Evolution Unraveled - Ep. 5: The Humans Lost in Time - Part 1
play

01/18/23 • 18 min

Think of history, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Just take a moment to pause and think. Does your mind wander to the pyramids of Ancient Egypt, The Rise and Fall of the Aztec Civilization, The Discovery of the Americas, or maybe the Industrial Revolution.

Today's world owes an immense debt to the mighty empires and great cities of ancient history. Their inventions and ideas enabled the advancement of human society and laid the foundation for modern life. But is it possible to dig a little deeper for the full story? What happened before history? The grand story of humanity starts on Earth. The history of humans is not a clean, linear process with clear beginnings and conclusions.

It constantly adds new chapters and rewrites itself. Some of the greatest evidence showing how Homo sapiens developed is shown in this evolutionary timeline. All leading up to the world we live in today with other fascinating creatures, tigers, parrots, jellyfish etc. This amazing tale explores the most profound mysteries of humankind, which merges findings from the archeological record with the most recent genetic research to find out who we are, where we came from, and what the future may hold for our existence. It is the story of a family tree whose tangled and knotted branches span several epochs and continents. Let this story immerse us into the saga of human evolution, commencing with the earliest vestiges of our hominid ancestors in Africa and continuing through waves of human expansion across the continents to the emergence of agriculture and the explosive growth of the world's population. Many hominin specimens belong not in our solid line of ancestry but on side branches of humankind—evolutionary experiments that ended in extinction.

Evolution Unraveled - Ep. 8: Cancer and Aging - Interviewing Dr. Christin Burd
play

04/06/23 • 29 min

Today's guest is Dr. Christin Burd!
Dr. Christin Burd is an Associate Professor at Ohio State University, and a member of the Molecular Carcinogenesis and Chemoprevention Program at the OSUCCC – James, where her research focuses on improving our understanding of the connections between cancer and aging. We talk about her start in her chosen field, research, challenges and breakthroughs, and advice for people who want to get started in her field! Her areas of expertise include aging, genetically engineered mouse models, and melanoma.
Her lab is interested in the identification and dissection of genetic mechanisms involved in cancer and aging. Using molecular biology, biochemistry, cell culture, mouse models and human tissue samples they aim to promote healthy aging and aid in the prevention, detection and treatment of melanoma.
Her team’s goal is to bridge bench science and clinical trials. Recent work from her lab examines how aging of the immune system is impacted by different cancer therapies and may influence drug toxicity and patient outcomes.
She has developed several state-of-the-art genetically engineered models that allow scientists to track the formation and progression of spontaneous cancers and test melanoma prevention strategies. Additionally, she was the first in Ohio to receive a prestigious Damon Runyon-Rachleff Innovation Award. This award funds her ongoing research to develop new models and methods to combat tumors with a RAS gene mutation.
Her work is featured in numerous well-respected journals, including Cell, Nature Medicine, Cancer Discovery, Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research, and Molecular Cancer Research.

Evolution Unraveled - Ep. 10: Prehistoric Architecture
play

05/03/23 • 10 min

In this week’s episode we’ll be talking about prehistoric architecture. Before getting into prehistoric architecture, one must first understand the meaning of architecture. Architecture is the art and science of designing and building structures. So now what does prehistory mean? The word prehistory literally means the period before history was written down, before any kind of written explanation of culture and civilization. The main question we will be asking and addressing is "How did humans live and build structures before modern day?" There are a few essential shapes and concepts that predate any known civilization and were significant enough to have influenced major architectural advances in the centuries and millennia to come, and we will track those concepts in this week's episode!

Evolution Unraveled - Ep. 4: "Dark-DNA"

Ep. 4: "Dark-DNA"

Evolution Unraveled

play

10/30/22 • 8 min

What is Dark-DNA? In this episode, we’ll discuss the phenomenon dubbed “Dark-DNA,” which describes segments of the genome that appear to be missing. Are they actually missing, or could they be hiding the key to evolutionary change?

A puzzle posed by segments of ‘dark matter’ in genomes — long, twisting strands of DNA with no obvious functions — has baffled scientists for more than a decade. This seemingly “missing” or “hidden” aspect of DNA has been dubbed “Dark-DNA.” We still don't know why it exists, but just like dark matter has greatly influenced the universe’s structure and growth, this so-called dark DNA could change the way we think about evolution.

Today's guest is Tony Wall from Noēsis!
Anthony Wall graduated from the William Penn Charter School in Philadelphia. He subsequently relocated to Chicago, where he completed his studies at Lake Forest College. Wall cites his continued interest in existential philosophy to his liberal arts education. His career spanned two decades in the financial services sector. He then realized that he was continually drawn to the study of humankind.
Wall founded Noēsis in 2019, a nonprofit organization focused on themes of human sustainability. He created an abundance of educational videos to explain the profound impact of evolution on modern behavior. The goal of Noēsis is to identify the evolutionary triggers of current human behavior before freeing humanity from the loop of infinite conflict.
These invisible and entirely unsolved conflict motivators are still embroiled in old wars with extinct foes. Together, these vestiges of human development have eroded and ultimately destroyed all earlier human cultures. With these antiquated treasures on its back, the human species stumbles into the present. Humans can and must fathom the causes of chronic human failure, or we run the risk of losing everything through inaction.

Evolution Unraveled - Ep. 7: Epigenetics

Ep. 7: Epigenetics

Evolution Unraveled

play

03/24/23 • 18 min

The idea of ​​epigenetics has changed since it was first proposed in 1939 by Conrad Waddington as a way to reconcile the conflicting theories of preformist and epigenetic schools, but the definition of epigenetics has changed, it's still the subject of intense controversy. One of the most intriguing modern concepts in genetics is the epigenome, which serves as a link between the genome and the phenotype. The epigenome is so highly innovative that it has the potential to change our current understanding of heredity and evolution.

Even two people with identical DNA can have very different personalities. For cells, the same holds true. The same set of 20,000 genes are present in every cell in your body, including the skin cells in your toes and the retinal cells in your eyes. The cornerstone for each cell's identity, however, is provided by this common genetic blueprint.

Few other technical scientific topics have recently captivated the public's interest like epigenetics has. The "epigenetic revolution" and claims that epigenetics undermines our knowledge of evolution are frequently discussed in headlines. What exactly is epigenetics then? How does it operate? Why is it important? And is it the future of personalized healthcare?
