La curiosidad No mató al gato | Jorge Acosta | TEDxUSTLA


curiosity did not kill the passing cat

is that I had when I started

reflect on the phrase ask me

more curious that I know and probably

you also to know because I

I denied a name or his age does not want

know absolutely everything up to the most

minimum detail

I am talking with my wife

sunbathing suddenly a topic that we

to do the weekend she has to

know what we’re going to do on vacation

she has to know but because I love

because he does not want or health or else reveals that

this battle but the truth is that the

curiosity is part of nature

human we always want to know how

things work

So reality fascinates us

process

I think I know why but the question is

because we want to know why I said no

I’m just going to talk about my mother- in- law

I have to talk about when the

curiosity and if we talk about

when curiosity part undoubtedly

we would have to get to speak Daniel

true because that curiosity was what

had results ordinarily complex

but they motivate us to our nature

Well, I have to give a positive example of

curiosity how he always told me the

motor of all the science of medicine

it has been the curiosity to count example

for example extraordinary woman like

Marie Curie the first person that

received two Nobel prizes in physics and

chemistry or rediscover the radio glued

see what was their property of the

ordinary that was the breakthrough for the

medicine then having the radio he was

wonderful

currently this fourteenth with

Marie Curie died of aplastic anemia

product of radioactivity

in fact it does not aspire if the talk p

find the positive

then I said look I’m going to tell something

positive

my eldest daughter rosario who has four

years

the other day dad asked me

the skin has layers I said that I learned it

in ecology when I was in the

college of love like he said that

What happens is that the other day I got

a little village of skin or expert and followed

having fine then I think it has

extraordinary capable that every time

one gets the expert out of the skin is alex

Aguirre asked everyone says it looks

the blood helped him learn and

realize that the one who had

capable his curiosity about

interpretation that things gave him

then I’m 8 or the planet

talk asking me if indeed

curiosity did not kill the cat

As I told you, July was the time for

the law of science from the

antiquity to philosophers

many of them were scientific

we too were doctors

we must ask ourselves how it is that

we in a few hundred years pass

of a little more life expectancy

40 years old

six out of ten people in the year and

medium to less than 40 years old many do not

reached 5 years to have today a

Life expectancy over 70 80

years

the problem that we have today in the neighbor

without problems of the auto I will pay and not of the

game and how they have achieved we have achieved

good progress through curiosity

the curiosity because we could

ask ourselves what curiosity killed the

cat and I began to investigate

where will this have arisen without a doubt that

we always had in history called is

true that related to the mystical

religious and cures but the

first we could say there is

about medicine four thousand years ago

back found a paper or more than 20

meters long with all the crises

Inés of the procedures undoubtedly

also a lot of color actions if

attributions to the 12 but also with

things that were undoubtedly complex by

example to cure some diseases

They are using spider webs use

Vicente camel that might seem

disgusting but not all times

wrong

for example they used plants were

rich in themselves to be able to cure

wounds I did not know that the plants were

rich in without even knowing what

it was the end but if you had seen that

apply is a story in the wounds

I would say that for that there

also the other properties of the

super-level as they call it in the

science we have not realized that

we call the active principles that

they determine in some way the

positive functioning of this in the

body there is one that I love that has

what to do with chili and has a

molecule that is called capsaicin and

the capsaicin that runs the spicy on

chile that chili serves to treat the

neuropathic pain pain even

is currently being studied for

be able to treat some cancers only

the ancients use chili as

healing

besides a rich integrate with merkel

what costa rica

so there is progress that are

extraordinary Egyptians said thing

wonderful I am here for example a

prostheses that archaeologists

they found in the Egyptian culture a

true extraordinary protection that

we thought we had

invented only in the modern era but

I was not before

curiosity curiosity there is example

power not only to talk about the

very distant story as the truth that

there are extraordinary examples

google I want to tell you now these

people that probably you what

know are the scientists that are

They devoted to studying the acidity

bracelets a thing well done I had

because I got married time the consultation

happens from a patient who describes something

that you have probably passed

I feel a pain in the pit of my stomach

like it burns me and suddenly I feel

that I climbed on everything happens when I eat

empanadas and I do not know what good I just

diagnosing have ulcers or reflux

gastroesophageal and fish and the truth

everyone said good will

heralds the spicy social 313 much

that an ulcer is going to start

to study study study why

happened this they started taking biopsies

in mind that each time they were

a biopsy with the patient who had

a friend a bug an ear said

we believe that these bacteria are

those that produce the ulcers and all the

world you compete see how you are

it happens that a bacterium produces a

ulcer

if everyone knows that the stress that the

cybele for the one who has been his

antibiotic how do you think medicine

of them they believed so much finally that

this bacterium in which causes it

finally what they did was that what

who is a scientist when I have a

doubt applies the scientific method and

how they managed to get anyone

to arrive they took me a little bit of

bacteria and it will fight for you to wait

that since a while this

annoyance but no more than some

days my regret of the symptoms of

arrixaca and what happened

it was an antibiotic

incredibly healthy safe and why

because this bacterium that was baptized

as helicobacter pylori is called

helicobacter

because he has a spinning tail

like a real helicopter that

penetrates the mucosa and the barrier and settles

in the stomach it’s called pylori because

for the pilot and produces that acidity

see in this does not become a

more neutral environment producing

ammonia through one thing that is

call to hope and I ‘m

putting means on how much

it came with danger but why do I say

this because it is in the base that

allowed these two characters

barry marching and me and rock and roll and

warren will win the Nobel prize of

medicine the year 2005 when I was

studying the university and is

studying a room like this we

tell us that we all start to win in

what was the calendar because although

he committed somehow a

recklessness to the thread with does this

bacterium is so sure of the result

and I was so curious

I’m willing to take a risk and well no

he noticed it very much on the contrary he healed

this story is repeated throughout the

science during virtually all of its

existence and why because every time

that a scientist was faced with

the question of what to do to check if

I wanted to be watered and treated by our

authorities and so there are thousands of

houses or example for example giuseppe

batista after nobody knows him for

course but especially a photo jose

batista grassi was also engaged in

study the clubs clubs had or not the

lone worm without a doubt

health technology when youtube

also for a photo as I already tell you

but until then and the study the fairs

and if it is said that the biopsy

intestinal or eggs were found

had then had the theory that

they were admitted orally and that makes

typical when you have a doubt if you

swallowed the games of thénia yes and no 1

100 rock eggs and obviously had the

had after it was tried but it was the

that he demonstrated through this

practice that this measure has had that

way is so popular that all

scientists of that time played like a

Who was swallowing winery is quite

interesting and that it will be as a

kind of initiation let’s say in the

study of the subject but also

until we stopped after

do it but there are few there is another

scientific

for example foxman said he said look

What I want is to treat the heart

in the most direct way possible and not

give a medication a person from

orally or intravenously because it’s going to

reach all your organs and in others

organs can cause other problems

much more severe

so I’m trying to fix the

heart and other organ spoils

he wants to go straight to the heart and

as it does with a ktm with a probe

that I’m going to put in my arm

directly until it reaches the

heart but you are crazy as if

that happens to do that what does it got

talk to a nurse one day

he said look you have to help me

you give him especially I get to

the area in the general jar said how

it occurs to you better let’s make the landing

cool

no no I offer myself when finally

convinced the nurse are in the

standard and suddenly do not realize and

he himself puts the zone and nurse

I had to support him and help him and he advanced

tens of centimeters until you reach

heart and as if the basis for improvement

the radio room to take a

X-ray to see that effectively

there was the cassette in the heart

this that undoubtedly its moment provoked

that they would crash from the hospital where he was and

he was 13 years old only working in a

rural hospital a posture because no

they consider absolutely reckless but

years later received the Nobel what

considered the father of catheterization

area that allowed things like

empathy example that allows to save the

life to a patient because he managed to dilate

more heart than throughout the entire

history of science and of all the

history of medicine we always

we are going to meet with people who are not

they were afraid of curiosity and

face even themselves the power

move forward but we also have to

ask not only about the

enigmas that sp does not attract attention

in medicine or science but that

also on trips that travel more

entertaining more exciting than the

discover a new way to get to

the Indians a new way to be able

find new points and trying to

get to the Indian in the 14th century in

515 colon where he came to a continent

new america but today we have our

own trip to the Indian that is a

trip to space have been thinking

if tomorrow effectively

we can get to Mars

how long are we going to delay although it is already

something very very fast we are not going to get

before two years although good news

could wait two years but eye

how are you going to do it but for two

years being on a ferry

if you get an appendicitis how are you going to

operate with zero gravity or if suddenly in

some procedure has a bad

luck and it is invoiced how to do for

operate

considering that for the bones

can grow and so they can

get consolidate need the

gravity

the deeply interesting remains

that comes from the study of medicine

space

No doubt they will not increase that many

curious people want to be able to work for

to be able to solve those questions is yes

they are as abundant as people

and I could leave some for you

will reflect has been thinking how

deaf people do it to be able to think

what to think without words

conceptualize people who are zones

they have never heard a word they use

As an achievement, he has reflected on the game

it will migrate from north to south of

israel who has never known place like

the salmon returns to the place where he was born

or have they started to think how is it

We managed warehouse to store the

memories even in places that do not

I knew how it was that we had it as

for example when it is always us

happens and we feel an aroma that

remember something from roma to mote with

huesillo the aroma of warm bread

kneading that is not only the rich thing with

butter but tells me my mom and

my grandmother in Rome

even to firewood that one can feel in

Winter does not look interesting as it does

realize those memories we do not have

absolutely saved in the most

deep about going to see situations

difficult we are going to have problems

more than once in the case of curious

we are going to have some failure

we are going to have some difficulty but what

important is to realize that when

we are facing a question always the

answer will generate more questions

and although there are difficult situations and

we can have a failure

you have to remember what tomás told us

alva that when I was down to

invent the ampule in what he said is

that had been delayed like a thousand times and

some say he had 100

failed attempts the clear and categorical

I did not have 100 failed attempts

it was an invention that required feel that

is what it was hard for me to get where I

I wanted to arrive even though we have

difficult situations always the

questions are the ones that are going to join us

many times the answers are the ones

lopez one of the questions generates more

questions

insatiable curiosity we always go to

want to know more and I want to have with

a few hours that is the one of some

way it illuminated not only

he studied at the university but every

one of the topics in which I deal

to know more than a phrase of albert

einstein important what really

important is it never gets to be done

many questions

[Applause]
