Michael Levin: The electrical blueprints that orchestrate life | TED
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2021
- DNA isn't the only builder in the biological world -- there's also a mysterious bioelectric layer directing cells to work together to grow organs, systems and bodies, says biologist Michael Levin. Sharing unforgettable and groundbreaking footage of two-headed worms, he introduces us to xenobots -- the world's first living robots, created in his lab by cracking the electrical code of cells -- and discusses what this discovery may mean for the future of medicine, the environment and even life itself. (This conversation, hosted by TED's Chris Anderson, was recorded June 2020.)

This is literally the most incredible piece of scientific information I've seen in a decade and it barely gets noticed on UA-cam.
Yeah, it really makes utterly no sense. Why would this go intentionally ignored, when TED Talks are known to be/cause world wide traction and attention.
Something this significant to biology and human well-being, ignored, is a clear demonstration that something is definitely wrong with mainstream medicinal science.
I for one had always been curious about electricity and its relationship with biological life, since it never really made sense that our human genome alone, as hardware, could build a body without some level of intelligent interaction.
Glad we finally get some evidence of this.
That's what I keep telling people! Lol I swear most people just want to assume we already know everything, and dismiss anyone who thinks differently
This is going to fundamentally change the way we understand biology I'm so happy, but then I try to share with people and they don't believe me or don't comprehend what I'm saying and I remember that most people are completely unconcerned with two headed flat worms.
Censored in fact, wherever it actually gets discussed. It's disruptive tech: big pharma doesn't want people to know they can heal themselves by electrical means.
This is TED
This man just said more in 20 minutes than most people say in their entire lives.
Hey, everybody, look up Michael Levin and his team on UA-cam where you’ll find quite a few of his presentations. Really worth it to listen to 2 or 3 of them.
He also is quoted in quite a few scientific journals and magazines. He and his group publish tons of research.
The beauty of his work is that it takes a concept that has been written about by Rupert Sheldrake, Ervin Lazlo and so on and puts it in a language that many scientists can relate into. He must have written a lot of his own new vocabulary to penetrate scientists' brains. It is wonderful to see him discuss bioelectric fields and so on using technical jargon.
This guy and the team he’s working with are on a 1 way track to a Nobel prize. Fuckin incredible
This is my favorite ted talk by far, and that's a high bar. Absolutely love to think about the fact that when we invented digital computers and the internet we were subconsciously copying what our bodies already do as animals to transmit information across tissues.
I hope Mr. Levin and team will win the Nobel for this.
If anyone wins anything it should be the physicist Barbara Brennan. She wrote the book Hands of Light and published it in 1987 with many illustrations of what we all look like as electrical energy fields. This isn't hard. We all consist of 7 billion billion billion atoms, each atom an electrical energy field.
@@magentapurple8823 you meant the spiritual healer Barbara Brennan who describes the auras and chakras in her book and it only may seems like she was on it, like any other ancient books of JeSUS predicting the Zuckerberg lizard man theory. Don't misguide people with some failed spiritual wizards that seemingly predicted this long time ago
Been at this ish for millennia... Still can't beat nature...
The reason why it barely gets noticed is because there's nothing amazing about it. The fact is, DNA IS the builder of all things because it is the DNA which directed the 'building' of basic cell structures which, in turn, are capable of 'directing' further growth. In addition, it is widely accepted and verified that the DNA and/or RNA DOES contain the coding which tells a cell when/where to grow different types of cells, and when to stop that growth. In addition, this study above is NOT definitive or conclusive.
@@djbenje4019 the thing that’s remarkable is that the structures dictated by DNA and the transcriptional landscape of cells are the base layer that higher dimensional patterns originate from and propagate through.
It may not be anything special to you but it’s a really good way of looking towards a new paradigm of biology.
This could soon be a Nobel Prize awardee.
Really hope so. My cute double-headed planarians in the video should be overjoyed as well. Go Mike! Go Science! (Thanks for the credits, Mike!)
@@pureenergy4578 While all you said is very much valid, we are missing the point here: electricity was observed (or discovered if you will) thousands of years ago, yet the ability to design circuits with intentional functionality only happened less than a hundred years ago, which led to the information revolution of the 20th century.
So knowing something exists is really not the point. Controlling it is the actual exciting part of Mike's work.
@@shahinrab see Robert Becker and Gary Selden, "The Body Electric" 1985, where very similar work was done as what is described in this video, so not so ground breaking, even though it's new to you.
@@Ge1Ri4 OK good to know. Will check it out
@@Ge1Ri4 Read a short summary of it. Seems intriguing. Thanks for the suggestions.
Though it seems more of a philosophy of science book. You might be right in saying the idea is not new. In my opinion, it is less important who came up with the idea first than who actually did it the first time.
For many centuries people prophecized one day humans would fly. That alone, though interesting on its own, is less exciting than actually figuring out the aerodynamics of the wings and the design of a motor that will make the prediction come true.
Another example: Quantum computing. The theory has existed for half a century for a Qubit. But actually making one took a lot of engineering problem solving that is not less valuable than the original theory.
So let's appreciate these guys' work a bit more as they deserve.
The guest had more answers than the interviewer had questions.
The thing is, most people are not even ready to hear about this guy's discoveries. His words have so much information packed in them, that most individuals don't realize the implications involved.
@@johnnyjericho8472 No sir, it's not ok.
These are not discoveries; these are fantasies and pipe dreams. He has no data or experiments to back up what he is saying, and it is not consistent with known science. Sure, there's lots of information all the words of science fiction books, but that doesn't make the implications true.
The questions were on the opposite end of sensible
Another Oppenheimer moment?
@@tristanbrandt3886 Yes in a way but not exactly.
Immense gigantic step forward in the understanding of life. The consequences for biomedicine and future generations are possibly immense
It is actually a rediscovery. Something people do not understand commonly is that knowledge and technology does not require an industrial base nor do they leave a fossil imprint.
This reminds me of the doctor in the 1930s that thought he could kill cancer using a similar technique. Can't remember his name.
The sad part is this is nothing new. People have been talking about it since early 1900s. It's time to vindicate all those scientists the scientific materialists ignored and derided in favor of a biochemical approach that led to utter dependency on pharmaceuticals.
@@DJ-Illuminate Royal Rife
Yeah good luck. It'll be exploited and used to harm and control. Apparently yall don't know how they use "the science".
This is one of the most amazing discoveries in science. There should be SO much more buzz about it!
These are not discoveries; these are fantasies and pipe dreams. He has no data or experiments to back up what he is saying, and it is not consistent with known science.
'Fer sure, and if Francis Crick was awarded the Nobel Prize for discovering DNA, the basis for heredity, then how should Levin deserve any less?
... oh alright... This is the first thing in a looong time that really just turned my world upside down. Thank you T E D
Why I think this video is an April fool prank:
The video was released on 1st April.
The video format of one-on-one conversation deviates from conventional public talk given to huge audience.
Double headed planaria may be due to natural mutation as we see double headed creatures all the time in nature. Same argument can be said about the image shown of tadpole with extra limb.
The video of xenobot autonomously moving in tubes can be achieved by changing fluid flow direction or pressure.
No reference to any published paper in scientific journal is provided
The achievements claimed of this magnitude should have created public mania with all media discussing this breakthrough just like with the first image of black hole.
@@AbhishekVerma-xw3lz Nah Mike Levin is a big name in biomedical science, media doesn't seem that interested for some reason
Me too.
@@AbhishekVerma-xw3lz NO. There's many other videos of him. See also his lab page.
Its actually a rediscovery. People have been talking about it for decades. The problem is can you find that intelligent code, how its created/stored? I afraid he would never find it since that life force (consciousness as a part of it) is non-physical. So unless science make a paradigm shift, it will forever stuck there.
How can Levin´s work not be on the front page of all news outlets, or at least on all biology journals???????????? I keep meeting biologists and medical doctors who have never heard of his work. How is this possible? There is no doubt that this work is worth a nobel prize, and that still wouldn´t be enough to capture how groundbreaking these discoveries actually are. Can´t believe his work has been out for so long and yet remains largely unnoticed....
I didn't understand why and how did this guy keep a straight face while discussing such interesting magical and crazy things!! Wowowow! Amazing!!
He’s been researching it for a very long time.
We ARE magical. The physicist Kenneth Ford wrote the book THE QUANTUM WORLD. He wrote "magically bursting forth are quarks spinning billions of times a second as 3 points of light forming protons and neutrons." Of course these are atoms which are electrical energy fields. Somewhere a long the way, the theory of biology came along because people could not understand quantum physics which says we are intense, highly detailed holograms being precisely created every moment. Energy is our existence, otherwise electricity would not exist and neither would we. Energy spins and pulsates and waves and vibrates constantly. Therefore, creation is constant. In this book can be found a graph of simultaneous time.
In the book HANDS OF LIGHT written by the physicist Barbara Brennan can be seen many pictures of what we look like as eternal holograms and eternal electrical energy field beings.
He seems pretty excited

@@AbhishekVerma-xw3lz it was recorded in June though
I've never been this mindblown my whole life
Have you read "The Body Electric"? (see my comment above)
Just when I thought epigenetics is a game changing field I stumbled upon this TED talk. Excited for the applications of bioelectricity specially in chronic delibitating diseases.
I wonder if he was finally able to proceed with the next step. Can't wait to see more of his work. Thank you TED for sharing.
Can I ask, how are the electric fields generated? If not encoded in the genes, where is the information stored that generates the fields?
Not only it knows what was missing and what needs to be reconstructed but also knows when to stop the reconstruction.
What a time to be alive. As someone who read "The Selfish Gene" back in the time, I'd love to see Richard Dawkins discuss some more details with Michael Levin. This new way sounds like going from programming in machine language to grabbing a suitable off-the-shelf framework, at least once we deciphered the phenomenon comletely. If I had to choose again, I'd go into biotech rather than computer science.
Would love to see the two of them discuss this stuff, and many other things as well
Check out Rupert Sheldrake and his 'morphogenetic fields', a term also used by Levin in this video.
And Michael Levin @ 18:56 : "Biology has been intelligently solving problems, long before brains came on the scene"
- is the first thing that I would put in front of Richard Dawkins.
I will pay to watch Levin and Dawkins debate. AND the deafening sound of crickets that will surely come from Dawkins corner... hahaha
I’d have to say that I wouldn’t choose Richard Dawkins as a person to intelligently brainstorm with Michael. Richard is old school and very opinionated, and it is outside his knowledge level.
@@philosophicaltool5469 Hardly. He's just using a _very_ different meaning of "intelligent". It's a relatively simple feedback system, one that's all over biology in fact - including every individual cell's development and growth.
What would Levin and Dawkins debate about? You need some subject matter to debate first. This shows greater insight into how multi-cellular organisms organise themselves... but we've known almost identical systems work on both the intra-cellular and organism-environment levels, and it has absolutely no bearing on how genetics or inheritance work. It is another avenue for evolution, sure... but again, nothing new. We've known for quite a while now that the surrounding machinery is just as important as DNA for cell development - you can't just put sheep DNA into an iguana egg and expect it to magically grow up as a sheep. The recipe is worthless if you don't have the right kind of oven. Heck, Dawkins himself frequently reiterates that in his books, so I'm not sure why you're assuming he would be dumbfounded :)
@@LuaanTi I don't think you understand the implications here, or do but chose to brush over it with "it's an other avenue for evolution".
Last time I checked, people and scientists like Dawkins, are still clinging to that old and dusty, outdated and plain false Darwinian theory.
And Dawkins is one that can very arrogantly act and speak as if all is well and good in his little land of Darwin's theory, yet he also is known to have admitted he finds it likely that life came here from outside earth.
Basically not just "kicking the problem of life's origin down the road, but into space"
An other epic 'reply', to which I referred with my comment about crickets, is where Dawkins is asked about a mutation that he knows, and could give and example of, that INCREASED the amount of information in the genome.
He can't. Because there isn't.
So yes, a new avenue for explaining evolution is dearly needed.
This is the paradigm shift that will give rise to science-fiction levels of biological engineering. Also, very well presented! Bravo
These books should have given rise to a spectacular world, but as you can see, no one writing here but me knows this:
He is no where near the first to say that we are electrical beings. Physicists call atoms electrical energy fields. We all consist of 7 billion billion billion atoms. There are pictures in the book HANDS OF LIGHT written by the physicist Barbara Brennan that show us as electrical energy field beings and holograms, which she wrote are eternal, electromagnetic, multidimensional and holographic patterns of imagery.

There is no paradigm shifts in this age of acute suppression.
This is not a paradigm shift; these are fantasies and pipe dreams. He has no data or experiments to back up what he is saying, and it is not consistent with known science. Seeing as how engineering relies on replicable science to predict outcomes, it's not going to enable the engineering of anything that works. But I suppose it might allow engineering of science fiction devices that don't work.
I can’t believe this has been here for a year and no one has talked to me at all about this subject. I haven’t seen it in the news. This is incredible!
Perhaps there is missing a convenient catchword.
That's because it's horse puckey.
I haven't seen such an og TED talk like video in many years! This turns a whole science on its head and opens soo many doors to unforeseen possibilities. Truly an idea worth spreading

I remember Rupert Sheldrake got pillioried for "morphological fields" a few decades ago.
I studied this in my school days that this organism can regenerate, but getting to know that how it regenerates and that too we can control is just amazing stuff.
The book HANDS OF LIGHT written by the physicist Barbara Brennan is more amazing. This book says we can't die because we are electrical energy field beings constantly being created.
Even without a technological application, we can direct our health using Imaging and envisioning, possibly with the aid of ancient techniques of focus. What do you think the placebo effect actually is using as a mechanism of operation?

This wont translate into anything remotely related to communicate with human cells but its interesting nonetheless and as far as eating cancer cells im doubtful about the efficiency since human immune system already does that exact same thing but we wouldnt have to be on immune supression medication with mutant frogs in our bodies.
This is hella puffed up about real human application most likely due to hubris, but theyre cool frogs anyway.
Shame humans dont have frog DNA or we might be able to chemically signal our cells to do this or that.

Dr.Michael Levin..amazing work..looking forward how this electric codes between cells will be cracked soon
Absolutely mind blowing. Would it be an exaggeration to say that this really changes “everything “that we understood about microbiology; particularly the rules of DNA and genes on cell development. Why wasn’t this on the 5 o’clock news on every news channel in the entire world when it was published. Thank you for bringing us the stuff that matters Ted Talk.
It isn't new information. We are, first and foremost, electrical beings. Dr. Becker wrote an amazing book on this and the history behind this. We've KNOWN about this. Big pharma is losing with chemical based medicine and ready to profit off of 'new technology' . That's how industry works. They exhaust all they can on one technology (while hiding other knowledge by censorship and discrediting scientists etc), then they suddenly announce 'new technology' and how it will benefit us (ie their pocketbooks). 😁
If it's on the 5 o'clock news on every news channel in the entire world then you can be absolutely certain that it is a lie.
Amazing. This is probably the most important discovery in this century. Nobel prize stuff
Absolutely astounding!
Wow! Very interesting! Being retired I have time to watch all kinds of different videos in math, physics, archaeology, etc.
I can tell you that the world we live is far more complex and weird than we can understand.
Rupert Sheldrake has been talking about this for years with his morphogenetic fields. He always says that DNA just codes for proteins, but that the assembly of proteins is guided by the morphogenetic fields.
Shamans have been talking about this for millennia also.
They're the bearers of culturally specific integrated symbol language structures for manipulation at a conscious level of multiple aspects of our being.
But for some reason people think they're just superstitious or charlatans.
Ego.
It's a thing.
Amazing, this is literally life changing information for humanity. So DNA is sort of like having a big instruction book of all the things you need to make an organism, and each cell gets that book but is only told to look up a specific page and build that part, and then the cell uses its resources to build that. But by manipulating the ion channels you essentially tell cells to lookup different pages that they don't usually work from. Instead of the old paradigm of thinking that you need to alter that book itself and redistribute it to the cells.
Wow, and backed with actuall expirements not just theories - amazing work!
It just shows how much more there is to learn and understand.
Absolutely powerful information thank you guys for sharing your findings, and your work it's absolutely powerful. I truly hope that from now on these discoveries are used for the medicinal purposes of helping humanity. And not just creating monsters to weaponize against man's kind animals or any intelligent species. So be it.
Absolutely Groundbreaking and Mind-blowing in the most literal sense.

@@AbhishekVerma-xw3lz April fool pranks are supposed to be funny, there's nothing funny about giving people false hope of a cure for cancer.
Or fix DNA damage in senescent cells to reduce cancer risks as well as overall inflammation.
@@UHFStation1 or look into Seyfried's work, the electrical issue is induced by a metabolic issue. The metabolism is the system that generates and manages ion channels and pumping.
Agree with other comments this is one of the most significant advances in our understanding of biology ever, and will very likely lead to developments we can barely imagine. Heard a podcast on flatworms a few months ago that emphasized one fact Dr. Levin mentioned in passing here, namely that planarians are immortal. The statement was that due to their incredible ability to regenerate a full organism from any fragment that one animal had been alive for 500 million years. Let that sink in. 🤩
Not a criticism of Mr Anderson at all, but his comment at the conclusion of the discussion exclaiming extraordinary is an understatement. The work of Michael Levin is so far beyond extraordinary; there are no words...
If I understand this concept, providing the language is understood it is theoretically possible to grow any creature in any configuration desired.
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing that research
I dated a girl who told me she accidentally cut off the end of her finger (probably in her 20s) and it took about 10 years, but fully grew back, fingernail and all. The key is, you can't sew it up...if you do, the wound heals over but you ruin the chance for it to begin regrowth, and it will stay a stump forever.
The part with the virtual evolution is phantastic but it nearly blew my mind.
OHHHH How could I just be hearing of this!!!!! Amazing!
My god, that's absolutely exciting!
So Rupert Sheldrake was not so wrong after all with his morphogenetic fields. Of course not in the core, in the sense that there is a kind of "invisible database" in the universe, where body forms are stored - but at least there are fields. :D
He is no where near the first to say that we are electrical beings. Physicists call atoms electrical energy fields. We all consist of 7 billion billion billion atoms. There are pictures in the book HANDS OF LIGHT written by the physicist Barbara Brennan that show us as electrical energy field beings and holograms, which she wrote are eternal, electromagnetic, multidimensional and holographic patterns of imagery.
The physicist Kenneth Ford wrote the book THE QUANTUM WORLD. He wrote "magically bursting forth are quarks spinning billions of times a second as 3 points of light forming protons and neutrons." Of course these are atoms which are electrical energy fields. Somewhere a long the way, the theory of biology came along because people could not understand quantum physics which says we are intense, highly detailed holograms being precisely created every moment. Energy is our existence, otherwise electricity would not exist and neither would we. Energy spins and pulsates and waves and vibrates constantly. Therefore, creation is constant. In this book can be found a graph of simultaneous time.
i was thinking the same thing ..
Anyone who witnessed the photographing of a torn leaf that showed a ghostly outline of the missing section along with the image of the remaining leaf would not be surprised by this talk.
This is so revolutionary!
This is Dr. Frankenstein at the cellular level. Not difficult to see how such technology could be used for malevolent intentions or simply misused with catastrophic results.
I’m a software developer and this legitimately creeps me out. Mutable global state.... THE HORROR!

I found out his funders at the Tuft University are DARPA (agency of the Dept of Defense) and Paul G. Allen (co-microsoft founder and best friends with bill gates).
I am a developer as well and I agree that this is amazing stuff, but you know as well as I know, that the 'bioelectric code and subroutines' he is talking about has nothing to do with binary language. He is giving a false impression that this somehow can be compared.
@@emmanuelpil UH OH!!!!!!
I do enjoy hearing these things from the people that did the homework. Amazing content! 🤯🤓
Absolutely stunning.
i cant process the huges changes that this research can make in the world.
Na, humans DNA dont even remotely behave like frogs, we dont metamorphise.
Closest we got is stem cells and people are already all over that :)
This wont translate into anything remotely related to communicate with human cells but its interesting nonetheless and as far as eating cancer cells im doubtful about the efficiency since human immune system already does that exact same thing but we wouldnt have to be on immune supression medication with mutant frogs in our bodies.
This is hella puffed up about real human application most likely to due hubris, but theyre cool frogs anyway.
Shame humans dont have frog DNA or we might be able to chemically signal our cells to do this or that.
This is on a DNA discovery level, wtf, why is nobody talking about this in mainstream news?
Revolutions in academia occur when board members expire or retire
Because you have to concentrate for more than 3 minutes to hear this and that is too long the mainstream media.
Mind Blowing research. Came from tny
Every time I watch this video it blows my mind!
Remarkable work. Thank You for sharing. What is missing is a comment on where the software at the cell level came from? Who wrote it that perfect? And the fact that every living creature type has its own software is mind blowing!
my understanding is that DNA is making the cells with the ability to interract in a complex and specific (species-specific) way. The rest is consequence of this interraction.
A simple analogy is game of life. Rules by which the squares interract (change state now to next time step, depending on surrounding squares's state) are very simple; could think of them as written in the dna of the square. When the inventor wrote those rules, he could not know what patterns those squares are going to form for different initial conditions. Complex behavior emerges out of simple rules.
No one wrote it. It evolved.
Could say, IT wrote it. Remarkably near to that are thou, tat tvam asi. Still wonder where the DMT Elves fit in.
@@JosephKanoThats a bold assertion, what evidence do you have that 'self organizing systems with increasing complexity' is a natural consequence of physics or chemistry?
The irreducible complexity argument is still learning how complex things are. Ha evos, trying to be smart whilst holding dearly to fantastic myths.
The coming discoveries in biology is going to be as epic as JWST rewriting the big bang theory.
@@leonniceday6807Did the program coding for 'game of life' take time and intelligence to design it? Plus its just an image, please dont compare cartoons to real life.
How can this not be Nobel prize winning science!
It just takes time because Nobel prizes are given based on scientific impact the research has. Currently, there still aren’t many people doing this (i would think because Michael Levin and his team’s work sounds like it may be super expensive) and we still need to see where this will go. I do think that this has major Nobel potential in the future though.
This is mind blowing.
This is really on a whole new level to understand biological creation.
Finally we realize that biology can not be explained solely by chemistry. Here comes physics and computer science departments to revolutionize biology. Great times.
Well said :-) Interdisciplinary research is the way forward.
Chemistry is the medium!
Electrical bioengineering!
Don't forget comparative anthropology and the contribution to be made by thousands of years of evolution and development of psychobiological technologies as one of the first emergent fields of Discovery for our kind of information processing organism.
Semiotics are important. Very important adjectives degrees of cultural, environmental, and psychological compatibility and appropriateness the symbol sets and coding language of interrelations that is being used.
Why I think this video is an April fool prank:
The video was released on 1st April.
The video format of one-on-one conversation deviates from conventional public talk given to huge audience.
Double headed planaria may be due to natural mutation as we see double headed creatures all the time in nature. Same argument can be said about the image shown of tadpole with extra limb.
The video of xenobot autonomously moving in tubes can be achieved by changing fluid flow direction or pressure.
No reference to any published paper in scientific journal is provided
The achievements claimed of this magnitude should have created public mania with all media discussing this breakthrough just like with the first image of black hole.
That's one small step for a Planaria worm, one giant leap for mankind! This is utterly astounding!
One small head.... lol 😂
