Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.

Slide 1: Title Slide
Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Slide 2: Introduction to Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Definition: Extrachromosomal inheritance refers to the transmission of genetic material that is not found within the nucleus.
Key Components: Involves genes located in mitochondria, chloroplasts, and plasmids.
Slide 3: Mitochondrial Inheritance
Mitochondria: Organelles responsible for energy production.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA): Circular DNA molecule found in mitochondria.
Inheritance Pattern: Maternally inherited, meaning it is passed from mothers to all their offspring.
Diseases: Examples include Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and mitochondrial myopathy.
Slide 4: Chloroplast Inheritance
Chloroplasts: Organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plants.
Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA): Circular DNA molecule found in chloroplasts.
Inheritance Pattern: Often maternally inherited in most plants, but can vary in some species.
Examples: Variegation in plants, where leaf color patterns are determined by chloroplast DNA.
Slide 5: Plasmid Inheritance
Plasmids: Small, circular DNA molecules found in bacteria and some eukaryotes.
Features: Can carry antibiotic resistance genes and can be transferred between cells through processes like conjugation.
Significance: Important in biotechnology for gene cloning and genetic engineering.
Slide 6: Mechanisms of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Non-Mendelian Patterns: Do not follow Mendel’s laws of inheritance.
Cytoplasmic Segregation: During cell division, organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts are randomly distributed to daughter cells.
Heteroplasmy: Presence of more than one type of organellar genome within a cell, leading to variation in expression.
Slide 7: Examples of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Four O’clock Plant (Mirabilis jalapa): Shows variegated leaves due to different cpDNA in leaf cells.
Petite Mutants in Yeast: Result from mutations in mitochondrial DNA affecting respiration.
Slide 8: Importance of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Evolution: Provides insight into the evolution of eukaryotic cells.
Medicine: Understanding mitochondrial inheritance helps in diagnosing and treating mitochondrial diseases.
Agriculture: Chloroplast inheritance can be used in plant breeding and genetic modification.
Slide 9: Recent Research and Advances

1. COMPOSITION OF THE MICROBIAL WORLD
TURNING POINTS IN MICROBIAL RESEARCH
MICROORGANISMS AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE EARTH
MODERN AGE OF MICROBIOLOGY
3. DISCOVERY OF MICROBIAL LIFE
The exact beginning of the knowledge about the existence
of microorganisms can be traced back only to the latter
part of the seventeenth century
4. Antony van Leeuwenhoek first recorded observations of
microorganisms ( bacteria,yeasts and protozoa) seen in
water,faeces,teeth scrappings etc ….
5. Antony van Leeuwenhoek
* began making and using simple microscopes
* often made a new microscope for each specimen
* examined water and visualized fungi,algae and
protozoa : ‘animalcules’
6. COMPOSITION OF THE MICROBIAL WORLD
Viruses
Bacteria
Archaea
Protozoans
Fungi
Algae
7. BACTERIA
Single celled
Lacks well organized nucleus
The nuclear material is not surrounded by nuclear
membrane (nucleoid)
Some bacteria are autotrophic;they possess
bacteriochlorophyll
May be saprophytic,mutualistic or parasitic
8.
9. Bacterial cell wall is a dense layer, surrounding the
plasma membrane
The main constituent of the cell wall is peptidoglycan
It gives shape & rigidity to the cell
The organelles like mitochondria,endoplasmic
reticulum,golgi apparatus are absent
10. Bacteria reproduce asexually
Multiply most commonly by binary fission
The motile bacteria possess one or more flagella
11. ARCHAEA
They often occur in extreme aquatic & terrestrial
habitats, which may be anaerobic,hypersaline or
hyperthermophilic
They also seen in very low temperature environments
Rod - shaped,spherical,spiral,lobed,
plate shaped,irregularly shaped or pleomorphic
12.
13. Some are unicellular,others are filamentous or
aggregates
Diameter – 0.1 to 15 micrometer
Both gram positive & gram negative are present
Reproduction - binary fission,fragmentation,budding
14.
15. ALGAE
They are mostly photoautotrophs
Primarily they inhabit aquatic habitats
The vegetative body does not show any differentiation
into various tissue systems
16.
17. They possess mostly unicellular sex organs without a
jacket of sterile cells around them
They show progressive complexity in reproduction
They do not develop embryo after fusion of gametes
during sexual reproduction
They show distinct alternation of generations
18. PROTOZOANS
o Protozoa are mostly free living
o They are mostly aquatic,inhabiting fresh and marine
waters and damp places
o Parasitic and commensal protozoa live over or inside
the bodies of animals and plants
19. o Protozoa are unicellular
o They contain one or more nuclei and organelles,with
little or no histological differentiation into tissues and
organs
o They occur singly or form loose colonies in which
individuals remain alike and independent
o Vegetative body of protozoa is naked or bounded by a
pellicle
20. o The shape of the cell usually constant but changes with
changing environment
o The single cell performs all the essential vital activities
hence there is little or no physiological division of
labour
o Locomotary organs are pseudopodia or flagella or
cilia;they may be absent
21. o Nutrition – may be holozoic (animal like), halophytic
(plant like),saprophytic or parasitic
o Reproduction – asexually by binary or multiple fission &
budding
o Sexually by conjugation of the adults or by the fusion of
gametes
22. FUNGI
Vegetative body is usually represented by a filament
called hyphae
Hyphae together are referred to as mycelium
Hyphae are septate or non-septate
Cell wall is mainly made up of chitin often called
‘fungus cellulose’
23.
24. Vegetative body is not divided into root,stem and
leaves
Has no specialized tissues for the internal transport of
water & nutrients
They are heterotrophs;may be parasites or saprophytes
They lack chlorophyll
25. Food is stored in the form of glycogen
Both, sexual & asexual reproduction are present
Asexual reproduction – Sporangiospores & Conidia
Sexual reproduction – Antheridia & Oogonia
26. VIRUSES
All viruses are obligate parasites
They multiply only within their living host cells
Metabolically inert outside the host cell
They are ultramicroscopic; can only be viewed with
electron microscope
27. Viruses are actually nucleoproteins
The proteinaceous coat surrounds the nucleic
acid,which forms the central core of the virus particles
The viral genetic material ,may be either DNA or RNA
They are easily transmitted from infected host to the
healthy ones through various agencies
28. Viruses are host specific
They have no metabolic activities of their own
They utilize the metabolism of host cells
29. MICROBES AND ORIGIN OF LIFE
Abiogenesis
• Men of ancient times believed that all living organisms
could spring forth spontaneously from non – living
matter
• This belief has been referred to as Doctrine of
Spontaneous Generation or Abiogenesis
30. • They believed that frogs,snakes and mice could be
born of moist soil
• Flies could emerge from the manure,and that maggots
could arise from the decaying corpses
• This idea continued until the mid 19th century with great
oppositions against it
31. Redi’s Experiment (1626-1679)
• Francesco Redi,an italian physician, demonstrated that
abiogenesis does not exist
• He took rotting meat pieces and placed them in jars
• He sealed some of these jars tightly and left others
open
• In a few days, maggots appeared in open jars only
32. • Redi concluded that the maggots arise from the eggs
laid down by the parent flies
• That the maggots can not appear spontaneously
33. John Needham’s Experiment (1745)
• Needham heated chicken broth and nutrient fluids
before pouring them into covered flasks
• The cooled solutions showed existence of tiny
organisms in them
• He claimed that the organisms are originated
spontaneously from the nutrient fluids
34. Pasteur’s Experiment (1861)
In his swan-necked flask experiment he took various
type of broths (yeast water,sugared yeast water,urine
etc)
Then,softened the neck of the flasks under a flame &
drew it out in the shape of ‘S’ looking like the neck of
swan
35. • The broths of these flasks were boiled until they
steamed through the necks,and then cooled
• The broths so treated in the flasks did not decay
• There were no signs of microbes in them after
days,weeks and even months though they were open
to free air
36. • Pasteur’s unique swan-necks of the flasks trapped air –
borne microorganisms before they could reach the
broth and flourish in it
• Definitely discredited the doctrine of spontaneous
generation
