  On this episode of Unsupervised Learning Razib talks to Nathan Lents about his new book, The Sexual Evolution: A Provocative Look at Sexual Behavior Through the Lens of Evolution. A professor at John Jay College in New York City, Lents earned a Ph.D. in Pharmacological and Physiological Sciences in 2004 at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, and did his postdoctoral fellowship in cancer genomics at NYU Medical Center. Lents' research ranges from the evolution of molecular mechanisms to behavioral ecology. He is also the author of Not So Different: Finding Human Nature in Animals and Human Errors: A Panorama of Our Glitches, from Pointless Bones to Broken Genes.   Lents reached out to Razib after hearing his podcast with Conn Carroll, about his book Sex and the Citizen: How the Assault on Marriage Is Destroying Democracy. Lents felt that Carroll overemphasized the role of monogamy during humanity's long forager phase, and more precisely, failed to distinguish social monogamy and genetic monogamy. As noted in The Sexual Evolution, many socially monogamous species, like most birds, engage in enough extra-pair copulation so that genetic fidelity is considerably lower than 100%. Razib and Lents then go back to first principles, talking about the origins of sex, and its persistence in the face of the two-fold cost of reproduction in dimorphous organisms. They discuss why specialized males and females exist in complex organisms as distinct as flowering plants and humans. Lents also discusses the reviews empirical literature on homosexual behavior, variation in sex differences across many classes of organisms and the application of evolutionary thinking to our understanding of the human past. Then they discuss the relevance of evolutionary biology for understanding the human present, and our current debates about marriage, sex and gender. Finally, they consider the differences between sex and gender, and the idea that both can be conceptualized in a nonbinary fashion.

Why do patients with long COVID have such a wide array of symptoms affecting so many bodily systems? That bedeviling question is the focus of this episode of Raise the Line featuring Dr. Resia Pretorius, head of the Department of Physiological Sciences at Stellenbosch University in South Africa and a renowned researcher in coagulation. “The underlying concept of what is happening, in our minds, is that long COVID is a widespread vascular endotheliitis, which is driven by the presence of all sorts of inflammatory molecules in circulation,” she tells host Dr. Raven Baxter of the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illnesses (CoRE). Because endothelial cells line blood vessels that travel to every part of the body, their impairment produces a range of symptoms. Dr. Pretorius and her research colleagues have discovered that “microclots” – abnormal proteins that prevent clots from breaking down – are another ingredient in the long COVID recipe due to their possible role in reducing oxygen flow to the brain and other organs. Because of their unusual structure, microclots are not detected by customary blood tests, leading Dr. Pretorius to add her voice to the chorus of stakeholders calling for the development of new diagnostic tests and additional treatments. “We need a concerted effort for trials. We need FDA approval for the laboratory test that we developed. I'm confident we will get it done, but it will take time, which is sad.” Tune in to learn about the possible causes of microclots, promising research on anticoagulation therapy and why long COVID is not a “checklist” disease, as our special series on post-acute infection syndromes continues. Mentioned in this episode:Mount Sinai Health SystemSteven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation

Kanazawa University NanoLSI Podcast: Experiments provide insights into the molecular mechanism for memory and learning Transcript of this podcastHello and welcome to the NanoLSI podcast. Thank you for joining us today. In this episode we feature the latest research by Mikihiro Shibata at the Kanazawa University NanoLSI alongside Hideji Murakoshi at The Graduate University for Advanced Studies and the National Institute for Physiological Sciences, and their colleagues.The research described in this podcast was published in Science Advances in June 2023Kanazawa University NanoLSI websitehttps://nanolsi.kanazawa-u.ac.jp/en/Experiments provide insights into the molecular mechanism for memory and learning Researchers at Kanazawa University report in Science Advances  high-speed atomic force microscopy experiments that show the structural and chemical changes in an enzyme thought to play a vital role in modulating the strength of neural connections.Synapses connect neurons allowing the transmission of signals around the neural network. The strength of these connections varies – for instance strengthening or weakening depending on the signals received and how. This synaptic “plasticity” underlies learning and memory and the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is known to play a key role. Previous studies have provided some clues to the mechanisms of CaMKII protein activity in these functions but no-one had seen these proteins in action. Now Hideji Murakoshi at the Graduate University of Advanced Studies and the National Institute for Physiological Sciences and Mikihiro Shibata at Kanazawa University and their colleagues have used high speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) to observe the structural dynamics of these proteins for the first time, not only in various states but in three different species.CaMKII is common to a vast range of species from mammals like rats to older, non-mammalian species like the roundworms (C. elegans) and hydra. In particular, certain structural features of the protein are particularly well preserved, including the kinase domain, the regulatory segment that inhibits the activity of the kinase domain and the hub domain. In addition, the protein has binding sites, phosphorylation sites and linker regions – however, the linker region shows a little more variability across species suggesting that its function and activation mechanisms are more bespoke for the different species.So what did we know about how this protein works? (3min)Previous studies had suggested that the regulatory segment's inhibition of the kinase domain is released when Ca2+/calmodulin binds to the regulatory segment. The activated kinase domains then phosphorylate each other, activity that persists even after the Ca2+/calmodulin becomes dissociated, which has been “hypothesized to be a form of molecular memory”, as the researchers describe in their report.Murakoshi, Shibata and their colleagues studied the protein using atomic force microscopy, which feels topologies using a nanoscale tip like a needle reading a vinyl record, raster scanning the image plane to build up a picture of the sample structure. With HS-AFM, these images are collected quickly enough to record movies of how these structures change. The researchers noted various measures of the proteins size and motion – the gyrus of rotation – as well as reactions such as kinase domain oligomerization (that is, where there is a limited level of polymerization to join molecules into chains) and phosphorylation – the addition of a phosphoryl group (PO3), which can activate enzymes like kinase.They found that the kinase domain was quite mobile, although this decreased with Ca2+/calmodulin binding.

Q&A on Nordic Skiing, Recovery, and Mixing Training Modalities, with Adam St. Pierre Adam St. Pierre, the head coach of the Nordic ski team at Montana St. University, and a former physiologist and jack-of-all-trades at the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine, joins Fast Talk to discuss nordic skiing and how it fits into endurance training, oxygen debt versus deficit, muscle recovery, and mixing running and cycling training modalities effectively. Nordic ski training This first question comes from Ashley Masen in California: “Since cross country skiing is full-body and pushes higher stroke volume than cycling can, could there be a really beneficial way to do VO2max training in the early season, then focus on extending threshold and adding specificity on the bike as you get closer to your race?” Oxygen debt versus deficit This question comes from Rodney Simpson in North Carolina. He writes: “What is your explanation of oxygen debt and oxygen deficit? Is the latency heart rate at the beginning of applying power for a zone 3 interval due to O2 debt or O2 deficit? Also, the duration to return to pre zone 3 interval heart rate due to fitness or fatigue?” Muscle recovery This question comes from Kjeld Bontenbal in the Netherlands. He writes: “Where resting HR and HRV seem to be proper guidelines for cardiovascular recovery, how about muscle recovery? As a speed skater I often find my rest HR and HRV ‘at rest', while my legs still feel sore. The soreness translates itself into lower power output in both the aerobic and anaerobic area. It makes me wonder: What is a good measure to determine the recovery state of the muscles? When the legs feel sore, should I give them more rest for optimal super-compensation?” References Chazaud, B. (2016).

Throughout recorded history there are references to light emissions observed to come from the human body. For years we have known that life is an electrical fact; that all vital systems operate electrically. Recently we have found that a cell is a bioelectric wonder - with polarities and energy field effects. Relatively inert substances, like membranes, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, and fascia also participate in chemical interaction. These tissue create and carry electrical impulses. Each living animal or plant cell is endowed with intracellular, cellular, and gross structural polarities that furnish living tissue with electromagnetism. Dr. Hunt was a pioneering scientist who measured the human bioenergy field in a laboratory. Her early research established the validity of bioenergy fields by measuring vibrations of the field with high frequency electronic instruments and capturing these on video and audio recordings. Dr. Valerie V.

April Abele Isaacson has 25 years of experience as a trial lawyer and a registered United States patent attorney. Before starting her legal career, April earned a MS in Pharmacological and Physiological Sciences and was an HIV/AIDS research scientist at Boston Children's Hospital. This technical background plays a significant role in her success as a patent litigator who focuses her practice on pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and chemical patent litigation, particularly on behalf of drug innovators. Her patent litigation experience includes trying cases in several federal district courts throughout the United States, as well as appeals before the Federal Circuit, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. April also counsels biopharma companies on patent and related regulatory issues, including patent portfolio strategy, litigation preparation and strategy, licensing, patent term extension strategy, and Orange Book patent listing and Use Code strategy. April's experience also includes a 5-year stint as in-house counsel at a public specialty pharmaceutical company, and serving as a U.S. Navy JAG Corps prosecutor where she won several high-profile jury cases and earned multiple achievement medals and letters of commendation for superior service and leadership. April's career is a truly her own creation, and her success is built on grit, tenacity, and love of learning. At every turn, she bet on herself and did the hard work that opened new doors. In this episode, April shares her journey and the forces that shaped her life and her career – from mental illness in her family to a changing political landscape in the country to the crucible of serving in the Navy. She also shares how determination and focusing on being her best self allowed her to build a bespoke career that fits her perfectly and that she loves – a career that didn't come with an instruction manual.

Hey there friends! This is Michael Le. Thanks for tuning into another episode of Pass the Mike where I have the pleasure of sharing the narratives of imminent or current medical professionals. In short, my job is to build you a community of mentors from the folks that have come before you. I couldn't be more happy to kick this podcast off with my dear friend, Sophia Nguyen. That's S-O-P-H-I-A N-G-U-Y-E-N. Sophia graduated in 2019 from UCLA with a degree in the Physiological Sciences. Next year, us Californians are going to mourn her transition to Midwestern University in Arizona. As an important aside, Sophia has long renounced her birth certificate name for So Phi Phi and will respond to nothing else. If you can't find her on stage performing for the annual Vietnamese Culture Night, you may find her in a dashing Yellow Polo supporting UCLA Health patients or you might find So Phi Phi serving as a bouncer—letting patients 150 - 175 only into the health fair venue. If you've tried both of those, you might find her screaming volunteers' names asking them to sign a waiver or with her Theta sisters doing some hooligan shtuff or with her brothers and Bok Bok back at home. If all else fails, she is guaranteed to be snacking on popcorn in the corner of the room, dancing to herself. I'll make sure we get these stories out of So Phi Phi because I think she personally is the epitome of work-life balance. I can't think of a person better to exemplify to any and all premeds that you CAN get into medical school AND have a whole lot of fun doing it. You can have your cake AND eat it too, both of which Sophia is guilty of. You can find Sophia if you want to say hello, ask a question or need an organic egg him on sophianguyen97@gmail.com, that's S-O-P-H-I-A-N-G-U-Y-E-N-9-7-AT-G-M-A-I-L-DOT-C-O-M.

Professor Nathan Lents studied biology at St. Louis University and then completed his PhD at St. Louis University’s school of medicine in Pharmacological and Physiological Sciences.  PhDs need residencies, too, so he did his postdoctoral training in cancer genomics at NYU and loved New York so much that he stayed and is now a Professor at John Jay College in Manhattan and director of the honors program.  He maintains the Human Evolution Blog and his podcast is called This World of Humans.   His book, Human Errors: A Panorama of Our Glitches, from Pointless Bones to Broken Genes, discusses the beauty of our flaws.  We are not the well-oiled machines that we think we are.  In today’s episode we start by discussing how this book caused an unexpected run-in with the intelligent design folks, and then get into the cognitive biases and heuristics that help shape our reality and how this, while designed as an advantage, can frequently be a disadvantage in our modern world.  We then get into the design flaws, like the vitamins that we should be able to make ourselves but can’t, vitamins and minerals we absorb poorly or in the wrong place, and finally end on the paleo diet and intermittent fasting.  You’ll have to listen to the end to find out which this evolutionary biologist advocates and why.

He also have a website where he reguarly posts articles about fat loss, muscle gain, nutrition, training and research reviews. http://www.bodyrecomposition.com In this podcast, Lyle and I discussed fat loss . Topics that are covered: 1. What genetic and environmental factors can contribute to making fat loss more difficult for some people? 2. What is the difference between fat set points and fat settling points? 3. When combining high activity and low calories without seeing progress. what might be causing the stall? 4. How does leptin, ghrelin and cortisol affect bodyweight regulation? 5. Metabolic adaptations seem to affect some people more than others. What are strategies that one can use during a fat loss period to reverse some of this adaptations to some extent?
