Sen kendini hissediyor musun?
thousands of microscopic creatures
parmaklarımızda yaşayan binlerce
from the air ducts today.
of the 100 billion bacterial cells
100 milyar bakteri hücresinin
at your skin oils and replicating,
ve çoğalıyorlar,
the fecal bacteria
üstüne püsküren
you flushed a toilet,
in our water pipes
with your last shower.
üstüne püsküren bakterilere.
a microscopic high five
yüzümüzün hepsinde
that live on our faces,
squirming across your face
their gut contents onto your pores.
gözeneklerinize boşaltıyor.
arayışında mısınız?
how you feel in the future.
a bug in your house
solution for that,
of the microscopic life in our world now.
çoğunu ortadan kaldırmak için uğraşırız.
the best source of new technology
yeni teknolojinin en iyi kaynağını
human solutions to microbial problems,
insan çözümlerini ön plana çıkarıyordu
microbial solutions to human problems.
karşı mikrobik çözümlere ağırlık verecek.
with researchers
and the University of Colorado
araştırmacılarla
life that is nearest us,
ortaya çıkarmak için çalışıyorum
and boring environments,
ve sıkıcı çevrelerimizdir;
that we know very little
görülen o ki
çok az şey biliyoruz.
that's nearest us.
no scientist could tell you
hiçbir bilim insanı sana evinde
live in your home --
evinde- yaşayan
better than anywhere else.
ne olduğunu söyleyemezdi.
açığa çıkarmak için
life nearest us.
over 600 species of bugs
akarlara kadar her şey.
of bacteria and fungi
100 binin üzerinde
on our clothes or in our showers.
yaşayan daha binlercesi var.
of each of those bugs in our home.
mikroorganizmalara baktık.
unfold in a petri plate,
ortaya çıkışını gördük,
you're looking at right now
remains unknown.
bilinmezliğini sürdürüyor.
and got to name a new species.
zamanı hatırlıyorum.
in the nest of a paper wasp.
yaşayan bir mantardı.
in the nest of another.
growing on a dinosaur,
bir tanesinin resmi
thinks dinosaurs are cool.
olduğunu düşünüyor.
that I had found this new life form.
çok heyecanlıydım.
a new microorganism species."
türü keşfettim."
discovered a cure for it."
bir tedavi de bulursun."
to kill my new little life form,
öldürmek istediği o kırılma anında
and in people's backyards,
bahçelerinde çalışıp çabaladığım yıllarda,
the microscopic life around us,
incelerken ve sınıflandırırken
my true mission to him.
life around us.
from this life, that will help save us.
bu yaşamdan yeni teknolojiyi bulmak.
than a list of 100,000 new species.
100 binlik yeni tür listesinden daha çok.
of solutions to human problems.
100 bin yeni çözüm kaynağıdır.
that anything that's so small
bir hücreli olan şeyin
are microscopic alchemists,
their environment
yeteneğine sahipler.
yerde yaşayabilirler demek oluyor
anywhere on this planet,
food is around them.
yiyebilirler.
her şeyi yiyebilirler.
from toxic waste to plastic,
like oil and battery power
atık madde üretebilirler,
into nutritive.
dönüştürür.
problemlerimizin çoğunun çözümünde
these microscopic creatures
to choose from.
bad-smelling clothes or bland food.
ve yavan yiyecekler.
the microscopic life around us,
sadece sınıflandırmak değil
well-suited to help us with.
eşsiz olarak uygun şeyi bulmak.
bir yaban arısı.
a little-known microorganism species
eşsiz yetenekli bir mikroorganizma
a few species on this planet have.
sahip olduğu bir yetenek.
beer you've ever had
ticari üretilen biralar
three microorganism species.
türünün birinden yapılıyor.
a beer that tasted like honey,
bal gibi tatlı yapabilir
a delightfully tart beer.
that lives in the belly of a wasp,
yaşayan bu mikroorganizma türü
on this planet.
that produce commercial beer.
your future favorite beer.
gözde biranı tattığını düşün.
to dig in the dirt in people's backyards.
toprağı kazan araştırmacılarla çalıştım.
that could make novel antibiotics,
bir mikroorganizma keşfettik,
the world's worst superbugs.
öldürebilen antibiyotikler.
and everyone in this room
that produce most of our antibiotics.
toprak bakterisi tarafından kurtarılıyoruz.
comes from colleagues
a pond scum microorganism,
sığır pisliğinin adı verilen
the cow dung it was first found in.
çalışan arkadaşlarımdan geliyor.
and would be unworthy of discussion,
that if you feed it to mice,
bunun farelere verildiğinde
now think of hope.
artık umudu düşün.
to talk about today.
that came from just three species,
çözüm örneklerini verdim
100,000 species in your dust bunnies
100 bin diğer türün
to make you sexier

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Anne Madden - Microbiologist, inventor and strategistWhether brewing better beer, discovering novel antibiotics or chronicling the lives of the microscopic creatures living in the dust under the couch, Anne Madden seeks to understand and utilize the microbial world around us.
Why you should listen
Dr. Anne Madden studies the ways that our dimly understood microbial neighbors can yield surprising discoveries, including solutions to many of our human problems. Alongside her colleagues at North Carolina State University and the University of Colorado, she discovers what life exists around us, and how it can be employed to make our lives better, from new medications to new food and beverage flavors. She's helped create novel brewing technology (see more in her 2016 TEDx Charlotte talk), discovered a new fungus species living inside wasp nests and cataloged the astonishing diversity of some of the microscopic and macroscopic life in our homes by investigating the DNA in our dust.
In addition to her research work at North Carolina State University, Madden is chief strategist and partner at the brewing yeast company Lachancea LLC and consults for a variety of industries from biotechnology and lifestyle companies to textile and food companies. Her work has been featured on numerous media platforms, including National Geographic, Newsweek, Scientific American and PBS NewsHour.
