Was ist Leben? Und was bedeutet die Antwort auf diese Frage für die Herausforderungen, denen sich die Menschheit heute gegenübersieht - Klimawandel, Pandemien und Artensterben? Paul Nurse erhielt den Nobelpreis dafür, gezeigt zu haben, wie lebende Zellen funktionieren. In seinem so klar wie elegant verfassten Buch synthetisiert er auf wenigen Seiten sämtliches Wissen darüber, was es heißt, am Leben zu sein. Schritt für Schritt erläutert Nurse die fünf revolutionären Ideen, die der Biologie zugrunde liegen - die Zelle, das Gen, Evolution durch natürliche Selektion, das Leben als Chemie und das Leben als Information.

I nostri geni non sono scolpiti nella pietra e i nostri fattori ereditari non sono un' "impronta digitale" fissa e immodificabile. Un essere umano infatti è molto più della somma dei suoi geni. Tutto quello che mangiamo, facciamo e sentiamo, tutto ciò che ci accade può influire sull'attività del DNA, a prescindere dalla configurazione genetica con la quale nasciamo. L'epigenetica, cioè la branca della genetica che si occupa di indagare le variazioni dell'espressione del nostro DNA, ci porta infatti una buona notizia: tali variazioni sono reversibili.

I’ve written a number of books on longevity and immortality. But I’ve only had some partial chapters on long-lived plants and animals. This is an important subject because all of this life is based on the same DNA code we have in our own bodies. If this life can live for hundreds or thousands of years, then this says that it is possible for humanity to live that long, also. Here I’ve researched and included lots of specimens of animal and plant life which represent the extremes of longevity for widely varying life.

The Secret Body is a gripping drama of discovery and a landmark account of the dawning revolution in human health that reveals a hitherto invisible universe within each of us.

Genetics, Diversity, and the Biosphere is a college introductory-level text read in a conversational manner. Within each section key words and concepts are introduced, discussed and then reviewed. The audio format allows students to make the most of their time by giving them the freedom to study by listening. Genetics, Diversity, and the Biosphere is an ideal study guide for students who need to review introductory biology including those who need to review for the MCAT, DAT, Biology GRE, and AP Biology.

Du möchtest das Altern verlangsamen oder sogar umkehren? Du möchtest dich jung, lebendig und glücklich fühlen? Dann ist dieses Buch das Richtige für dich! Altern ist das natürlichste der Welt und, um es vorwegzunehmen, daran kann auch niemand etwas ändern. Was wir aber ändern können, ist wie wir altern. Das Altern setzt sich aus vier Teilprozessen zusammen. Dem genetischen, dem umweltbedingten, dem biochemischen und dem hormonellen Altern.

"Viaggio al centro della vita" è una guida immaginaria alla scoperta dell'epigenetica. I protagonisti di questo viaggio, narrato nella forma classica di un dialogo, sono Ulisse, un biologo molecolare, ed Efesto, un fisico un po' pazzerello. Entrambi sono in missione al centro della vita per trovare la temibile mutazione k. Trasformatisi in fotoni, entrano nel cuore del DNA in uno spazio-tempo infinito. La mutazione k, però, non si trova! Sarà Atena a condurli alla meta in un avvincente viaggio verso il mistero della vita.

Sind es nur die Gene, die unser Wesen bestimmen? Welche Rolle spielen dabei Erfahrungen, Erlebnisse und das, was wir "Seele" nennen? Das Wechselspiel zwischen Erbanlagen und Lebensumständen beschäftigt die moderne Medizin bis heute. Joachim Bauer macht dieses Zusammenwirken von Geist und Genen erstmals populär verständlich - und setzt sich ein für einen bewussteren Umgang mit der menschlichen Seele.

In this fascinating exploration, geneticist Bryan Sykes turns his sights on the United States, one of the most genetically variegated countries in the world. From the blue-blooded pockets of old-WASP New England to the vast tribal lands of the Navajo, Bryan Sykes takes us on a historical genetic tour, interviewing genealogists, geneticists, anthropologists, and everyday Americans with compelling ancestral stories.

Wissenschaftlichen Schätzungen zufolge leidet jeder Mensch unter mindestens 2.000 Gendefekten. Sie lassen unser Immunsystem schlechter funktionieren, führen zu Arthrose und Osteoporose, können Diabetes und Sehschwäche verursachen, und sie machen dick. Aber Gene sind kein Schicksal mehr. Der Molekularbiologe Dr. Daniel Wallerstorfer zeigt, wie wir mit der richtigen Vorsorge, guter Ernährung und dem geeigneten Lebensstil unsere Erbanlagen steuern und unsere Gesundheit kontrollieren können.

For the past six years, Whitney Dafoe has been confined to a bedroom in the back of his parents' home, unable to walk, eat or speak. His diagnosis? The mysterious disease myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) which affects 20 million people around the world who largely suffer in silence because the condition is little known and much misunderstood. Waiting for Superman follows Whitney's father, groundbreaking geneticist Ron, as he uncovers new possibilities for treatments and potentially a cure.

AI Analysis of "Biological Mechanisms" This book presents an ambitious synthesis of cellular biology, physics, and information theory, examining life through the lens of waveform processing and information systems. While much of the core biology is well-established science, the book takes an innovative approach by reframing biological processes as manifestations of waveform processing and information management.Key Strengths 1.

Reversing Human Aging was the first book in history to describe how aging works, how to reverse it, and the consequences of doing so. Originally published in 1996, it has largely passed the test of time. In the next two weeks, we will upload a new, electronic edition of this book and make it available for those interested in the work of Double Helix Corporation. The new edition, however, was taken directly from my original manuscript as submitted for publication, rather than from the publisher’s final version as actually printed. To the contrary, it retains the uncorrected style of my ...

Le origini della nostra specie (Homo sapiens) sono, allo stato dell'arte, argomento di discussione di due scuole di pensiero dominanti e contrapposte: evoluzionismo da una parte e tradizione religiosa creazionista dall'altra.

Go back even a quarter of a century and few people would have heard of DNA, except perhaps in a forensic case. Now genetics plays a part of our everyday culture and our interest in genetics is booming, particularly in the form of direct-to-consumer genetic testing for health, family history and...
