Dude. Who's that chick at 34:11? She's just SUPER hot.

Love it, I wish I was there.

I sense voting bots and creationists. can smell their stench miles away.

An excellent video! I hope this is more funded since the ban has been lifted.

There is hope for stroke victims!

OMG!!! I'm researching all I can on the origins of Metazoa and multicellularity and that blastocyst looks exactly like a colonial flaggelate and the very early embryo looks like some of the Ediacaren fauna!!! Wow!!!

Thanks for posting Extant. As anyone can observe from this excellent lecture that the Pope and any other religious nuts opposed to embryonic stem cells have absolutely no knowledge of biology or what it is they are opposing in the name of their lunatic cults.

From Galileo to Darwin to today-religion continues to be the heavy anchor that drags and holds back science and human advancement. If Christians and muslims got their way we'd all be living in the dark ages again-burning witches/heretics.

When I search through your videos, youtube fucking cuts off the remaining parts of the title in the link. Could you place parts 1 2 3 4 5 etc in your video reservoir? I'd like to watch them in order, and favorite them accordingly. Thank you.

assume we give well funding for stem cellresearch for say 50 years, how much would it benefit humanity?, could it save a million lives at such a short time?

Americans get christmans lectures? I never knew that. Hope the royal sociity does something better this year than maths.

[RoadrunnerSSC]

Thanks a lot for this!

great video! I kept wanting to ask the guy "What causes the cells to differentiate!" and when people asked I was waiting for them to ask, then at the end he talked about how they weren't sure and I was like "Oh ok." That's cool. It's got me thinking about it now lol thanks for the great video

"great video! I kept wanting to ask the guy "What causes the cells to differentiate!""

There are some things biologists have found out though. Cells are organized according to a concentration of proteins. They can reckognize where they should be according to how big those concentrations are. This is called axis orientation if you care to look it up. The expression of genes, ad thereby the differentiation of cells, is probably linked to the axis orientation mechanisms.

Ban policy update:

Due to the actions of numerous repeat trolls, bans will now only be lifted on 4 month intervals, rather than 1 week intervals. Troll bans are set to be lifted on 12/15/07.

If you are worried that your comment will result in a ban, search through the already posted comments and see what caused others to be banned. Do not repeat their mistakes. If you exercise a minimal amount of tact, you will find that we are more than accommodating to both questions and valid criticisms.

It is due to videos of such great content and quality that I play YouTube rather than, say, socialize. =/

=p

[GreenDragon23]

Awesome stuff!

(Just like all the other videos you post)

:)

[oggjy]

i notice no creationists have taken your challenge yet extant hehe

[SecularOpinion]

great stuff!

[jufulu]

Awesome cool.

[Drewdood]

Oh no another 4+ hour lecture series! Damn you Extant for posting all this long stuff I wanna watch!

[k9lionheart]

[westphalianprinz]

Gosh, but none of this is gonna come from my country because it's run by a crazy man!
