FEEDING A GROWING CITY. “These studies suggest a mechanism by which the tumor-derived macroenvironment can be recycled as alternative fuel sources for rapidly proliferating cells.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-018-0271-8?fbclid=IwAR01C2Z4J5lxVYDLhxIb9dPb3fhNSZSxwimZvhHaJ4n3-nVPpkt2PNqoukk View in LinkedIn

EXAPTATION. “The tinkering principle, proposed more than three decades ago by Jacob (1977) who stated that “evolution tinkers together contraptions and novelties come from previously unseen associations of already available material”. https://lnkd.in/dJ8dUGRd View in LinkedIn

THE SIMPLEST ATOM. “The fundamental building blocks of the proton—quarks and gluons—have been known for decades. However, we still have an incomplete theoretical and experimental understanding of how these particles and their dynamics give rise to the quantum bound state of the proton and its physical properties, such as its spin.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

THE OTHER PARTS. “The asymmetry of antimatter in the proton.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

HIGH ENERGY PROTONS. “Free protons occur occasionally on Earth: thunderstorms can produce protons with energies of up to several tens of MeV.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

PARTS OF PROTONS. “Protons are composite particles composed of three valence quarks: two up quarks of charge +2/3 e and one down quark of charge −1/3 e. The rest masses of quarks contribute only about 1% of a proton's mass. The remainder of a proton's mass is due to quantum chromodynamics binding energy, which includes the kinetic energy of the quarks and the energy of the gluon fields that bind the quarks together.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

“PROTONS, together with electrically neutral particles called neutrons, make up all atomic nuclei except for the hydrogen nucleus (which consists of a single proton). Every nucleus of a given chemical element has the same number of protons. This number defines the atomic number of an element and determines the position of the element in the periodic table.”" " https://lnkd.in/e9rkP5x5 View in LinkedIn

PROTON INNARDS. “The structure of the proton is a prototypical example of a strongly coupled and correlated system with quarks and gluons interacting according to quantum chromodynamics (QCD).” View in LinkedIn

I must have taken this shot fifty times but simply cannot resist it when I see it. Girona cathedral at its best. View in LinkedIn

POWERFUL IMAGES. “It has long been claimed that imagery can have unique, if not profound, effects in physiological activity and health. With few exceptions, most of these observations have been ignored by mainstream medicine and psychology.” (Chapter 2). https://lnkd.in/dfMNaXbV View in LinkedIn
