Michelangelo, ocular bulb, retina and the Creator.
We are reporting on the recent description published1 in this journal that describes the interesting perspective for previous descriptions2 of the fresco Creation of the Sun, Moon and Plants of the Michelangelo Bounarroti (1475-1564). However, we have a slightly different perspective, in relation to the optic nerves. According to this description1, the nerves would be represented by the heels/f...
متن کاملRelativity - The Theory of Infinitesimal Light - Clocks
In part 1 of this paper, newly identified logical errors in the derivations that yield Einstein’s Special and General Theories of Relativity are discussed. These errors are much more significant than those identified by Fock. The basic philosophy of science used as a foundation for these theories is identified. The philosophy of the privileged observer is detailed. Part 1 concludes with a brief...
متن کاملCellular clocks and light effects on man
In principle, there are two types of time regulation in humans as well as in other species: Cyclic time when the same phenomena occur with regular intervals, and linear time, when alterations occur along a straight line. Examples of the former are circadian and seasonal variations, while the latter time functions include periods of gestation, infancy, growth and adulthood, followed by senescenc...
متن کاملChondrocyte clocks make cartilage time-sensitive material.
Circadian rhythms mediated by both central and tissue-specific peripheral clocks allow for the synchronization of biological processes with diurnal cycles such as activity and rest. Disruption of these rhythms can be caused by altered sleep-awake patterns or by pathological conditions and can initiate or exacerbate human disease through mechanisms that are only partially understood. In this iss...
متن کاملZebrafish circadian clocks: cells that see light.
In the classical view of circadian clock organization, the daily rhythms of most organisms were thought to be regulated by a central, 'master' pacemaker, usually located within neural structures of the animal. However, with the results of experiments performed in zebrafish, mammalian cell lines and, more recently, mammalian tissues, this view has changed to one where clock organization is now s...
