Integrative Biology 131: General Human Anatomy. Fall 2005. Professor Marian Diamond. The functional anatomy of the human body as revealed by gross and microscopic examination. The Department of Integrative Biology offers a program of instruction that focuses on the integration of structure and function in the evolution of diverse biological systems. It investigates integration at all levels of organization from molecules to the biosphere, and in all taxa of organisms from viruses to higher plants and animals. The department uses many traditional fields and levels of complexity in forging new research directions, asking new questions, and answering traditional questions in new ways.
The Lung Genomics Research Consortium’s John Quackenbush, Ph.D., Professor of Computational Biology & Bioinformatics at Havard Medical School and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses his background and his earlier work on The Human Genome Project in 1992 and how this project has shaped his career.

This is the first of a series of songs I am doing using Wolfram Tones to automatically generate beats. “WolframTones is based on a core discovery in Stephen Wolfram’s A New Kind of Science: in the computational universe, even extremely simple rules or programs can give complex behavior. WolframTones works by taking simple programs from Wolfram’s computational universe and using music theory and Mathematica algorithms to render them as music. Each program in effect defines a virtual world, with its own special story–and WolframTones captures it as a musical composition. Potential applications for this new kind of music range from scoring an entire film to creating personalized ringtones for cell phones.” media.wolfram.com +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Rule Type: 31 (r=2) Rule: 3122989581 Seed: 9183 my brain trained to bang with amazing aim i make the games and create the maze innovate the change that abate the pains / race the flames taste the shame take the blame I break the frame while i rearrange DNA in the strain straighten the grain I remain sane while so many attain fame just waste away that’s why I plot and plan like Aubrey de Grey / lames don’t know they only safe for today major player don’t wanna wait or stay in his lane / I wanna kill him resurrect him put my blood in his veins / obtain the dame willing escape the chains quick / stick it to the villain hating I’m fed up with the bullshit / space is the place ma come fuck with an ace I seen shorty one …

From a lecture called “Defenders of the Faith.” – All 11 parts should be available on YouTube somewhere. Please do dua for him and his family or write a letter to him in prison. Dr. Ali al-Timimi 48054-083 Alexandria Detention Center 2001 Mill Road Alexandria, Virginia 22314 www.cageprisoners.com Ali Al Timimi (also known as Shaykh Ali Al-Timimi; born December 14, 1963, in Washington, DC) is an American of Iraqi heritage who was born and raised in Washington DC. On December 1, 2004, he successfully defended his dissertation on “Chaos and Complexity in Cancer” and was awarded a Doctorate of Philosophy in Computational Biology. He also holds undergraduate degrees in both Biology and Computer Science. In addition to his scientific background, Ali Al-Timimi possesses a background in Islamic studies. In 1987, he was the recipient of a scholarship to study theology at the Islamic University of Medina, Saudi Arabia. While living in Medina, he also furthered his studies with the great scholars of the Prophet’s mosque. Due to his passion for learning, he quickly progressed in his studies and is recognized as one of the few Muslim experts in the US in the field of Islamic Theology and Philosophy. He has taught both Theology and Quranic studies at the University level. For over 15 years Ali Al-Timimi has delivered hundreds of Islamic workshops and lectures locally and around the world. www.freeali.org

Complexity (Part 4): The Origin Of Life: Chemistry + Biology = Abiogenesis — Subscribe to Science & Reason: • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com — CHEMISTRY Stars like our own Sun form from gas clouds that have about every kind of element there is as well as some pretty complicated molecules. Stuff leftover after the sun forms usually turns into a system of planets. Some of these planets have solid surfaces, perhaps liquid seas and a gaseous atmosphere; a rich environment for atoms and molecules to come together in complex chemical reactions. Carbon atoms in particular, link together to form complex organic molecules and amino acids. Chemical catalysts speed reactions along. The products of one chemical reaction become the raw material for new reactions. At some level of complexity a catalyst became an enzyme, an amino acid chain became a protein, a loop of chemical reactions became a metabolism, and chemistry became … biology. BIOLOGY On our own planet, and perhaps countless others – life arose. The DNA molecule, which is the basis of all organic life on Earth, is more intricate by far than any spiral galaxy – because the structure of DNA contains something new – something that was missing from inanimate matter before the origin of life – it contains information. The DNA molecule encodes not only the information necessary to make copies of itself, but the information necessary to construct an entire organism. The blueprints for an ant or a dolphin …

Google Tech Talks June, 11 2008 Title: “Levy Processes and Applications to Machine Learning” ABSTRACT: Nonparametric Bayesian methods are a generalization of probabilistic models where the prior distribution can be a stochastic process, a distribution over a possibly uncountably infinite number of random variables. The great flexibility of these methods has led to applications in natural language processing, machine vision, computational biology and other fields. I will introduce Levy processes, which generalize several of these methods. Levy processes are random measures that give independent mass to independent increments. As an example I will show how they can be used to model various types of data such as binary vectors or vectors of counts, with applications to text and images. These techniques are related to the better known Dirichlet process. Speaker: Research Scientist – ROMAIN THIBAUX
