Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard 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.
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

6. Food fromAir
and Electricity
The idea of “food from air” is to use renewable
power to capture carbon directly from the air and
turn it into a simple compound, such as formate,
that bacteria can feed on.
Several companies are trying to commercialize food
from air. For instance, Solar Foods of Finland aims to
have a demonstration plant running in 2023.
7. Food fromAir
and Electricity
“If you have 10 square kilometres of soya bean
fields in the Amazon, hypothetically you could
make that 1 square kilometre of solar panels
and reforest the other nine.”
8. Formate
Formate (IUPAC name: methanoate) is the
anion derived from formic acid.
A formate (compound) is a salt or ester of
formic acid.“ CHO2- ”
9. Food fromAir
and Electricity
A company called Calysta is already producing
animal feed made from bacteria fed on
methane, but the methane is derived from
fossil sources.
Methane Uses ?
10. Solar Foods
They’ve managed to grow a nutrient rich
protein called solein, which is made from a
single microbe using carbon dioxide - from the
air - and hydrogen that is split from water using
electricity.
Solar Foods is a Finnish food-tech startup “ In Finland “ that is pilot
testing a technology that uses electricity to produce hydrogen which
is combined with carbon dioxide, water, vitamins and minerals to feed
and grow a microbial biomass that can be used as edible protein.The
company was founded in 2017. Wikipedia

13. The Electric
Bioreactor
Farm
After exposing the raw materials to electrolysis in a
bioreactor, the process forms a powder that
consists of more than 50 percent protein and 25
percent carbohydrates — the texture can also be
changed by altering the microbes used in the
production.

The next stage, is to optimize the system
because, currently, a bioreactor the size of a
coffee cup takes around two weeks to produce
one gram of the protein.
15. Green houses ?
Agriculture and related land use is a significant
contributor to greenhouse gases worldwide
and in 2018, was responsible for pumping 9.3
billion tonnes of carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere , according to the UN Food and
Agriculture Organization (FAO).
16. Natural

"The problem in the current food system is that
about one third of the climate impact due to
human action is due to what we eat, and about
80 per cent of that is due to animal production.
Solein (is) nutritionally similar to meat and
meat like products, dairy products or milk. And
that is what we want to replace."
18. NASA Deep
Space Food
Challenge
• The Deep Space Food Challenge, a NASA Centennial Challenge, seeks
ideas for novel food production technologies or systems that require
minimal resources and produce minimal waste, while providing safe,
nutritious, and tasty food for long-duration human exploration missions.
• Solutions from this challenge could enable new avenues for food
production around the world, especially in extreme environments,
resource-scarce regions, and in new places like urban areas and in locations
where disasters disrupt critical infrastructure.
19. Hydroponics
Hydroculture which involves growing plants, usually
crops, without soil, by using water-based mineral
nutrient solutions in aqueous solvents.
Aquatic plants may grow with their roots exposed to the
nutritious liquid or in addition, the roots may be
physically supported by an inert medium such as
perlite, gravel, or other substrates.
