Protein-Hype: Wie viel Eiweiß brauchen wir wirklich?

Protein ist plötzlich überall: im Pudding, im Brot und sogar in Chips. Doch wie viel Eiweiß braucht der Körper wirklich und wann sind High-Protein-Produkte sinnvoll? Wissenschaftsjournalist Eric Mayer erklärt, warum Protein zum großen Ernährungstrend geworden ist, worauf es bei der Wahl der Proteinquellen ankommt und warum „High Protein“ nicht automatisch gesund bedeutet. Zu Mayers neuen ZDF-Dokureihe „plan b: next BITE“ geht es hier: https://www.zdf.de/dokus/plan-b-next-bite-100 An den Sonntagen, 11. und 18. Oktober, jeweils um 15.30 Uhr wird die Dokureihe im ZDF gezeigt. Außerdem geht es in dieser Folge um die Frage: Warum mögen viele Menschen Glitzer?

Qu'y a t-il vraiment au delà de l'Univers observable ?

L’Univers est-il infini ? Possède-t-il une limite ? Et si oui, que pourrait-il exister au-delà de l’univers observable ? Ces questions comptent parmi les plus fascinantes de la cosmologie moderne. Dans cette vidéo, nous explorons ce que les observations astronomiques, la relativité générale et les modèles cosmologiques nous permettent réellement de comprendre sur la taille de l’Univers, son expansion et les limites de ce que nous pouvons observer.Nous verrons pourquoi l’univers observable ne représente qu’une partie de l’Univers, comment l’horizon cosmologique fixe une frontière à notre vision sans forcément marquer une véritable fin de l’espace, et ce que les scientifiques envisagent au-delà de cette limite. Univers infini, espace courbe, univers fini mais sans bord, inflation cosmique, multivers ou encore horizon des particules : autant d’hypothèses et de concepts qui permettent d’approcher cette immense énigme tout en distinguant ce qui relève des observations, des théories solides et des spéculations.Jusqu’où s’étend réellement l’Univers ? Peut-on un jour en voir les limites ? Existe-t-il quelque chose au-delà de l’univers observable ? À travers les découvertes de l’astrophysique et de la cosmologie, cette vidéo fait le point sur l’un des plus grands mystères de la science et sur les réponses que les chercheurs tentent d’apporter aujourd’hui.

ماهو الوعي؟ كيف يبني الدماغ إحساسك بأنك: أنت

ما هو الوعي؟ ولماذا نشعر أننا "نحن"؟ هل حرية الإرادة حقيقية أم مجرد إحساس يبنيه الدماغ؟ في هذه الحلقة الخاصة من سلسلة علوم الأعصاب وفلسفة العقل، نغوص في واحدة من أعقد الأسئلة في تاريخ الفكر الإنساني: كيف يبني الدماغ التجربة الواعية؟ نستعرض أهم نظريات الوعي المعاصرة، من النظرية الوظيفية (Functionalism) إلى نظرية مساحة العمل العالمية (Global Workspace Theory) عند ستانيسلاس ديهان، ونظرية الفكر من المرتبة الأعلى (Higher-Order Thought)، وصولًا إلى نظرية المعلومات المتكاملة (Integrated Information Theory – IIT) عند جوليو تونوني. نناقش الفرق بين "المشكلة السهلة" و"المشكلة الصعبة للوعي" كما طرحها ديفيد تشالمرز، وجذورها في ثنائية ديكارت بين العقل والجسد. ثم ننتقل إلى طرح أنيل سيث في كتاب Being You، حيث يرى أن الوعي ليس لغزًا ميتافيزيقيًا، بل عملية تنبؤية مستمرة؛ الدماغ يبني العالم عبر ما يسميه "الهلوسة المنضبطة" (Controlled Hallucination). نشرح ذلك عبر تجارب شهيرة مثل: الفستان الأزرق/الذهبي تجربة الغوريلا غير المرئية وهم اليد المطاطية تجربة Libet حول حرية الإرادة كما نتناول: العلاقة بين مستوى الوعي ومحتواه مؤشر التعقيد الاضطرابي (PCI) والتخدير هل الحيوانات تمتلك وعيًا؟ هل يمكن للذكاء الاصطناعي أن يكون واعيًا؟ ما هي الذات؟ وهل هي بناء إدراكي متعدد الطبقات؟ حلقة تجمع بين علم الأعصاب، الفلسفة، علم النفس الإدراكي، الإدراك التنبؤي (Predictive Processing)، وحرية الإرادة، لفهم كيف ينشأ الإحساس بالعالم… وبأنفسنا. الكتاب: Being you by Anil Seth

Why Did Ancient Humans Start Believing in Gods? 🌌🗿 | The Origins of Religion and the Divine | Boring History for Sleep

Long before temples, sacred texts, and organized religions, ancient humans were already trying to understand a mysterious and unpredictable world. Thunder, storms, disease, death, dreams, the changing seasons, and the movement of the sun and stars all raised questions that had no simple answers. This episode explores how early beliefs may have developed, from animism and ancestor traditions to the first known rituals and sacred places. Across prehistoric communities, people created stories to explain nature, connect with the dead, seek protection, and make sense of events beyond their control. When did humans begin imagining supernatural beings? Why did certain animals, mountains, rivers, and celestial bodies become sacred? And how did scattered spiritual ideas eventually grow into the complex religious traditions of the ancient world? Settle in and travel back to the earliest chapters of human history, where the boundary between nature, spirits, ancestors, and gods was only beginning to take shape.

The Art of Creative Process

Watch the full video: https://youtu.be/X_zhPu3xCd4 In this episode of The Science of Creativity, Keith Sawyer speaks with psychologist and artist Aaron Kozbelt about what really drives creative achievement. Challenging the idea that creativity starts with a brilliant idea, Kozbelt argues that innovation often emerges from restructuring the creative process itself. Drawing on research in visual art and music, he explores how artists develop over time, why some creators peak early while others improve across decades, and how training—especially in drawing—changes perception. The conversation also examines whether originality is overrated and why patience, iteration, and engagement with tradition may matter more than radical novelty. Key Takeaways • Creativity is less about isolated ideas and more about reshaping process. • Artists follow different developmental trajectories—some peak early, others gradually. • Drawing training enhances perceptual flexibility and attentional control. • Enduring creative work often builds deeply on tradition rather than chasing novelty. • Time and distance are powerful tools for evaluating creative work. About Dr. Aaron Kozbelt Dr. Aaron Kozbelt is a Professor of psychology at Brooklyn College, City University of New York. His research program, focusing on creativity and cognition in the arts, derives largely from his outside interests. In addition to his training in psychology, he has spent more than 20 years as a practicing visual artist, and his initial research forays grew directly out of his experiences as an artist. Kozbelt has also incorporated his long-standing interest in classical music into a line of archival research examining patterns of creativity over the lifespan of classical composers. More recently, he has started research on creative cognition, humor production and sexual selection, and metacognition and evaluation in creative problem solving.
