  7. The highly complex process of embryonic development and cell differentiation, driven by DNA methylation, is fundamentally governed by simple, universal physical laws rather than isolated biochemical networks. This organization allows initially identical cells to adopt specific identities and form diverse tissues.

    The podcast describes a "split-level" model of the human mind:

    • The Store Consciousness (Alayavijnana): This is the foundational layer represented by dense, rich soil deep underground. It operates 24 hours a day as a neutral database, holding every thought, action, and perception as a "seed"

    This exploration uses the teachings of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh to provide a practical blueprint for understanding human perception, memory, habit formation, and the mechanical roots of suffering. The core metaphor utilized is the "Garden of Consciousness," a visual anchor modeled after a medieval, Bruegel-style illuminated manuscript.

  10. The Art of Composting Suffering Into Wisdom

    This podcast is a "deep dive" into a foundational framework of Buddhist psychology known as the Eight Consciousnesses.

  13. Comparison of DNA from cord blood to that from blood taken at ages 5-12 of over 3,400 children from 11 countries found an association between breastfeeding and epigenetic changes. Breastfeeding for at least three months induced long-term changes in the expression of genes associated with development and immunity.

  15. Epigenetics serves as the indispensable bridge between static genetic instruction and biological plasticity. It shifts the biological paradigm away from deterministic rigidity by detailing the exact molecular syntax of how the fixed hardware of our DNA is actively operated by the shifting software of our environment.

  16. 🧬🔬 We often think of #cloning as making a perfect carbon copy, but new #research shows it's much more complicated.

    Scientists found that cloned #animals experience rapid changes in how their #genes are expressed, leading to #health issues that aren't present in naturally born animals.

  17. @DenisMeuthen , PI of the @idealab , contributed to an opinion paper 📜 in Trends in Ecology and Evolution ( @TrendsEcolEvo ) . In this paper, we hypothesize that niche processes (niche choice, niche construction, niche conformance) and epigenetic variation are causally and bidirectionally linked. Studying this bidirectional causal relationship will deepen our understanding of the proximate mechanisms underlying individualization and elucidate how epigenetic variation arises, persists, and contributes to evolution.

  18. 🎉New preprint out today! We present rastair - an ultra-fast SNP and methylation caller for TAPS or 5-Base data. Rastair takes less than 1h to process e.g. a 50x 5-Base dataset, yet SNP call accuracy is nearly identical to GATK on WGS data 🔥
