- www.ted.com We have no ways to directly observe molecules and what they do -- Drew Berry wants to change that. At TEDxSydney he shows his scientifically accurate (and entertaining!) animations that help researchers see unseeable processes within our own cells.
TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes. Featured speakers have included Al Gore on climate change, Philippe Starck on design, Jill Bolte Taylor on observing her own stroke, Nicholas Negroponte on One Laptop per Child, Jane Goodall on chimpanzees, Bill Gates on malaria and mosquitoes, Pattie Maes on the "Sixth Sense" wearable tech, and "Lost" producer JJ Abrams on the allure of mystery. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, and TEDTalks cover these topics as well as science, business, development and the arts. Closed captions and translated subtitles in a variety of languages are now available on TED.com, at www.ted.com/translate

Are there more animations? I could binge watch 5 seasons of him explaining these animations if netflix had it.
Glad you like my animations! All of them are available for free at wehi.tv or our UA-cam Channel ua-cam.com/video/7Hk9jct2ozY/v-deo.html
@@ajbiv I'm a Biologist by training. I loved the Microbiology world but I could never wrap my head around it due to my inability to envision what I was being taught. This is an excellent idea and very helpful. Can you do chemistry next?
@@ajbiv It's the most incredibly amazing thing I have ever seen. I have 10,000 questions.
@@ajbiv great, amazing work man. as much as i look it this, im more convinced that somebody made us.
So accurate. @Drew Berry please...
10 minutes doesn't do this guy justice. So interesting - so short.
@itsasin1969 Because it´s true.
10 minutes is a travesty. This man and this topic are worth at least a whole TV series, one that would surely humble us the way that Cosmos did.

Totaly agreed!

Truly.
For real!!
We couldn't give this guy a little more than 10 minutes? I've seen TED talks that go for 40 minutes. This guy got shafted, and you could literally feel his frustration.
I can guess why he got shafted. These machines demonstrate design.
@@Idazmi7 Alien design.
@vin 950
_"yep, the wonderful design of billions of years of evolution."_
Spoken like a true child. The part where your entire belief system falls apart is the part where the cell received the instructions necessary to operate a complex, self-replicating factory that - from itself - became _trillions_ of differentiated and specialized variations all prepared for serving the whole being.
Oh, and don't say "DNA". I know that exists. You explain to me how DNA - a four digit codebase with pre-encoded instructions - came from random happenstance. You may as well believe a Ford factory just randomly sprang into existence on it's own.
@@Idazmi7 I believe CREATOR and also love science. My faith not against science.
@@Cleeon
Exactly.
Not a single one of these machines alone is considered to be alive, yet somehow they all come together to create life...
Reminds me of the the concept of "there being no real fundamental distinction between the mechanical and the organic"
magicstix0r I wonder how they can "walk" on long legs but no muscles…
how about the energy that powers those walkers
I think it has something to do with electrostatic attractions, like what happens with every molecule in every chemical reaction.
+A.DUBITANTE The same way the proteins in your muscles make your muscles move. When you look deep enough into how muscles work, you'll eventually find the part that makes the muscle actually move - and it's pretty much as "simple and small" as these "walkers". It might even be that those machines have a common "ancestor", so to speak :)
So far, it seems that it all boils down to electromagnetism (though there may still be some surprises left). The same thing that pulls the carbon to the oxygen in a molecule of carbon dioxide can be used to build those amazing molecular machines.
Tears actually came to my eyes when they zoomed out past a single histone....
I'm so excited to get into the field of biotechnology. I cannot describe how beautiful that is to me.
The scale of it all is just unreal.
You said it perfectly!! Biotechnology!
you and me both pal!!

The more I learn the more I realise I know very little.
Neil degrasse tyson said that the more we learn about a subject, the more we realize how much we have to learn.
some said: consider yourself a circle and the area of that circle is your knowledge.
As the circle goes larger = u know more = area increases, it's circumference also increases = u see more that u dont know.
@@bacarlson991Neil deGrasse borrowed that from an ancient philosopher.
The same can be said for the scientists that study this microbiology.
I am SO GRATEFUL to this person for making my cell and molecular bio classes like 10 times easier! Fantastic visualizations.
Absolutely incredible - I've seen other such animated representations and I am always amazed - these deserve the Oscars!
My biology teacher in college showed us these animations, and that's what immediately inspired me to be so very passionate about biology and the inner workings of our bodies. It's absolutely incredible and completely changed how I view myself.
do you feel that this must be intelligently inspired? this is obviously a machine.
I don’t know how they feel, but I do feel like some machines could be the products of evolution. After all, from what I have read, very ancient cells of very ancient organisms did not necessarily have all of the biological technology in them that cells of currently living organisms have. So they must have been necessarily more limited in function and thus there were probably fewer types of cells originally because what was inside them was simpler. So we’re looking at millions of years of evolution inside cells as well as of the organisms which those cells make up (if greater than a single celled organism). But don’t take my words for it. Check out the science.
@@andrewbarrett1537 its amazing is what it is. thank you for the insight.
My mind just got blown.
And I suppose it's currently being rebuilt by tiny, colored robots.
nicely put. I wonder if color even exists at the molecular scale
@@bluwasabi7635 nah, or not in the same sense that macroscopic objects give off a color via reflection. Individual atoms and most molecules are smaller than the wavelengths of light themselves, but they can absorb and re-emit light via their electrons. The colors in this video are purely for visual representation, and almost all of the size of these macromolecules shown in the animations are not mass itself but are scaled up (space-filling model). There's different ways to model these molecules and each aren't really true to what you'd see in nature, they're just models based on electromagnetic forces.
@@bluwasabi7635 really, colour only exists in your mind. Nothing has a colour, it's all just photons and electrons doing their little quantum dance.
this is the best animation simulation of the cell that l have ever seen.
I'm studying biochem but everytime I come across these kinds of videos (that we sometimes also watch in lectures) just... I'm so mind blown. all these kinda random but happy accidents that made us ... be alive and ... evolve so much.. HOW ARE WE EVEN ALIVE MAN???!! HOW
Nana there are no accidents, do you see anywhere in nature or in the cosmos random accidental things coming together to create life? Nope. Everything you see is already what it is, that is what it’s supposed to do. Do you wonder why the universe is ordered and not chaos? How can this be, it doesn’t make sense and it is illogical and defies all scientific understanding unless you look at it through the understanding of it was all designed and created. The order in the universe is beyond comprehension. The complexities of the micro and macro leaves you breathless as it should. If God created all this and he did don’t you think then he want to talk to you and have a relationship with you? Think about the power and wisdom of the God who created all this. God actually says, look to me the one who created all the stars and everything you see. If you want to know him just cry out to Jesus in humility and repentance for hurting him by our sin. He loves you and wants you to be with him for all eternity if you will confess him as your Lord and savior and he said you will become a new creation and come alive for the first time. He want to know you and for you to be known by him. Go for it don’t delay for your eyes will be opened and your destiny will unfold before you. God bless. By the way this is just our earth suit but if you receive Jesus he has a much better one waiting for you and you will need it to go where he lives. You were meant for the stars not for an eternity alone and without him.
We are alive because of these guys in the video! ❤
Literally
The best teaching method of abstract world is via this kind of videos.
Nives Kovacevic agreed! I think that is Drew Berry point: in order to teach more new generations, you have to make learning and visualization easier
it works much better than 10000 words in a chapter
This stuff does not seem abstract. You are literally made of this things
If only the 3D models were made with the same level of care as the pictures you see in modern molecular biology textbooks. And these animations have way too much 'noise'... like the thermodynamic wiggling. I can't see any reason to include it, it only acts as a distraction since you can't even see the actual molecular collisions that cause it.
What amazes me the most when I see videos like these is that somehow we, on a much larger scale, are still producing a similar type of work.
Its because its the most optimized design for things. Natural selection in a way
Almost like the universe is fractal in ways we can understand but not explain
So complex at the smallest levels and it all comes together so perfectly to form a human being that is able to cry, love, laugh, and think to a degree of venturing out of this planet or look so deep into the various substances that makes this world absolutely amazing ..... and then they tell us that it’s all happened by chance 🤯
yes around 3.5 billion years of bio-environmental trial and error...
@@Invit123 lol 😂🤣✌️ I'll wait 3 billions year I want a coincidence to create a robot this time.
@@AboudUranium um that's essentially what we are chief.... just complex robots made out of organic tissue. also do you have any idea how long 3 billion years is? if you were to mark 3 billion years evenly over the distance of a soccer field, the entire span of human existence (around 100 thousand years) would be marked by the width of a single blade of grass.
@@Invit123 mind blown just wow.
I'll just throw away some atoms and I'll wait 3 billions year by chance they'll start thinking and making a damn dna and those molecular machine.
Why atheist just think in a coincidence is more logical then intelligence design?
If another creature other than human and happen to be smart found a car or a computer would he think this machine was created by chance like you do.
Something else even this universe isn't a coincidence why the big bang occurred??? Why we are here then give me a single purpose of life you'll say to reproduce and then what or life will be meaningless just end your life and go to the endless darkness already and everyone should do like that we are not going anywhere we will get sucked into a black hole and die anyway then what the universe will die somehow in the end.
@@AboudUranium there is nothing wrong with you believing in intelligent design or theism. for me, it just brings in more questions than answers... I find that secular/non-creationist views regarding the existence life are just more viable and evident, but i understand if it's difficult for you to wrap your head around.
I never watch anyone or anything that's monetized. I'm glad I made an exception. It's fascinating to be able to peer, literally, into another universe. The one we have inside of us. It's as close to an alien reality as we can get, for now.
I have been teaching Biology at the University level for over 30 years. When I was learning these "concepts". We knew the "answers" to many of the difficult issues was coming, once the technology was developed to examine these concepts. With the existence of programs, such as this, I have been thrilled to find that many of my "own" ideas, of how these processes work, has been vindicated. However, sometimes it is sad to see that some of "today's" students, when presented with the beauty of these processes, and given the explanation of how these discoveries were made, do NOT appreciate the significance of this work! As for me, I will continue to teach, and completely enjoy each new discovery in this fantastic world of Biology!
Right you are Mister!!! As the one who is getting paid, it means that someone important recognizes your expertise, So, do what you do!!!.
Crecensio Morales Thank you,my brother J. As a teacher, it has always been great to get a vote of confidence. Also, We had our issues with Brooklyn College, but I was ALWAYS proud of our Biology Dep't,and the knowledge, and expertise, of my professors. That pride also extended to the "first" Department of Puerto Rican Studies in the CUNY system. The knowledge I learned from Prof. Antonio Nadal, and the other faculty, expanded my understanding of our culture!
Nice to hear of such a dedicated teacher! I remember studying biology with a great teacher, which I think makes all the difference between a class you can't wait to leave and a class you can't wait to start. Science needs a bigger standing in American schools, which needs to be pushed for politically, rather difficult with the current president however...
I sometimes doubt the point of presenting such results to people who don't really care - I mean the case when students simply cannot relate to their own experience. On the other hand, the tremendous work about finding and communicating these results is remarkable and impressive on its own and I think the more people are involved, the better it is for the advancement of science as a community. That requires lots of curiosity, patience and engagement, let alone dedicated attention from both learners and teachers, as plain information "got to know" in a classroom environment can be overwhelming and irrelevant without a practical context. I studied electrical engineering, unfortunately the standard curriculum at my university offered very little actual engineering work, but lots of theory and a rather descriptive and attitudinal approach, which I found inadequate and inconvenient later in my career as I've seen things from a more involute perspective but with less experience with the crafts. The advantage was that I find it easy to teach and learn about topics, but I feel very ineffective at routine tasks. I am unaware of how tangible it is at biology courses. I am really fascinated by biological studies, my physics- and math-centered knowledge really seems trivial compared to the complexities of biology. :)
Adrián Gugyin if you've ever had questions to do with life, biology is the root of that topic. It combines chemistry and physics to make life, which you would expect to be impossibly complex, but which can actually be divided rather well, especially if you include the full historical state of science, the journey the knowledge takes from the first concepts to the most concrete evidence is pretty well recorded with biology and with modern insights, we can look at historical things and understand them in a new light.
Did you know there is a theory as to how cities form (or used to form) environments perfect for cross-species infection? Because the original use of cities was trade, many many animals and people would be in close proximity with regular contact between multiple species. It's not often a disease evolved for cows or chickens becomes human compatible, but it only has to happen once and then spread to other humans, and it's an established disease. I can say I've still got my biology textbooks from my classes 2 years ago, and they're still fun to flick through, there are so many great explanations for how and why biology works. It's got so much to offer, and it's incredible the things that some people just seem to be completely unaware of (like nutrient limitations of plant growth. Climate change deniers often push that CO2 is good for plant growth, as it is a key ingredient in photosynthesis. However, photosynthesis only produces glucose, an energy rich nonosaccharide (simple sugar) and cells are made from many components, including DNA. The molecules of DNA are rich in nitrogen (the A-T C-G bits are called nitrogenous bases) and so replicating cells (therefore making more plant) requires more than just extra sugar! Not to mention plants already use up water in the same reaction in rather large quantities, increasing just sugar production could help drain ground water and lead to drought if unmediated. Sorry, I got carried away there, kinda get a bit caught up when someone shows interest. It's great chatting about the future of biotechnologies though, like genetic engineering and our path in natural selection... So many possibilities... So many discussions!
Awesomeness inside each of us.
I've got down syndrome
Feeling lucky to be alive at a time when we can know of the goings on of such small components that make life what it is, and to have such a good understanding of nearly all of the little steps and processes that happen along the way.
Haven't seen this video in years... it still blows my mind.
Can't get enough of these animations. It's mind blowing and indeed an incentive to work in science (or study biology in my case :) )
The pay for a lot of scientific jobs is way too low.
@@nccamsc And it only gets lower with the decline of discovery or innovation. Can't wait for some dude to ignite a market for designer bioweapons. Surely nothing can go wrong!

@@francescosorce5189 So you would rather have more people who think an explosion and randomness created all of this? Your brain has no doubt already told you that this is the result of an intelligence. If not then you need a refund.
Absolutely the best quick graphical overview of molecular/DNA processes I have ever seen. I'm going to see if I can find this guy in an hour long presentation SOMEwhere, because I'm sure it will be mind-blowingly cool to look at AND to learn from ...
I saw a few of these videos years ago in my cellular and molecular biology class in high school. I still think that was one of the most interesting and informative classes I've ever taken. I'm still blown away by these tiny machines.
If that is going on inside me, even if it's at a different time rate I am scared to move too suddenly or listen to loud music for fear they will fall off the strand or loose track counting and leave something off or add something new.
I think I'll start meditating in silence inside a Faraday cage. Give all those little cartoon characters a chance to work without distractions. Then again maybe they like a little walking music to pass the time.
On that scale electrimagnetic interactions are so strong compared to gravity or you acceleration when you are moving, that there is nothing to worry about!
hahaha. love this comment. Dont worry. Those motor proteins will not fall off. They only walk in one direction too. So in each direction (forward and backward), there are different motor proteins. They are guided by the charge (+ and -) of the 'strand' (which is technically called microtubule). They only walk when they have to carry something (a vesicle/ protein).
1.618033 proof of Allah CC, they go where shold they go, all proteine moves consiciously as if they have brains. proteins are like workers in factory. of course, this control in dark mini space(cell) due to Allah ...
It is a funny thought but actually you should have such concern in other areas. The thing we consume and breathe in pollute this incredible machinery. If you think about antibiotics being able to get everywhere in the body, that speaks to the permeability of the biochemistry. You can imagine what smoking does. Both pot and cigarettes. Eating very heat treated foods can introduce molecules of an unfortunate shape that breaks the machinery. And of course infectious diseases, particularly viruses can do massive damage. A cellphone call on the head will do damage as well.
We should eliminate all public contact surfaces like credit card keyboards and door handles. Office coffee machines and day car disease hub behavior. With a few smart steps we can eliminate all infectious diseases.
Gosh I really would love to hear the long version and really get to hear what all those different parts were.
I've enjoyed this one like a hundred times. It gives me goosebumps EVERY time: ua-cam.com/video/FzcTgrxMzZk/v-deo.html
No machine or computer or electronic device will be as complex and efficient as a single cell .... So fascinating .... As an engineer watching this was a truly humbling experience I can attest our technology is just 1/1000 times complex as nature's smallest machines... unbelievable
A miracle of evolution ( sarcasm intended). I marvel at our God when I think of what is beyond the telescope as well as what is beyond the microscope, all so sophistically and beautifully designed at every level. 😃
@@doctortabby yes. It’s clear who created all this, it’s so obvious that it’s not some natural processes of Elovution, where simpler molecules become more and more complex, but that all this complex DNA which looks like spaghetti, is actually created by the Holy creator - the Spaghetti Monster. The DNA itself represents spaghetti. The “balls” that hold the DNA into chromosomes represent meat-balls. All the planets orbiting the sun have the shape of meat-ball. If you look at Milky-way it looks like someone threw sauce (probably spaghetti sauce) into the universe. Isn’t that enough evidence that this is all work of the Spaghetti monster?

Oh my god. This is the guy who made the Animations. A master work !
Kids today are so lucky to be able to see animations of biology. Back when I was learning biology and anatomy (pre-internet), animation existed but it was not so widespread nor accessible so as a visual thinker, I would make a film of the process in my head to help me remember what I learned. In anatomy, we were taught to imagine ourselves as a very small human strolling within the human body. For our final tests, which were oral exams, our professors would name a part of the body and we had to describe what was above, below, to the left, and to the right of us. Since I originally wanted to be an artist this wasn't so hard for me but I bet it was difficult for others.
only 10 minutes for this genius of a man? he at least deserved an hour of TED and a Netflix special
Amazing. we need many more of these mechanical, to-scale animations of what life is made out of
this is fucking extraordinary. biology is so fascinating, i hope i'm alive when we have the computers and microscopic tech to show this stuff on screens or in glasses or in hologram form. technology is so exciting.
i know right, it's incredible
I hope I will be still alive, when based on this tech humanity will create entirely new species.
Nope, we haven't. When was the last time you saw an animal with it's DNA created from scratch?
And to think that this is what happens IN OUR BODIES
roald dahl it is great that we are now able to visualise these things in action.
Its so cool that these discoveries are super new.. and yet I get to learn about them in class. Especially since they're so intuitive and easy to learn. Absolutely incredible
Absolutely stunning. I am already impressed in front of cells movement. But at a molecular level, the molecules movement is unbelievable. What chemical interaction brings that behaviour ? Also the chemical orchestration to get a mecanism able to complete the wonderfully complex tasks involved in DNA copy or cells division, is mind blowing !
It really is. But then imagining a million years is mind blowing, let alone imagining the first 2.5 billion (2500 million) years of life on this planet which was just single-cellular evolution that tiny increment by tiny increment made these cellular functions.
Damn. That really is mind blowing.
Its amazing that i have access to this information
True that brother
Amazing! We don't appreciate enough people who discover these incredible scientific information!
My god... Unbelievable... I am just spell bound.. speechless.
Thank You Drew Berry (and All) for this thrilling peek into our workings on the tiny side. We may know about this and yet seeing (even representations) makes it all more real ... so much activity ... so many different interactions ... makes me step back and feel Awed by just the physical aspect ... in a way I've not been before. I hope there are many more of these animations
That was an intersting wrap up. I had to relisten to it a couple of times, to hear what he was saying...in relation to the presentation. If these kinds of accurate illistrations were in education institutions now, it would really help people understand the bigger picture.
This was real interesting. We should hear from Drew Berry more
I agree. Her insight would be most helpful here.
Re:-Some propose that Numbers 5:11-31 refers to God causing an abortion. The 2011 edition of the NIV mistakenly states that the drink will cause miscarriage in Numbers 5:21-22, 27. However, this is not what the passage is talking about. Pregnancy is nowhere mentioned, or even hinted at, in the text. The only thing that even sounds like pregnancy is the guilty wife’s stomach becoming bloated, but even in that instance, it has nothing to do with pregnancy. Further, the passage does not say that drinking the concoction would cause an abortion/miscarriage. While drinking a poisonous mixture of ingredients could very well cause a miscarriage, that is not what this text is speaking of.
yo lets give a quick shoutout to drew barrymore
Hoping more things like that to watch. Thanks for show us those incredible things
8:03 this the little walking things remind me of minecraft moving contraptions, I REALLY want to see someone make an acurate cell in minecraft now. It would probably take a supercomputer thought
crazy, the dna splitter almost resembles a robot just assembling a car
You can almost see "YASKAWA"
exactly. It is so strange that these things resemble such a mechanical way. It almost looks alien, the DNA splitter, not the little creatures. The DNA splitter is so alien to me, the way it does it is like a computer. How could molecules over time simply just bound together in such a way? Is the universe itself a living being?
@@SpacePonder Evolution solves problems like that.
"How is this possible though? Is it just me or do I see some form of low consciousness with the molecular DNA machines?" The Animations make it seem that way maybe but it is just as conscious as a clockwork.
The core question is: who made this robot?
I think that was the quickest 9 minutes ever. I could listen and watch this for ages.

This is incredible. Great work from Drew!
Wow this crazy cool. Thanks for bringing such unsee-able interactions to life via your animations.
What blows my mind is that the machines act as though they have a conscience and purpose.
You could say that about actual machines, too. This is because machines are built by someone that has given it a purpose.

@@samitsme8910 Nah, it all came out of nothing by a mere chance. :D
@@samitsme8910 Both of these responses are wrong. Even if God does exist in some form and is responsible for life, it is no longer in question that we are evolved, and evolution isn't random. If God is our architect, he was wise enough to understand that a system built from the bottom up is much more precise than one constructed from the top down, and he allowed the particulars to develop on their own after getting the basic machinery of life going. Believing in God doesn't have to mean rejecting the most well-supported scientific ideas. I don't believe God exists, but if you do, why not interpret all this as us seeking to understand a little more about HOW God did it? Surely we need not limit ourselves to what our Bronze Age ancestors thought, right? It's no insult to God if they got some things wrong. I hope our descendants don't limit themselves to our way of thinking, considering that they'll know so much more about themselves and the universe than we do.

Tim Lazenby It’s almost like DMT shifts your perspective deeper inside yourself to the point you actually can see all this happening. I totally get you on that one
480p on a video about beautiful animations? really?
seconded
spoiled brats
Animation is about movement which has nothing to do with the quality of the image and everything to do with motion and the number of frames. So yes "really"
Seriously, I saw God's hand tweaking "us" in his heavenly laboratory.
@@lambmaster27 What an unbelievably stupid statement. Most classic animation during the golden age of cartoons is 12 frames per second, only a minority of shots were done in 24fps because it cost so much more (often animators had to draw every image themselves, because they couldn't rely on assistants to do it right). Now, anime gets by on even less much of the time. Stop motion is often on 2's or 3's (12fps/8fps respectively).
Think about how much more work it takes to make CGI characters for a 4K screen, where the shadow on the edge of a pore is visible. Someone has to make that. I wish quality of the image meant nothing. I wouldn't have to spend my nights tweaking the normal map on a character's face to get the depth of the wrinkles just right. Or spend hours painting 8k texture maps.
My man over here changing the way we see the world, more than we even realize and we barely even noticed...smooth, very smooth Mr Berry. We see you dude. Keep pushing, you guys are rockstars at this stuff. We need you and are gunna more and more over time for the fact there’s a lot of people sort of “waking up” if you will and will need your answers to the tough, deep questions from you and your colleagues to keep us going. Your knowledge is a huge part of the path to complete wholistic self awareness that we will all inevitably seek. This is beautiful. I’m impressed at the drive to continue searching for that next clue. Well done, you guys are rockstars...✌🏼🙏🏼✌🏼
I wish this were much longer. I need to know more about this
When TED was still amazing
Was?
What an awesome representation. I hope I never meet the people who gave this video a thumbs down.
they have a tendency to wear red hats these days
Well, sad this got political
Some people use scripts that automatically thumb-down any videos they watch. This is used to prevent UA-cam from giving recommendations based on watch history.
This was superb.
More of this please
this is So amazing to understand How is Giant Machine working inside of us and we are not even aware of it!
AMAZING! I love how he turned his complaint about learning molecular biology into positive energy that eventually created a presentation like this!!!! I'm such a visual learner. Now I think I'll go and try and build a model of some kind. What do I use? wood? clay? Can I use a some kind of toy motor to simulate the movement of the strand? So EXCITING!!!!
A very brief - but wonderful discussion of living, imaginative science.
Amazing!!! Thank you for what you do!
It feels strange hearing people laughing in the background while I'm watching it with pure admiration
when we talk about science it means physics and biology. I am so glad to study biology alongside physics
It`s just amazing! I haven`t more words...
I am in awe, this is spectacular work! This is the science humanity needs
They’re so cute bee bopping around
Mind=Blown
LCARS43278 humbling ☺️
Absolutely astounding. Thank you.
I adore learning about and seeing the microscopic world especially microbiology. Biology is my favorite subject of study in general as it has been for the last 13 years starting when I was 21. I'm going to have to rewatch this lots of times and save it. Thanks TED. It's mind blowing that living organisms literally have DNA carriers walking across those tension strings they looked like alien creatures but they're not.
Oh my god, I'm made up of billions of slime block machines..
All I know is the machines are programmed in C++.
No wonder it's spaghetti code!
More like C++ G++ A++ T++
best nerdy response ever :)

Assembly...??
Hermosa presentación y una explicación genial, aún más por el vocabulario que ha usado a un nivel donde se puede entender por un gran público. Digno de elogio la representación
Best Biology Ted Talk EVER!
Think, none of these structures are conscious or aware, but they all come together to create life. I’d love to see one of these animations on the inner workings on our brain.
INCREDIBLE COMPUTER PROGRAMMERS!!
Drew Berry…. More!!!!!! Please. 🙏Thank you
Its so mind blowing its almost hard to believe.
Astonishingly great animations! I wish you could slow all this stuff down and explain it a bit more slowly-just looking at the individual frames with pointers and explain what everything is and what it is doing-it's also incredibly helpful to superimpose the animation over real cells and structures so that we can visualize our own actual cells and molecules doing that stuff . . .
This stuff cannot exist just for a TED talk. is there a channel where this stuff is being used for actual material about microbiology?
