Porquê não vemos os macacos evoluindo? Será que eles pararam de evoluir? Os cães vieram para o mundo amigos do homem ou se tornaram amigos por seleção de características? Neste episódio conto sobre um estudo de comportamentos de Cães Vs Lobos. Quando comparamos o contato de seres humanos com lobos domesticados será que ambos cooperam igualmente? Ambos tem o mesmo contato com o ser humano? A idéia deste artigo era entender se realmente conseguimos mudar uma espécie em algumas gerações. Isso nos leva a ver a evolução das espécies a olhos nus. Sendo assim a evolução acontece a todo vapor, mas não estaremos aqui para ver os macacos se transformarem em um humano pois isso levou alguns milhões de anos. No final deste audio uma reflexão de Charles Darwin.

Anyone who travels knows you often don't sleep well on the first night at your new destination - especially if you have travelled across time zones. This experience is so common it has a name – it is called the “First Night Effect.” This episode begins with an explanation for why it happens and some advice to counter the effects. http://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822%2816%2930174-9 You know you have a mind but what exactly is it? I know that's a weird question but think about it – you have a mind that determines who you are. So is your mind the same thing as your brain? If you took your brain and put it into someone else's body would it still be the same mind? Would you still be you? To discuss that, I have invited Alan Jasonoff, a Professor at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT and author of the book The Biological Mind: How Brain Body and Environment Collaborate to Make Us Who We Are (https://amzn.to/2VDYqbR). Is beer better in a bottle or a can? What's the fastest way to chill champagne? These are just a few of the questions I tackle with expert advice on the proper ways to serve and drink wine, beer and spirits. https://www.womansday.com/food-recipes/food-drinks/a54470/ways-youre-drinking-wrong/ A lot of people are insecure and most of them would likely tell you that feeling insecure isn't easy and comes with its own set of problems. It's just plain hard to frequently doubt yourself and be overly sensitive to criticism - which are two elements of being insecure. And that is just the tip of the iceberg. Is being insecure just part of your personality or something you can change? Where does that insecurity come from? Joining me to discuss this is Joseph Nowinski, he is a clinical psychologist and author of the book, The Tender Heart Conquering Your Insecurity (https://amzn.to/2VDTfca).

Synapsen. Ein Wissenschaftspodcast von NDR Info

Jede Nacht kommen die Träume - und davon sogar einige. An manche erinnern wir uns, an andere nicht. Bedeuten sie etwas oder sind sie ein reines nächtliches Neuronengewitter im Gehirn?

Sowohl im Schlaflabor als auch in therapeutischen Behandlungen befassen sich Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler mit Träumen und deren möglichen Bedeutungen.

In this 72nd in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens. It’s the Spring equinox, and there are frogs—frogs who are anatomically able to tune out some of the voices of other frogs whom they have no interest in. Then: Bret’s challenge to Ibram Kendi, which includes a simple proof involving dogs and anti-racism. And: the left are increasingly gullible; we provide an example from a class action lawsuit in California against the use of CRT in state agencies. Finally: Is widespread vaccination during a pandemic safe? We discuss the views of a scientist, Geert Vanden Bossche, who argues “no.”  Our book, A Hunter-Gatherer’s Guide to the 21st Century, is now available for pre-sale at amazon.

This episode introduces neuroplasticity- which is how our brain and nervous system learns and acquires new capabilities. I describe the differences between childhood and adult neuroplasticity, the chemicals involved and how anyone can increase their rate and depth of learning by leveraging the science of focus. I describe specific tools for increasing focus and learning. The next two episodes will cover the ideal protocols for specific types of learning and how to make learning new information more reflexive.

I den fasen som kalles REM-søvn (Rapid Eye Movement) er vi i en slags halv-våken tilstand, mens kroppen fortsatt er delvis paralysert. I deler av REM-søvnen drømmer vi, en aktivitet som er en slags ryddeprosess i hjernen, og helt nødvendig for at vi skal fungere godt mentalt. Denne drømmefasen er forbundet med raske øyebevegelser. Selv under søvn tar vi inn inntrykk fra utsiden, slik som tale, og som i våken tilstand filtrerer vi ut informasjon som ikke er relevant. En ny studie fra Australia viser imidlertid at under den delen av søvnen der vi drømmer stenger vi ute all informasjon, noe forskerne mener er hjernens beskyttelse mot forstyrrelser i en søvnfase som er så viktig for vår våken-fungering. Studien er publisert i Current Biology 14 mai i år. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/viten-paa-kort-tid/message

Cambia tu Entrenamiento para Romper Estancamientos en la Pérdida de Grasa

"El progreso es imposible sin el cambio" - George Bernard Shaw A la hora de perder grasa, la teoría es sencilla: come menos de lo que gastas. Y sin embargo, la mayoría de dietas fracasan. Para empezar, debemos entender que las calorías que gastas (también llamadas calorías de mantenimiento) no son un número fijo, sino un rango variable. Tu cuerpo se adapta rápidamente a pequeñas variaciones energéticas, intentando defender su peso actual (más detalle). Por este motivo puedes comer menos (o moverte más) sin que esto se refleje finalmente en tu peso. Para perder peso debes recortar calorías o aumentar la actividad física lo suficiente para cruzar el umbral inferior del rango de mantenimiento actual. Las calorías de mantenimiento no son un número fijo, sino un rango controlado por las adaptaciones metabólicas. Por eso el peso no se moverá si la ingesta se mantiene dentro de sus límites Para la mayoría es más fácil recortar calorías, pero a partir de cierto punto el hambre se hará intolerable. Las recargas y los descansos son estrategias nutricionales que mitigan las adaptaciones metabólicas producidas al perder grasa, y las detallamos en artículos pasados. Sin embargo, nunca hemos profundizado en el efecto de las adaptaciones metabólicas en el entrenamiento ni en las estrategias que podemos utilizar para optimizar la quema de grasa y romper estancamientos. Hoy es el momento. Tu cerebro lucha contra la pérdida de peso Tu cerebro sigue creyendo que vives en la era de las cavernas y que las calorías escasean. Intenta por tanto ajustar las calorías que gastas a las que recibes, a través de multitud de mecanismos distintos (detalle): Se hace por ejemplo más eficiente en los movimientos familiares. Resta energía de otros sistemas. 1. Mayor eficiencia A medida que repites una actividad física, tu cerebro es capaz de completarla con menos energía. Esto suponía una gran ventaja en la sabana africana, pero es una traba cuando intentamos hoy quemar grasa. Si requerías 300 calorías en tus primeras sesiones de cardio, quizá solo quemas ahora 250. Es un ejemplo del efecto Reina Roja, en cuyo país debían estar constantemente corriendo para mantenerse en el mismo sitio. ¿Y si querían desplazarse a alguna parte? Debían correr el doble de rápido. De la misma manera, para seguir gastando las mismas calorías deberías correr cada vez más lejos o cada vez más rápido. «Para quedarte donde estás tienes que correr lo más rápido que puedas. Si quieres ir a otro sitio deberás correr el doble de rápido».La Reina Roja en Alicia a través del espejo (Lewis Carroll, 1871). Parte de este menor coste viene obviamente de la pérdida peso. Necesitas menos energía para mover un cuerpo pequeño que uno grande. Pero incluso igualando peso, se observan mejoras en eficiencia neuromuscular e incluso mitocondrial (estudio, estudio, estudio), que reducen el gasto total. 2. Ahorro metabólico en otros ámbitos Para combatir esta eficiencia metabólica, podrías estar tentado de añadir más ejercicio: más pesas, más cardio, más HIIT... Hasta cierto punto es una estrategia válida, pero debemos entender que el gasto energético total no aumenta de manera lineal. A partir de cierto umbral, las calorías adicionales que obligas al cuerpo a dedicar al ejercicio, las resta en realidad de otros ámbitos, intentando así no excederse respecto a la energía que recibe (más detalle). El modelo de gasto energético tradicional (Aditivo) de la izquierda no es válido, y se entiende mejor el gasto del cuerpo según el modelo Restringido (derecha). Fuente: http://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(15)01577-8 ¿Y de dónde resta energía nuestro cuerpo? De sistemas que no considera vitales para la supervivencia inmediata, como el sistema inmune o el reproductivo. Esto explicaría el aumento de infecciones (estudio) o la amenorrea en mujeres (detalle) al elevar el ejercicio en un contexto de restricción calórica. ¿Cuál es el resultado?

Author: Dave Saintsing Educational Pearls: Poor sleep is an independent risk factor for development of health problems such as type 2 diabetes.  A 2019 study, randomized participants to 3 groups: 9 hours of sleep, 5 hours of sleep with weekend catch-up sleep, and 5 hours of sleep without catch-up sleep.  In the sleep deprived (5 hour) groups, there was significantly more insulin resistance, calorie intake, and weight gain regardless of catch-up sleep.  Tramadol is prescribed 25 million times a year in the USA, usually to avoid prescribing traditional opiates such as Percocet or Oxycodone. Tramadol has complex pharmacology in that is is both an SNRI and mu-opiate agonist after metabolism in the liver. The pharmacogenetics of this vary greatly between people. Many people have rapid metabolism that will lead to increased opiate effects. Other medications interfere with metabolism (such as SSRI’s). A recent study demonstrated increased risk of hypoglycemia in diabetics taking Tramadol. Use caution when prescribing this drug.  Sepsis resuscitation has traditionally been gauged by following lactate levels on the  presumption that lactate is an adequate marker of organ perfusion. Unfortunately, lactate levels are often elevated by medications and other health conditions such as kidney or liver disease, making lactate an often ineffective biomarker for perfusion. The Andromeda-Shock trial compared using capillary refill to lactate as guides for resuscitation with the primary endpoint of reducing 28-day mortality.  The capillary refill group had a 9% absolute risk reduction in mortality, but this did not reach statistical significance. However, capillary refill can be used as another data point while resuscitating your septic patients.  When should you start pressors for patients in septic shock? A 2019 study compared routine resuscitation (30cc/kg fluid bolus) to initiation of norepinephrine with the first 30cc/kg crystalloid. They found that the early pressor group had significantly more “shock control” (MAP>65) at 6 hours, compared to the control group. While there was a trend towards less mortality in the early pressor group, it was not statistically significant. Keep an eye out for more studies in this area!  A recent study in JAMA found that 88% of deaths from sepsis were unavoidable, due to severe chronic comorbidities. Remember that patients will still die from septic shock despite your best efforts and knowledge of the newest literature.    References Depner CM, Melanson EL, Eckel RH, Snell-Bergeon JK, Perreault L, Bergman BC, Higgins JA, Guerin MK, Stothard ER, Morton SJ, Wright KP Jr. Curr Biol. 2019 Feb 11. pii: S0960-9822(19)30098-3. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2019.01.069.

Life on earth began in the oceans.  And it used to be simpler. For the first few billion years, life consisted of microbes that didn’t really swim or hunt; they mostly floated and, if they were lucky, bumped into something they could engulf and digest. But that changed during the Cambrian period. Over a relatively short period of time known as the Cambrian Explosion, organisms started becoming larger and more complex. For the first time they grew limbs and exoskeletons; intestines and eyes. Animals from this period developed strange body plans that look almost alien to the modern eye. It was an unprecedented surge of biodiversity.  But many of the animal groups that emerged during the Cambrian Period died soon after during an extinction event, their bizarre body plans perishing along with them. To paraphrase the evolutionary biologist and paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould, these were “early experiments in life’s history.” Among the survivors of the Cambrian extinction event was metaspriggina, a tiny fish the size of a human thumb. This tiny fish is one of the oldest ancestors of all vertebrate life on earth - including us.Over millions of years and tectonic shifts, Cambrian-era seabeds became modern-day mountains. Today, one of the best places in the world to study fossils from the Cambrian period is at the Burgess Shale fossil deposit, high in the Canadian Rockies. The animals fossilized in the rock were buried quickly in mud that had the right conditions to preserve the soft tissues like brains, organs, and muscles, giving paleontologists a detailed glimpse at some of the first complex life on earth. Scientists have been mulling over the Burgess Shale fossils since they were first excavated in 1909. Stephen Jay Gould was one of those scientists fascinated by the Burgess fossils. He paid attention to the research coming out about them and started wondering what life would look like if a different set of animals had survived and our ancestors had died out. Would humans - or something like us - have ever evolved?  Gould thought not. In his 1989 book Wonderful Life, he came up with the ‘tape of life’ thought experiment. Gould wrote, “Wind back the tape of life to the early days of the Burgess Shale; let it play again from an identical starting point, and the chance becomes vanishingly small that anything like human intelligence would grace the replay.” This idea is called Evolutionary Contingency.Not everyone agreed with Gould. Most notably his contemporary Simon Conway Morris, another evolutionary biologist and paleontologist. Simon Conway Morris spent years studying the Burgess Shale, and it was his work that Gould had cited for his book about Evolutionary Contingency. Conway Morris disagreed with Gould’s interpretation that human intelligence was a fluke. He wrote his own book in 1998 called The Crucible of Creation and posited that, while life may have looked very different after a replay of the ‘tape of life’, consciousness may still have emerged in other forms. He wrote, “There are not an unlimited number of ways of doing something. For all its exuberance, the forms of life are restricted and channeled.” (p. 13) This idea is called Evolutionary Convergence. In August 2018, producer Molly Segal joined a group of paleontologists, including Jean-Bernard Caron of the Royal Ontario Museum for their biennial dig at the Burgess Shale.  Caron believes that Contingency and Convergence both play a role in evolution, their debate has informed discussions about evolution ever since. This episode was produced by Molly and edited by Bethany Denton and Jeff EmtmanMusic: The Black Spot

Dr. Yoselin Benitez-Alfonso is originally from Cuba, and completed her graduate studies at the Universidad de Córdoba in Spain. After graduating with her Ph.D., she did two postdocs, one at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories and another at the John Innes Center.

This episode ends with a discussion of race, how it developed as a concept, and what it means to anthropologists today.Transcript: https://riverofhistory.tumblr.com/post/183673468776/episode-9-homo-sapiensLinks and Referenced Mentioned:Inspiration for the dissection of‘population’ and ‘migration’: https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/plug-and-play-genetics-racial-migrations-and-human-history/Steve Olson quote: Mapping Human History, Mariner Books(2002)African Multiregionalism: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959437X1730182X?dgcid=authorBorrowing of the term “Ancestor”: The Humans Who Went Extinct, CliveFinlayson, Oxford University Press (2009)Generalist Specialists:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326689995_Defining_the_'generalist_specialist'_niche_for_Pleistocene_Homo_sapiens_Nature_Human_BehaviourDeep Ancestral Ties to LivingAfricans: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-07164-9& https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959437X18300601?via%3DihubOldest Bow-and-Arrow: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/324721964_The_antiquity_of_bow-and-arrow_technology_Evidence_from_Middle_Stone_Age_layers_at_Sibudu_CaveAccess of Southwest Asia fromAfrica via warm and wet corridors:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/303763801_Palaeohydrological_corridors_for_hominin_dispersals_in_the_Middle_East_250-70000_years_agoReturn movements into Africa:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/325856764_Carriers_of_mitochondrial_DNA_macrohaplogroup_L3_basal_lineages_migrated_back_to_Africa_from_Asia_around_70000_years_ago1.5-2.1% of non-African genomes areNeanderthal: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4031459/Neanderthal Traits in Homo sapiens: https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/primer/dtcgenetictesting/neanderthaldna &https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28985494Early Homo sapiens movements into Eurasia:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5164938/& https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4933530/& https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-017-0436-8 & https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-38818-xToba Eruption Discussion: When Humans Nearly Vanished, DonaldProthero, Smithsonian Books (2018) & TheGreat Divide, Peter Watson, HarperCollins Publishers (2013)Possible climate-driver for Humansleaving Africa: https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsa/geology/article/45/11/1023/516677/a-climatic-context-for-the-out-of-africa-migrationLice study and the Origin ofClothing: https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(03)00507-4?Bone needles: https://www.sapiens.org/archaeology/fashion-history-sewing-needles/Alexander Harcourt coastalmigration reference: Humankind,Pegasus Books (2015)Genetic evidence for peopling ofSoutheast Asia: http://science.sciencemag.org/content/361/6397/88.longPeopling of Sahul: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0047248418302136 &https://www.nature.com/articles/nature18299& https://www.nature.com/articles/nature21416Peopling of Eastern & Northern Asia:https://investigativegenetics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/2041-2223-4-11 &http://www.genetics.org/content/202/1/261 & http://advances.sciencemag.org/content/3/2/e1601877.fullMating between Denisovans andAncestors: https://peerj.com/preprints/27526.pdfPeopling of Europe: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2752585/ &https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3427117/& https://www.newscientist.com/article/2139694-we-may-have-mated-with-neanderthals-more-than-219000-years-ago/ &https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-41033-3Peopling of Siberia: https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10.1086/693388Peopling of the Americas: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27507099 &http://advances.sciencemag.org/content/4/8/eaat5473& https://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgen.0030185 &https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2018/11/ancient-dna-reveals-complex-migrations-first-americans/ &https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(18)31495-7?Discussion of Race: A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived,Adam Rutherford, The Experiment (2017); MappingHuman History, Steve Olson, Mariner Books (2002); https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4756148/

Show Notes Episode 189: “Now You're Messing With A Son of a Bitch” This week Host Dave Bledsoe exploits his grief to elicit compassion and understanding, also to cadge as many free drinks as a possible. On the show this week we find a way to make George HW Bush's death even MORE polarizing and controversial. (It's a gift we possess.) Along the way we learn about Dave's childhood pets, some of whom were actually real and NOT imaginary Klingon Targs. Then we jump to the Twitter outrage over the Slatest Slate Article Slated in the history of Slate. From there we proceed to insult almost everyone we can imagine by disassembling the entire Cult of Dog in contemporary society. (Step 1: Your dog does not NEED an Instagram, assholes!) We look at Comparative Thanatology (Yes, this is a REAL thing!) and how death impacts everything from humans to Whelks. (Invertebrates, not 60's Polka King) Finally, we just flat out attack people for loving their animals, because we are terrible human beings. Our Sponsor this week is Dog, who want to know: “Are you going to eat that?” We open the show with Carlin's secret of life and close with 16 Tonn explaining why we don't care if you ratio our asses.

#69: Planes, Bee Brains, and Taxes Greetings people of the future, we recorded this week’s show on Monday because of the Second Law of Thermodynamics otherwise known as Murphy’s Law.
