isolation is told through melancholic facial expressions and slumped postures. Recurring motifs, such as browning bananas and unfinished meals, allude to the passing of time, while irregularities in proportion and perspective engage the ways in which a home becomes strange when you spend all your time within it. These details embody the crux of Levinthal's practice - how we inhabit spaces, and how they inhabit us.Levinthal's paintings focus on her own daily interiority and the quotidian, mostly situated in the home. More recently, Levinthal reflects on ones' relationship to the outside world and moves the psychology away from the isolated self to a more unknown drifting space. The paintings are infused with more daylight, colour has become brighter, and the figures are larger. Shared environments, such as neighborhood coffee shops, yoga studios, hospitals, hotels and pools are fraught with nuanced tension and personal connection. Levinthal heightens the psychological space between observing and knowing. The paintings explore a sense of insecurity, self-reflection and curiosity in collective spaces. In Bagel Line (2022), a group of friends situated outside a bagel shop huddle closely together in winter coats. Their expressions range from anxious to annoyed to eager highlighting ones' own duality. The artist projects an interior life onto these strangers: a barista, a person standing in line, a blue-haired teenager at a take-out counter, or a shopper in a clothing store. Within the paintings, objects take on abstract shapes and act as barriers. In Crab Shack (2022), two brown paper bags give the impression of a wall in front of a pensive young woman. Levinthal draws inspiration from the Renassiance period to Modernists such as, Mary Fedden (1915-2012), Milton Avery (1885-1965) and Fairfield Porter (1907-1975). Levinthal's tenderly observed paintings illuminate the strangeness of daily interiority and introspection. In Yoga Mat (2022), the viewer is confronted with a lone woman in a yoga pose. The figure also doubles as an ancient sculpture, most evident in the shapes used and the manner in which the feet are depicted, as if resembling stone. This painting was directly inspired by the Egyptian sculpture titled Statue of Sitepehu (1479-1458 BCE), which is part of the permanent collection at the Penn Museum, Philadelphia. The artist lives and works in Philadelphia, PA and is represented by Monya Rowe Gallery, NY.Follow @AubreyLevinthal on Instagram and their official website https://aubreylevinthal.com/ Follow their gallery: @Monya_Rowe_GalleryAubrey's new work is included in group show 'Close' at GRIMM Gallery curated by Talk Art co-host Russell Tovey from 4th March - 6th April, 2023 2 Bourdon Street, London (UK).

David Levinthal is a New York–based photographer whose work explores the relationship between photographic imagery and the fantasies, myths, events and characters that shape the collective American consciousness. Refining a personal photographic style and vision, Levinthal utilizes toy figures and structures as subject matter for the creation of a surrogate reality. Levinthal has endeavored to create a 'fictional world' that simultaneously calls into question our sense of truth and credibility.Levinthal's photographs of soldiers at war, cowboys and Barbie dolls reference and reexamine the iconic images and historical events that have shaped postwar American culture. Through his expansive series such as Hitler Moves East, Modern Romance, Wild West and History, Levinthal's photographs also reveal the false memories and stereotypes that lurk beneath the surface, challenging viewers to confront the stories we tell about ourselves and our country. Levinthal is a recipient of the National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and a Guggenheim Fellowship, and his photographs reside in the permanent collections of New York's The Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Art Institute of Chicago, LACMA, the National Gallery of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC, among others.In 1997, The International Center for Photography in New York presented the first retrospective of his work titled David Levinthal: Work from 1977 – 1996. The George Eastman Museum in Rochester, New York, organized the most recent retrospective, David Levinthal: War, Myth, Desire, in 2018. And In 2019, the Smithsonian American Art Museum organized American Myth & Memory: David Levinthal Photographs to showcase seventy-four color photographs.

Mike grew up in the looming shadows of an early Silicon Valley, before it developed its now-infamous reputation. Being surrounded by such entrepreneurial-minded people, including within his own home, Mike felt the pressure, yet was also humble enough to realize how lucky he was to know so many smart minds. He attended Stanford with a plan to go into engineering, yet after relocating to the Boston area where his brother was attending college, he began to explore the world of venture capital. Forty years later, Mike hasn't looked back. He's been involved in countless corporate successes, although he will admit he was a part of far more failures. Now living in Park City, he talks of going back to school to reignite some of his early passions, while also looking for the next early-stage business opportunity.
Eugene Shakhnovich is a Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Harvard University. Head of Shakhnovich Biophysics Lab. The research of Professor Eugene Shakhnovich and his group is directed towards understanding the basic principles of protein folding and structural and dynamical properties of other complex polymer systems. Some of the questions addressed are: 1) what is required for polypeptide chains to have a unique structure? 2) how is this structure encoded by aminoacid sequence ("prediction problem")? and 3) how does the polypeptide chain form this unique structure in a finite time (the so-called "Levinthal paradox")? The approach to a solution of these problems is based on utilization and development of modern analytical methods of statistical mechanics such as replicas, renormalization group etc., and numeric studies of non-traditional lattice models with exhaustively enumerated conformations. Other fields of interest to Professor Shakhnovich include investigation of microdomain structure in random polymer melts and diffusion-controlled processes in living cells. Current projects include: 1) Development of a new approach to and algorithm for the prediction of stable conformations of a protein, based on a combination of statistical mechanical methods such as mean-field theory, exhaustive enumeration of all conformations within a given fold, and Monte-Carlo dynamical simulation. 2) Development of the quantitative theory of protein stability, which takes into account the majority of interactions in protein molecules. 3) Monte-Carlo simulations of folding of polypeptides in which conformations are exhaustively enumerated. These simulations make it possible to address the "Levinthal paradox" and develop a theory of kinetics of protein folding. Within this project also is an evolutionary question of the way in which sequences that are able to fold evolved. 4) Theory of microdomain structure in random copolymers and analysis of unusual phases in such systems.

Rep. Blake Moore violated federal law by failing to report up to $1.1 million in stock trades. But, for that he was fined just $200 by the House Ethics Committee.Dave Levinthal, Deputy Washington Editor for Insider.com, who broke the Moore story, says these laws are in place for a reason.“It was put in place to defend against potential conflicts of interest or just give the public the ability to see what members of Congress are doing in terms of their personal stock trades at a time when they're being lobbied by the very companies they themselves may invest in,” Leventhal said. “These companies many times will have tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars at stake with the decisions being made by the government, including contracts the government hands out to them. There's a tangled web of financial interests here, and this was put in place to shine sunlight and provide transparency,” Levinthal added. He also says the small fine Moore was required to pay shows how poorly Congress does when it comes to regulating themselves. “It's like having two football teams take the field and there's no referee. The two teams just sort of decide how they're going to play the game. Oftentimes you'll have situations where the penalties are quite low because nobody really wants to put themselves into a situation that could be precarious,” Leventhal said.Dave Levinthal on Twitter: @DaveLevinthal
On today's ID the Future, physicist Brian Miller continues his review of James Tour's origin-of-life YouTube series. As Miller explains, Tour, a world-renowned synthetic organic chemist and professor at Rice University, was inspired to create the series when YouTuber and evolutionist Dave Farina critiqued Tour's critique of contemporary origin-of-life claims. In reviewing Tour's video series, Miller and host Eric Anderson praise the Tour series and discuss the Levinthal paradox of the interactome, the ridiculously long odds of blind processes assembling the first living cell, and the challenge of cell death (think Humpty Dumpty and what all the king's men couldn't do). Also discussed: entropy, molecular machines, the challenges that Brownian motion and homochirality pose, the presence of intelligent design in Read More › Source
As part of the rich buffet of joy that MS lays out for us, problems with your gut and pooping have to be right at the top of the charts - or the shit-list, if you will.Just to state it for the record, not everyone with MS will have these issues - as we know, MS isn’t a one-size-fits-all deal.

What is the protein folding problem that has left researchers stuck for nearly 50 years? Knowing the 3D shape of proteins is so important for our understanding of various diseases and vaccine development. However, these shapes are fantastically complex and difficult to predict. Researchers have spent years trying to determine the 3D structure of proteins. Thanks to AI systems like AlphaFold, it's now much easier and faster to predict protein shapes. AlphaFold is currently leading the way in protein folding research and has been described as a “revolution in biology.” In this episode of Short and Sweet AI, I explore the protein folding problem in more detail and how AlphaFold is accelerating our understanding of protein structures. In this episode, find out: Why protein folding is so important Why it's so difficult to predict protein structures How Google's DeepMind created AlphaFold How successful AlphaFold has been in predicting protein structures Important Links and Mentions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg7WjuFs8F4 (AlphaFold: The making of a scientific breakthrough) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpedmJdrTpY (Protein folding explained) https://drpepermd.com/episode/walloped-by-alphago/ (Walloped by AlphaGo) https://drpepermd.com/episode/what-is-alphazero/ (What is AlphaZero?) https://deepmind.com/blog/article/AlphaFold-Using-AI-for-scientific-discovery (AlphaFold: Using AI for scientific discovery) Resources: Nature.com - https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03348-4 (‘It will change everything': DeepMind's AI makes gigantic leap in solving protein structures) SciTech Daily - https://scitechdaily.com/major-scientific-advance-deepmind-ai-alphafold-solves-50-year-old-grand-challenge-of-protein-structure-prediction/ (Major Scientific Advance: DeepMind AI AlphaFold Solves 50-Year-Old Grand Challenge of Protein Structure Prediction) Episode Transcript: Hello to you who are curious about AI. I'm Dr. Peper and today I'm talking about AlphaFold. One of Biology's most difficult challenges, one that researchers have been stuck on for nearly 50 years is how to determine a protein's 3D shape from its amino-acid sequence. It's known as “the protein folding problem”. When I first came across the subject, I thought, ok, that's a biology problem and maybe AI will solve it but there's no big story here. I was wrong. Some biologists spend months, years, or even decades performing experiments to determine the precise shape of a protein. Sometimes they never succeed. But they persist because having the ability to know how a protein folds up can accelerate our ability to understand diseases, develop new medicines and vaccines, and crack one of the greatest challenges in biology. Why is protein folding so important? Proteins structures contain as much, if not more information, than stored in DNA. Their 3D shapes are fantastically complex. Proteins are made up of strings of amino acids, called the building blocks of life. In order to function, the strings twist and fold into a precise, delicate shapes that turn or wrap around each other. These strings can even merge into bigger, megaplex structures. Only then can these proteins function in the way necessary to build and sustain life. A protein's shape defines what the protein can do and what it cannot do. But there's an astronomical number of ways a protein can fold into its final 3D structure. It's called Levinthal's paradox. Cyrus Levinthal, a molecular biologist, published a paper in 1969 called “How to Fold Graciously.” He found there are so many degrees of freedom in an unfolded chain of amino acids, the molecule has an astronomical number of possible configurations. There're an estimated 200 million known proteins with 30 million new ones discovered every year. Each one has a unique 3D shape which determines how it works and what it does. For the last 50 years, biologists discovered the...

David Levinthal, M.D. Study Could Explain How Stress Encourages Stomach Ulcers Neuroscientists at the University of Pittsburgh Brain Institute have traced neural pathways that connect the brain to the stomach, providing a biological mechanism to explain how stress can foster ulcer development.The findings, published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, build a scientific basis for the brain’s influence over organ function and emphasize the importance of the brain-body connection. Until now, research exploring the gut-brain interaction has largely focused on the influence of the gut and its microbiome on the brain. But it’s not a one-way street — the brain also influences stomach function. Article: Multiple areas of the cerebral cortex influence the stomach The connection between our thoughts and feelings and our gut Dr. Levinthal details his testing process The 2 branches of our nervous system that control the organs The body reacts to re-living a stressor as a memory the same way it reacts to the original stressor

As an artist, you’ve likely struggled with honing your craft and finding ways to replenish your creativity over the years, I know I have! That’s why I loved my conversation with Aubrey Levinthal and I know you will too! In our conversation, Aubrey opens up about how she got started as an artist, her experience in art school, how she’s honed her craft, what she does to replenish her creativity, and so much more! I know many of you will also enjoy images of Aubrey’s artwork, located at the end of this post, don’t miss it! Honing your craft. What have been some of the unique challenges you’ve faced on your journey to hone and refine your artistic craft? Have you been plagued with self-doubt? Do you struggle with a block in creativity? You are not alone! There are so many of us who have been there and struggled in silence. Artist Aubrey Levinthal has had her fair share of milestones and struggled along the way. The constant in Aubrey’s story is an inner drive she’s cultivated and nurtured over the years. Aubrey holds herself to a very high standard and wants to bring her work to a level of creativity and quality that goes beyond her wildest dreams. Can you relate? What can you learn from Aubrey’s story? Lessons learned from what doesn’t work on the canvas. Too often we can get so focused on what we can learn from the good that we forget the lessons we can learn from the negative or challenging aspects of the creative process. Have you learned some valuable lessons recently? Aubrey Levinthal has a refreshing perspective on what doesn’t work when she approaches her canvas, she sees an opportunity to learn. I love that! You and I need more positive perspectives like Aubrey’s! Let’s leave the negative terminologies and negative mindsets behind and see setbacks as opportunities to learn. Imagine the impact that simple shift could have on your creative process and your career as an artist. Replenishing your creativity. Do you have any tips on replenishing your creativity as an artist? What have you tried? Are you looking for a way to reset and refresh right now? In my conversation with Aubrey Levinthal, we touched on this important topic. Aubrey says that one of the best ways to replenish her creativity to step away and visit a museum or an art gallery to tap into the reason why she loves creating art. Everyone needs to find what works for them, don’t let yourself burn out! The world needs your unique artistic voice, take care of yourself! The answer is in the paint. When you are young and inexperienced, you tend to make mountains out of molehills. At least that was the case for me! Too often I would get sidetracked or let myself get distracted by some seemingly larger than life challenge, I wish someone would have shared with me Aubrey’s wonderful advice! Looking back at herself ten years ago, Aubrey would tell herself, “The answer is in the paint.” Instead of allowing herself to get overwhelmed at all the options or all the possibilities, Aubrey wishes that she would have given herself the permission to try and fail. At the end of the day, as an artist, your job is to create. Whatever you need to do to cut through the noise and put your paintbrush to canvas, do it! Outline of This Episode [1:00] I introduce my guest, Aubrey Levinthal. [2:45] How did Aubrey sense the call to become an artist?
