Ira Pastor, ideaXme longevity and aging ambassador and founder of Bioquark interviews Professor Irena Cosic, Emeritus Professor, RMIT University, Melbourne Australia and Director AMALNA Consulting.
Ira Pastor comments:
Over the last few shows as we’ve spent time journeying along the biologic-architecture of life and aging, we’ve spent most of our time somewhere between the organism as a whole, its physiological networks and process, and the world of the cell and its various macromolecules – proteins, nucleic acids, and the respective metabolic architecture of genes and gene regulatory networks.
However, borrowing a line from Dr. Craig Venter, “We humans are not giant amoeba.”
The Complexity of the Human Body
The human body is much more complex than that. The average human body consists of in the range of 30-50 trillion cells, each one of those cells containing 25,000 protein coding genes, and each cell executes hundreds of thousands of biochemical reactions per day.
For the most part of life, from the point we are first conceived, the processes of life, ontogenesis, development, growth, metabolism, repair, regeneration, etc., work close to perfectly.
The big unanswered question is: how? Most thought leaders agree that it’s not solely about randomness.
Professor Irena Cosic
Today’s guest, who is going to take us further along this theme and into some research areas we don’t often hear too much about in the traditional biopharma space, is Professor Irena Cosic.
Professor Cosic is Emeritus Professor, College of Science, Engineering and Health, at RMIT University in Melbourne Australia. She is the creator of the Resonant Recognition Model (RRM) of macromolecular interactions which proposes that protein and other macromolecular interactions are based on highly specific resonant electromagnetic energy transfer, and has opened up a whole new realm for understanding biologic processes and, potentially, interfering and modulating them.
With a BS, MS, and PhD in Biomedical Engineering, University of Belgrade, Professor Cosic currently serves as the Deputy Pro Vice chancellor of Science, Engineering and Health at RMIT. For the last few decades she has lectured and consulted extensively on subjects as diverse as molecular bioelectronics, bioelectromagnetism, molecular modeling, protein engineering, biophysics, biomedical engineering, bioinformatics, biomedical instrumentation, and signal processing.
She also runs a consulting firm for biotech companies called AMALNA Consulting.
She’s published extensively over the years, and also serves as a referee for a number of international journals including International Journal of Theoretical Biology, Protein Engineering and APSM. She is also involved in the initiation of the new Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Tissue Cellular and Molecular Engineering Journal.
Today we will hear from Dr. Cosic:
About her background: how she got interested in science, how she got interested in bioengineering, and eventually what led her into the cutting-edge field of bioscience.
About the Resonant Recognition Model (RRM) and applications of it in health and aging. Her thoughts in the area of electroceutical therapeutics and her thoughts in the area of quantum biology and the ELM connection.
