this conversation on American corporate platform, but I don't hold my tongue. I say what I think to be the truth on DSO There is there is the wider dialogue when we're biologist , sir. Okay. You 11. Your 11 year old boy from Trench Town Marine biologist . The next year lawyer, the
Jersey right here in New Brunswick um I studied organic chemistry which is the first step to becoming a marine biologist and I studied harder than I had ever studied in my life and my score at the end of that hard hard semesterwas a 71 which is barely passing and I thought to myself this is not maybe not my cup of tea maybe I don't have this
The word brilliant is frequently used to describe Alan Turing, who was not only one of the earliest computer scientists, but also a mathematician, logician, biologist , and encrypt analyst famous for breaking the German Enigma encryption during World War II and saving millions of lives.His story has inspired films, literature, and even music, and I'm honored today to introduce his nephew and biographer.
machine and I'd be working on a project and I'd these critters. I'd get slides back and send those off to the biologist . Today, it's a lot easier. The Epson 4900 is kicking out prints and I'm sending those to the plane people. And that's it. That sharing of that world thatwe can do as photographers opens all the doors. It opens all the doors to people you want to work with, the
really like their own version of NASA they were putting together every aspect of a human expedition to Mars I mean biologist who had helped get the search for Life on Mars going in the early 60s
He took part in the Biosphere 2 project in the Arizona desert, I think in the 80s. And he came up with the notion -- he was a biologist -- he came up with the notion of calorific restriction.And he said that he put a load of rats on a very restricted calorie diet, down to about a third of their normal intake, but maintaining the
- The following is a conversation with Michael Levin, his second time on the podcast. He is one of the most fascinating and brilliant biologists and scientists I've ever had the pleasure of speaking with. He and his labs at Tufts University study and build biological systems that help us understand the nature of intelligence,agency, memory, consciousness, and life in all of its forms here on Earth, and beyond. This is the Lex Fridman Podcast. To support it,
There's a couple of ways of looking at this. Biologists talk about proximate causes and ultimate causes.Proximate causes would be the mechanism that generates certain features including mental dispositions.
So the notions here are the rise of moralizing deities. Biologists describe phenotypes as gene by environment interactions.
Thank you all very much for coming and having lunch over a topic that's a little bit uncomfortable, maybe, for some people, but maybe not people in this crowd. Biologists are not always happy to hear this news, although I think a lot of them acknowledge that this is a significant problem that they're worrying about.So let me spend a few minutes sort of just giving you a sense of how the book came about and some of the highlights of the book.
It's true for animals in the wild. Biologists reserve the term song for any animal that repeats a certain trill or sound over a common interval.Repetition is the god particle of music.
Previously the main dividing lines between people and their beliefs concerned questions like, biologists will tell you, go with your feelings.
What is nepotism? Nepotism is widespread in nature. Biologists are very familiar with it.And to a biologist , nepotism simply means to favor your relative members at the expense of non-relatives.
of their environment and also on their life-ability." And in doing so, you think actually the way biologists think about survival.Because biologists , if they want to know whether a species survives, they say, "Well there must be a suitable biotope, but the animal should also fit." And they use the term "fitness"
The idea that microbes float in the air just sounded really bizarre. One biologist at the time, Félix Pouchet, reasoned that if that were true, “the air in which we live would almost have the density of iron.” And besides, the skeptics said, the experiment hadn’t totally ruled out spontaneous generation.
Tigers have declined dramatically across their range. The biologist that I showed the picture of, Dr. John Seidensticker, early on in 1972, he was sitting in my office about-- oh, about eight years ago.
The biologist in this picture is this machine here.
A biologist , a cynic, might say, yes.
behavioral biologist imperil ecologist and socio biologists they look for
and biologists like to really look at primates in comparison to people.
Most biologists , these days, prefer to use the phrase natural selection.
No biologists , for example, would suggest that 50% of all forms of life are moribund.
So biologists will describe life in terms of coded information, instructions, editing, transcription, translation,
And biologists try to explain how that could happen.
and biologists , biologically-grounded theories, and they're able to formalize those theories and test them computationally.
And biologists fought really, really hard to make sure that their science is now known as new ways of curing people,
marine biologists what what made you have to tell this story I mean you went to some really incredible lengths to
So biologists have a name for something that carries out such an important role.
Most biologists today take it for granted that plants are in fact alive.
Previously the main dividing lines between people and their beliefs concerned questions like, And biologists could come and say, this is actually a very keen insight.
Many biologists believe that even consciousness will eventually be understood in terms of the actions of individual neurons.
So biologists are predisposed to be hostile to any attempt to smuggle in an intelligence by magic
want to behave and make these conscious decisions. Whereas biologists don't assume that all behavior is the product of conscious choice. The idea is natural selection essentially takes care of the rationality aspect of our behavior.
and that is to photograph the biology of a critter. That's my specialty. Asking questions in my mind and trying to find it in the view finder to bring back answers to biologists is what I've done for 30 years.
and that is to photograph the biology of a critter. That's my specialty. Asking questions in my mind and trying to find it in the view finder to bring back answers Because biologists don't have the luxury of time to just sit and stare at something. It's long gone from our biology and our system. It's just time and money. It's that
biologists think about survival.Because biologists , if they want to know whether a species survives, they say, "Well there must be a suitable biotope, but the animal should also fit." And they use the term "fitness" rather than "life-ability." And in using the term "fitness" they say, "Well you can be very able, but it should
Kyle Artell is a biologist working with Robin Wall Kimmerer and some really groundbreaking Two-eyed seeing work in the indigenous community.
I had a few biologist friends who were obsessed with the protein folding problem, and actually they ended up becoming structural biologists , of course, in their career.
Almost every biologist , medical researcher in the world.
I'm a biologist . You're a biologist .

If you're a biologist and you identify an area of high species endemism, you can seek to create a protected area.
How does a biologist go from research and fieldwork to television?
Being a conservation biologist is one thing.
From Edgar-- as a biologist , do you think it will ever be feasible to terraform planets and moons in the solar system and beyond
Chinese biophysicist-- not a biologist , not a physician, a biophysicist.
If you ask a biologist , you get a very different narrative.

Before I was a biologist , I used to work in artificial intelligence research.
And he is a biologist , first and foremost.
