To detect diseases earlier, let's speak bacteria's secret language | Fatima AlZahra'a Alatraktchi

- Bacteria "talk" to each other, sending chemical information to coordinate attacks. What if we could listen to what they were saying? Nanophysicist Fatima AlZahra'a Alatraktchi invented a tool to spy on bacterial chatter and translate their secret communication into human language. Her work could pave the way for early diagnosis of disease -- before we even get sick.

Not only is the information in the lecture amazing but this is actually one of the best talks ever - easy to understand and remember and something we should all care about.
Wonderful! Just downloaded your paper in PLoS ONE (March 2018). This is fascinating to an old microbiologist. Thank you 😊
May I get the full link to the paper?
May I the link of the paper
That is really a milestone in medicine, hat's off to your work
I love her voice & accent! Great talk!
When this technology starts saving lives in the future, y'all better give her a Nobel Prize!
51 dislikes? Bacteria didn't like her invention, I guess!
No, just the alt-right boys who mass down vote almost any talk not done by a white christian man.

Lol 😜
I didn't dislike. I'm more respectful than that. But everytime I have to see another woman dressed in large black clothes and hiding the part of his body whe her brain is kept because otherwise she would offend muslim man when you are looking or be taken as an avaliable "public woman" when you're not anymore, i feel the urge to use my hands for something else than disliking. Here in Europe you can see rich an aristocratic muslim ladies in Paris or the Côte d'Azur dressed the occidental way throwing away hundreds of thousands of euros while poor girls are beaten to death, lapidated or arrested, even reported by their own families, for the crime of not wearing a hijab. I'm mad at all of this. I understand people disliked.
Because lyme is such a tricky infection to detect, perhaps this could help with earlier diagnosis. LYME must be treated almost immediately after infected, so this could be ground breaking!
Brilliantly put: Thank you 🙏🏻.
I never would've known about this interesting topic had I not clicked on this Ted talk. She is very inspiring and hopefully this technology becomes viable and can help prevent unnecessary deaths in the future.
Can we create a rebellion inside the bacterias and turn them against each other? Like we usually do ti topple governments
These aren't the diphtheria your looking for

I appreciate your such an amazing technique and truly amazed.
Never been this early to a TED talk before.

Early blogger catches the early talk?
well .. I can easily say this is one of the best TED talks I've ever watched. informative, well driven and so creative! keep up the amazing job Fatima!
Would have liked to see a demo of her device, never heard bacteria speak before. Can this method determine the type of bacteria, like what causes Lyme disease?
This is amazing! Keep up the great work!
Amazing. Truly brilliant. Thank you for your research
Is that your dp? 😲
Fantastic sister. Its phenomenal wow
amazing! we need more scientists like her to improve our current medical care. And also more budget towards medical research and not military &weapons development.
💯
masyaAllah, splendid speech, amazed and sad in the same time. Indonesia very need this tools, we are the highest neglected tropical disease (NTDs) with the enormous population. i hope this invention reach indonesian's medication soon
This is so cool! Imagine if the devices are used in most hospitals, there would be many lives we could save!
I watched this several months ago somewhere and good that this made it here! Good Job Fatima!
Truly astonishing! Such a breakthrough to medicine! Fatima, you made a mesmerizing research, which may help a billions of people with bacteria diseases to get a remedy💕
I really love the part from the minute 04:08 in which she explains everything in a natural way to make us understand the great job she is doing. She is amazing and I really hope everything she is doing for the health ends up in a really positive way. Best whishes from Spain
That last 6 minutes is heartbreaking!
I'm so happy I found this video! I'd also love to read her research about this!
At the end of that road lurks a Nobel prize ... What a great science communicator!
Great work, great talk! Thank you!
Awesome work! And a very good presentation.
Great work, also you are an excellent speaker 👍🏻
Amazing¡ i hope this method gets to everyone around the world¡
Brilliant! Excellent TED Talk!
Ted talks are always sooo interesting! Thanks!!!!!
I am grateful to you.
Thank you.
Great job Fatima💕👍
Amazing work Fatima... sensational!
This is amazing! Keep going!
Wow bacteria communicating!?! Does a bacteria having a nucleus effect how or if they communicate? This concept is really interesting. Great job.
Bacteria don't have nuclei, they're prokaryotes.
very good work!
Wonderful work
Great work. Wish her all the best.
Truly Amazing
Send this tool to India. We need this. Congratulations for this breakthrough!
Thank you for your work!! What a future we may have, to heal even more people. That is God's work.
mashaallah.
that was amazing ... and thought provoking for me .. keep working on your device ... may allah award you
Good job ..!
Bacterial life looks like human life habit 😁🙊
Bubun Beauty Care ...Bacteria speak arabic. Knew it
@@AManWithaWoodenleg2 I don't understand bacteria language, coz healthy science is not my skill. My skill are youtube content creator culinary specialist + review food products & wedding review.

It's amazied talk. Her voice is cleanly and interresting. She is considering and activity.

Great talk!
I am happy to notice the clip catches enough attention.
This is so interesting. I want to learn more about it.
is this a reupload or something? I've already seen this one before
That's truly astonishing! Ma shaa Allah to you, what a great role model you are 💕
Congrats from Manaus.
Fatima You are a genius!!!
nice work

I like her talk
That is great 👍
Love this new discovery.
Great 👍
_Also phages a.k.a bacteria eaters will be our new tool to retire ant-biotic treatments and head-on tackling superbug_
Love it
This says that bacteria release signals before they seriously attack, and this women has tests that uncover bacteria's early signalling before the culture is positive. Her reaction is to treat early with antibiotics. Antibiotics results in microbiome responding with more virulent strains. Perhaps there is an alternative to antibiotics. Maybe intermittent fasting- not eating for 12- 16- 20 ? hours per day, keeps the bacterial microbiome from fighting, or becoming virulent by making them thin out on a daily basis- instead of them reproducing more by making their food constantly available in high amounts. Could this explain why under-eating has always been associated with longevity?
Interesting
wow this video's really appreciating and this is my first time viewing in this channel 😍
Interesting ...
Human are those bacteria earth body has.
Someone talking about molecular biology and a lot of comments are about clothes and stereotyping
And they call us undeveloped
One word RItalin
Dear, did you find out f they talk the same syntax? How many different languages did you discover and is there a relationship to the class of bacteria? What do they tell when virus is nearby?
I really don't understand how stupid the TED camera was directed bl we bring her totally out when she produced the funny sections.
Her company is Prediagnose
SmarterEveryDay last two videos.
Mashallah.
Let's enjoy some "Bacteria Family Drama" 😎
goode 👍👍👍👍
It's phenomenal...but what next Fatima?
Pls don't restrict the idea by patenting it. You can ofcourse do it but mankind need it do pls make sure the idea reaches every human being, with that u could save millions...
Hats off but would love to see next steps
Bacteria's secret language? Metallic Archaea? Nano machines?
i just told my bacteria to behave themselves 🤳🏻 🌌 🌕 💧 =_=
Can you tell me exactly what you said because I looked it up on Google Translate and "Bacterial language" wasn't there.
I think s/he said ‘Fresh vegetables, sunshine, water , peace and happiness’ and something else I couldn’t read.
@@FrogLehane IT'S TOO NEW
This sounds very promising
I'm pretty sure I've seen this talk before
BACTERIA HAS SWORDS
Muslims were the best in Sciences during the Middle Age and invented a lot of things.
Thank to Arabs just like the Greks, Chineses, French, Indians,...
A lot of great inventions came from this peoples.
@breath of a wild baby it didn't need reform in itself the rapid expansion and collapse lead to regression not the original form
@breath of a wild baby you have an ideal image of your western society I advise you to reflect on it with a critical overview
Fayssal Amin
I wrote « Arabs » at the end, I know not all Muslims are Arabs.
@breath of a wild baby we have more women in science than you have today and in the future
@breath of a wild baby I am pretty serious, and I can name not only one but more than you can imagine
So how can she find out earlier while the traditional stuff can’t? Is that cuz of fda?

This was very educational. I didn't''t know bacterias could communicate to kill u. I like how she included humor in her presentation.

If you're experience any symptoms of a disease early, you should definitely go for a check up, better safe than sorry
Can someone with knowledge in microbiology explain.. Are bacteria and virus living being ??
Bacteria - Yes. They are prokaryotes.
Viruses - Technically no. They are proteins.
not virus
Ree Zo viruses are not classified as alive. They do not have all life functions. Bacteria’s are
Counter argument they viruses can reproduce
@@sanadbenali6993 Can't have metabolism though. Therefore they are not alive by the latest accepted definition.
Eyllahoo Ekbaar !!!

Fatima You are great and beautyful and funny! I knew that nobody will understand your joke in the begining of the video.
I can only focus on her not on what she talking 😍
How can you dumb down a topic that much
One
Why not add Arabic translation
or chinese. and spanish, can't leave out spanish. danish? maybe. swedish more likely. german? why not?
