1 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:12,430 you 2 00:00:16,460 --> 00:00:14,780 while Tess is not here today to give her 3 00:00:17,810 --> 00:00:16,470 talk so that's a bit unfortunate but 4 00:00:21,769 --> 00:00:17,820 maybe it's better because her slides 5 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:21,779 wouldn't have been here but the whole 6 00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:24,570 point of kind of having us in this room 7 00:00:26,990 --> 00:00:25,950 getting this talk is to try to bring a 8 00:00:28,999 --> 00:00:27,000 new perspective to thinking about 9 00:00:30,170 --> 00:00:29,009 exoplanet biosignatures and it's 10 00:00:33,020 --> 00:00:30,180 actually a discussion that really would 11 00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:33,030 be had if having these kind of methods 12 00:00:36,860 --> 00:00:35,310 in a different room at apps icon so John 13 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:36,870 can we actually bring some of the 14 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:38,250 techniques that we're using in different 15 00:00:44,599 --> 00:00:40,290 areas into thinking about exoplanet bio 16 00:00:47,900 --> 00:00:44,609 signatures and so I am originally 17 00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:47,910 scientist I work primarily on thinking 18 00:00:51,529 --> 00:00:49,680 about living systems and one of the 19 00:00:53,209 --> 00:00:51,539 things I think is really intriguing to 20 00:00:55,610 --> 00:00:53,219 me about exoplanets is the opportunity 21 00:00:57,410 --> 00:00:55,620 actually to think about life from an 22 00:00:58,729 --> 00:00:57,420 entirely different perspective and so 23 00:01:00,830 --> 00:00:58,739 what I would hope is that we can 24 00:01:02,209 --> 00:01:00,840 actually take advantage of a unique 25 00:01:04,220 --> 00:01:02,219 opportunity that we're going to get with 26 00:01:06,380 --> 00:01:04,230 exoplanets to get more information about 27 00:01:09,380 --> 00:01:06,390 building series for living systems and 28 00:01:11,090 --> 00:01:09,390 so that's actually my ultimate goal but 29 00:01:15,290 --> 00:01:11,100 what we're trying to do is actually look 30 00:01:17,719 --> 00:01:15,300 at atmospheres more from a systems 31 00:01:19,310 --> 00:01:17,729 perspective and so what people do in 32 00:01:20,420 --> 00:01:19,320 other areas of science that are thinking 33 00:01:22,850 --> 00:01:20,430 about living systems from more 34 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:22,860 quantitative perspective is actually try 35 00:01:30,770 --> 00:01:26,610 to think about the network structure of 36 00:01:32,149 --> 00:01:30,780 living systems and what I mean by this 37 00:01:34,819 --> 00:01:32,159 so how many people here actually on 38 00:01:37,249 --> 00:01:34,829 Facebook a lot of people how many people 39 00:01:39,139 --> 00:01:37,259 are tweeting right now okay you're a 40 00:01:41,990 --> 00:01:39,149 part of a network you may not know it 41 00:01:43,399 --> 00:01:42,000 that you are and so what happens on 42 00:01:44,929 --> 00:01:43,409 Facebook if you want to represent that 43 00:01:46,999 --> 00:01:44,939 mathematically what the structure of 44 00:01:49,399 --> 00:01:47,009 Facebook is you can do that in a 45 00:01:50,929 --> 00:01:49,409 graphical representation and so each 46 00:01:52,969 --> 00:01:50,939 person is we raised their hand raise 47 00:01:54,380 --> 00:01:52,979 your hand again you would be a node how 48 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:54,390 many people are and you're friends with 49 00:01:58,279 --> 00:01:55,530 other people in this room probably 50 00:02:00,080 --> 00:01:58,289 everybody yeah okay so there would be 51 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:00,090 connections between the people in this 52 00:02:06,590 --> 00:02:03,450 room and we could actually build a 53 00:02:08,359 --> 00:02:06,600 network structure to describe that as it 54 00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:08,369 turns out when you do that for living 55 00:02:11,450 --> 00:02:09,840 systems when you do that for social 56 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:11,460 systems or you do it for chemical 57 00:02:15,140 --> 00:02:14,130 systems you end up realizing that 58 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:15,150 there's a lot of statistical 59 00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:17,490 regularities in that structure and so 60 00:02:20,390 --> 00:02:18,990 that's actually the topological 61 00:02:22,250 --> 00:02:20,400 properties of the networks that we study 62 00:02:23,809 --> 00:02:22,260 and so what I'm going to talk about at 63 00:02:25,180 --> 00:02:23,819 2:45 in another room which hopefully 64 00:02:27,890 --> 00:02:25,190 will have my flies 65 00:02:30,830 --> 00:02:27,900 is actually the biochemical Network 66 00:02:31,910 --> 00:02:30,840 structure of the biosphere as a whole so 67 00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:31,920 one of the things that we've been doing 68 00:02:36,380 --> 00:02:34,080 in my group is actually looking at the 69 00:02:38,630 --> 00:02:36,390 structure of reactions with inside 70 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:38,640 individual organisms at the level of 71 00:02:41,899 --> 00:02:40,170 entire communities and at the level of 72 00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:41,909 the biosphere as a whole and they have a 73 00:02:46,910 --> 00:02:43,650 lot of statistical regularities across 74 00:02:48,830 --> 00:02:46,920 those scales as it turns out some of 75 00:02:51,890 --> 00:02:48,840 those statistical regularities are also 76 00:02:53,449 --> 00:02:51,900 apparent and atmospheres of planets so 77 00:02:55,490 --> 00:02:53,459 some networks serious being Network 78 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:55,500 serious they'd like to study systems in 79 00:02:59,150 --> 00:02:56,730 all kinds of different areas have 80 00:03:01,819 --> 00:02:59,160 actually published a few papers looking 81 00:03:03,770 --> 00:03:01,829 at the network structure of chemical 82 00:03:05,270 --> 00:03:03,780 reaction networks in atmospheres and I 83 00:03:06,530 --> 00:03:05,280 think this is a literature that people 84 00:03:08,150 --> 00:03:06,540 max the planet community maybe are not 85 00:03:09,830 --> 00:03:08,160 aware of it's a very small literature 86 00:03:12,559 --> 00:03:09,840 I've only been able to come across less 87 00:03:14,270 --> 00:03:12,569 than 10 papers doing this but I think 88 00:03:16,009 --> 00:03:14,280 it's been incredibly promising Avenue 89 00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:16,019 for thinking about atmospheres not just 90 00:03:19,699 --> 00:03:17,609 in terms of their molecular constituents 91 00:03:21,140 --> 00:03:19,709 but their actual structure like what is 92 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:21,150 the structure of an atmosphere from this 93 00:03:25,970 --> 00:03:22,530 kind of perspective that's relevant to 94 00:03:27,710 --> 00:03:25,980 living system and so I think I'm just 95 00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:27,720 going to go in my slides at this point I 96 00:03:31,220 --> 00:03:29,910 think I have to okay so I'm just going 97 00:03:32,839 --> 00:03:31,230 to you guys are just going to cheese or 98 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:32,849 of you know this kind of new approach to 99 00:03:36,740 --> 00:03:34,730 thinking about bio signatures and then 100 00:03:38,449 --> 00:03:36,750 really actually the whole point of this 101 00:03:39,409 --> 00:03:38,459 was to open this as a conversation for 102 00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:39,419 thinking about things a little bit 103 00:03:44,690 --> 00:03:42,510 differently so so these few papers have 104 00:03:46,940 --> 00:03:44,700 actually demonstrated that there might 105 00:03:49,610 --> 00:03:46,950 be some features just looking at the 106 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:49,620 atmospheres in our own solar system that 107 00:03:55,659 --> 00:03:52,250 are different between Earth and other 108 00:03:57,770 --> 00:03:55,669 atmospheres and so for those of you that 109 00:04:00,199 --> 00:03:57,780 raised your hands for Facebook raise 110 00:04:01,819 --> 00:04:00,209 your hands again okay so what kind of 111 00:04:03,589 --> 00:04:01,829 statistical regularities am I talking 112 00:04:05,990 --> 00:04:03,599 about how many people in this room have 113 00:04:07,460 --> 00:04:06,000 more than 100 friends on Facebook okay 114 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:07,470 how many people are more than 200 115 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:10,530 friends okay how many people have more 116 00:04:16,789 --> 00:04:13,530 than 300 friends how many people have 117 00:04:18,890 --> 00:04:16,799 more than 400 friends I'm not raising my 118 00:04:20,750 --> 00:04:18,900 hand more I was lost long ago I'm one of 119 00:04:23,300 --> 00:04:20,760 those yeah well our hips 500 friends 120 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:23,310 okay so so what we just saw was actually 121 00:04:27,290 --> 00:04:25,289 a distribution of how many friends 122 00:04:28,700 --> 00:04:27,300 people have and you can look at those 123 00:04:30,170 --> 00:04:28,710 kinds of distributions and if you look 124 00:04:32,300 --> 00:04:30,180 at them and biochemical networks they 125 00:04:34,969 --> 00:04:32,310 actually have a power-law distribution 126 00:04:36,110 --> 00:04:34,979 and that kind of property is one of the 127 00:04:37,430 --> 00:04:36,120 kind of properties that we think is 128 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:37,440 actually relevant to by a lot 129 00:04:40,940 --> 00:04:38,970 organization and so if you look at 130 00:04:43,370 --> 00:04:40,950 Earth's atmosphere if you actually 131 00:04:45,770 --> 00:04:43,380 inventoried how many reactions molecules 132 00:04:47,390 --> 00:04:45,780 participate in in Earth's atmosphere it 133 00:04:49,940 --> 00:04:47,400 would follow a similar distribution how 134 00:04:52,460 --> 00:04:49,950 you guys raise your hands but if you 135 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:52,470 look at the atmosphere of Mars or Venus 136 00:04:57,740 --> 00:04:55,890 or Titan the preliminary analysis people 137 00:04:59,480 --> 00:04:57,750 done suggest that it's not really quite 138 00:05:00,860 --> 00:04:59,490 that distribution it might be more 139 00:05:03,140 --> 00:05:00,870 homogeneous so there might be more 140 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:03,150 people with a hundred friends everybody 141 00:05:05,780 --> 00:05:04,410 has the same number of friends and there 142 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:05,790 aren't those anomalies that have a 143 00:05:10,910 --> 00:05:09,090 thousand friends so the heterogeneity of 144 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:10,920 the distribution of having really 145 00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:12,450 popular people having justin bieber's 146 00:05:18,620 --> 00:05:16,110 for example is really indicative of 147 00:05:22,340 --> 00:05:18,630 living systems it leads to robustness 148 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:22,350 and living systems and it's actually 149 00:05:25,820 --> 00:05:24,090 could potentially be a bio signature and 150 00:05:27,830 --> 00:05:25,830 so what we're interested in doing is 151 00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:27,840 actually doing more rigorous analysis of 152 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:30,000 different planetary atmospheres to try 153 00:05:33,050 --> 00:05:31,770 to figure out if this really is a robust 154 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:33,060 bio signature if it's not just an 155 00:05:36,530 --> 00:05:34,770 artifact of our models what are the 156 00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:36,540 conditions that give rise to this kind 157 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:37,290 of structure in the Earth's atmosphere 158 00:05:40,490 --> 00:05:38,970 that makes it different from the 159 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:40,500 atmospheres of other worlds and how can 160 00:05:46,250 --> 00:05:44,130 we actually use that in exoplanets can 161 00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:46,260 we just wrecked ly detect this kind of 162 00:05:51,070 --> 00:05:49,110 structure at a systems level and so it 163 00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:51,080 becomes a really kind of interesting 164 00:05:54,470 --> 00:05:53,280 problem for understanding atmospheres 165 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:54,480 and how they're coupled to a biosphere 166 00:05:57,500 --> 00:05:56,010 because the way the way I actually think 167 00:05:59,630 --> 00:05:57,510 about it you have this network of all 168 00:06:01,640 --> 00:05:59,640 the chemistry on a serviceable planet 169 00:06:02,990 --> 00:06:01,650 that biology catalyzes and you have an 170 00:06:05,570 --> 00:06:03,000 atmosphere and those are actually two 171 00:06:07,010 --> 00:06:05,580 coupled networks that are overlaid over 172 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:07,020 each other and one is driving the other 173 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:08,370 right so can we actually think about 174 00:06:13,610 --> 00:06:10,530 them at that global scale of the 175 00:06:14,990 --> 00:06:13,620 reaction network structure and so that 176 00:06:16,940 --> 00:06:15,000 would actually be the ultimate hope so 177 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:16,950 I'm going to finish my song and dance 178 00:06:21,380 --> 00:06:19,410 routine because I think I could go on 179 00:06:22,730 --> 00:06:21,390 for this forever but actually since we 180 00:06:24,409 --> 00:06:22,740 have the time maybe it'd be good to have 181 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:24,419 like some community comment questions 182 00:06:31,780 --> 00:06:28,650 discussion and yeah we'll see how that 183 00:06:33,980 --> 00:06:31,790 goes how much more time do I have you 184 00:06:36,980 --> 00:06:33,990 including questions have about nine more 185 00:06:39,020 --> 00:06:36,990 minutes but but first let's give you a 186 00:06:40,730 --> 00:06:39,030 really deep round of applause 187 00:06:44,219 --> 00:06:40,740 that's really 188 00:06:47,850 --> 00:06:44,229 without slides and everyone will 189 00:06:50,730 --> 00:06:47,860 remember so I'm so I actually really 190 00:06:53,730 --> 00:06:50,740 like this just them yes come on up 191 00:06:56,399 --> 00:06:53,740 questions please wow this is so cool and 192 00:06:57,959 --> 00:06:56,409 it's so ironic because what you're 193 00:06:59,219 --> 00:06:57,969 talking about is the ultimate kind of 194 00:07:03,450 --> 00:06:59,229 visualization 195 00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:03,460 I know data I know ya see it we've been 196 00:07:07,170 --> 00:07:04,960 doing a similar thing with minerals and 197 00:07:09,029 --> 00:07:07,180 we find that we think we're also seeing 198 00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:09,039 a bio signature on earth with the 199 00:07:13,379 --> 00:07:11,919 distribution of minerals in the 200 00:07:15,119 --> 00:07:13,389 opportunity place it's a particular 201 00:07:17,339 --> 00:07:15,129 frequency distribution called a large 202 00:07:18,930 --> 00:07:17,349 number of rare event distribution but it 203 00:07:22,770 --> 00:07:18,940 seems like that's not found on any other 204 00:07:24,209 --> 00:07:22,780 at least rest your body in our system we 205 00:07:27,719 --> 00:07:24,219 also are seeing really interesting 206 00:07:29,790 --> 00:07:27,729 Network topologies which is a different 207 00:07:31,170 --> 00:07:29,800 thing and again I mean that's what the 208 00:07:32,999 --> 00:07:31,180 power of networks you're seeing lots of 209 00:07:36,330 --> 00:07:33,009 different dimensions so so do you have 210 00:07:39,689 --> 00:07:36,340 any of the network metric did you ask 211 00:07:41,969 --> 00:07:39,699 about sure sure yes I'm really glad that 212 00:07:43,529 --> 00:07:41,979 you're looking at minerals and so so one 213 00:07:45,869 --> 00:07:43,539 thing I'd like to do is start connecting 214 00:07:47,249 --> 00:07:45,879 like the Earth's geochemical networks of 215 00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:47,259 biochemical networks atmospheric 216 00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:48,969 networks to do this kind of analysis but 217 00:07:52,559 --> 00:07:50,409 but the kind of things we're looking at 218 00:07:54,450 --> 00:07:52,569 so traditionally people look at the 219 00:07:56,070 --> 00:07:54,460 degree distribution it's a technical 220 00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:56,080 term for like hand waving that we just 221 00:08:01,320 --> 00:07:58,330 did which is actually looking at how 222 00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:01,330 connected individual molecules are and 223 00:08:05,490 --> 00:08:03,969 then plotting that connectivity in a 224 00:08:07,469 --> 00:08:05,500 rank order fashion and fitting it with a 225 00:08:10,260 --> 00:08:07,479 nice power law but it turns out to be 226 00:08:12,890 --> 00:08:10,270 really hard to fit a power law to 227 00:08:15,510 --> 00:08:12,900 networks in a statistically rigorous way 228 00:08:16,980 --> 00:08:15,520 so I am more in favor of using other 229 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:16,990 measures besides just the degree 230 00:08:20,730 --> 00:08:18,610 sequence for trying to understand the 231 00:08:22,950 --> 00:08:20,740 structure of these networks so some of 232 00:08:26,129 --> 00:08:22,960 the things that we've been looking at 233 00:08:29,490 --> 00:08:26,139 our things like the clustering and the 234 00:08:33,329 --> 00:08:29,500 network so for example if I'm friends 235 00:08:36,779 --> 00:08:33,339 with Sean and Sean knows Hillary and 236 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:36,789 Hillary knows Nancy and Nancy knows Sean 237 00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:39,130 they form a triangle among my friends 238 00:08:42,899 --> 00:08:41,409 and I can count how many triangles among 239 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:42,909 my friends there are in the system and 240 00:08:47,220 --> 00:08:44,050 that actually becomes a statistical 241 00:08:48,269 --> 00:08:47,230 property of the network and so we can 242 00:08:49,860 --> 00:08:48,279 look at that 243 00:08:50,750 --> 00:08:49,870 we've been looking at average path 244 00:08:53,810 --> 00:08:50,760 length 245 00:08:55,579 --> 00:08:53,820 so you can look at how far it takes to 246 00:08:56,990 --> 00:08:55,589 get from one individual to another so 247 00:08:58,100 --> 00:08:57,000 how many chemical reactions does it take 248 00:09:00,079 --> 00:08:58,110 to get from one species to another 249 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:00,089 species in the network so probably most 250 00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:01,290 people this room have heard of like six 251 00:09:04,250 --> 00:09:03,120 degrees of separation that's actually 252 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:04,260 where that comes from is from network 253 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:05,970 science that you actually literally in a 254 00:09:11,180 --> 00:09:08,130 social network or only six people away 255 00:09:12,260 --> 00:09:11,190 from anybody on the planet and that was 256 00:09:15,949 --> 00:09:12,270 an experiment that was done that was 257 00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:15,959 pretty cool so that's another one and so 258 00:09:19,670 --> 00:09:17,760 so there's all these kinds of we could 259 00:09:21,170 --> 00:09:19,680 get into more technical conversation 260 00:09:22,130 --> 00:09:21,180 later but I'd really like to hear more 261 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:22,140 about what you're doing they missed your 262 00:09:26,870 --> 00:09:24,450 talk on that this morning so so that'd 263 00:09:28,730 --> 00:09:26,880 be great I'll go to the next question hi 264 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:28,740 Joshua Chris Hanson Tom University of 265 00:09:32,210 --> 00:09:30,000 Washington so I might be wrong about 266 00:09:34,310 --> 00:09:32,220 this but I suspect that a lot of the 267 00:09:37,310 --> 00:09:34,320 complexity in the network of Earth's 268 00:09:39,230 --> 00:09:37,320 atmosphere is attributable to traces by 269 00:09:40,519 --> 00:09:39,240 genetic species mm-hmm and so I'm 270 00:09:42,740 --> 00:09:40,529 wondering about the detectability of 271 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:42,750 these so network properties yeah the 272 00:09:46,970 --> 00:09:44,490 planets what would you well so so 273 00:09:52,370 --> 00:09:46,980 interesting this is a great question so 274 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:52,380 I I think even if you had trace species 275 00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:53,970 in the network they could they could 276 00:09:59,660 --> 00:09:56,880 change the structure of the network 277 00:10:02,180 --> 00:09:59,670 enough to be detectable but a lot of the 278 00:10:03,650 --> 00:10:02,190 stuff that we're looking at is global 279 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:03,660 properties of the network so they will 280 00:10:06,650 --> 00:10:04,890 be things that are statistically 281 00:10:08,780 --> 00:10:06,660 averaged over the entire network so 282 00:10:10,519 --> 00:10:08,790 you'll count for example how many 283 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:10,529 friends in each individual and network 284 00:10:14,690 --> 00:10:11,970 has and then look at the average over 285 00:10:16,610 --> 00:10:14,700 the entire network you can also look at 286 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:16,620 those as local measures and how they're 287 00:10:22,190 --> 00:10:19,250 distributed in the network but since 288 00:10:24,310 --> 00:10:22,200 you're trying to infer the properties of 289 00:10:27,350 --> 00:10:24,320 the structure of the network as a whole 290 00:10:32,449 --> 00:10:27,360 it's not as sensitive as you would think 291 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:32,459 to individual species and so it is in 292 00:10:37,250 --> 00:10:35,490 principle possible maybe because we're 293 00:10:39,500 --> 00:10:37,260 looking at it in a statistical sense to 294 00:10:40,519 --> 00:10:39,510 be able to infer those properties does 295 00:10:45,410 --> 00:10:40,529 that make sense in the context to your 296 00:10:48,530 --> 00:10:45,420 question hi Emma Jablonski hi I was 297 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:48,540 somewhat early question um you said that 298 00:10:55,610 --> 00:10:50,490 there is a difference between the 299 00:10:58,310 --> 00:10:55,620 network artifacts in the earth versus 300 00:10:59,810 --> 00:10:58,320 some of the other planets in room is any 301 00:11:00,249 --> 00:10:59,820 of that attributable to the amount of 302 00:11:02,139 --> 00:11:00,259 data 303 00:11:04,719 --> 00:11:02,149 available yeah so actually that's a big 304 00:11:07,179 --> 00:11:04,729 problem and that's one of the things 305 00:11:09,099 --> 00:11:07,189 that we're actually actively working to 306 00:11:10,659 --> 00:11:09,109 try to get to the bottom of and so I 307 00:11:11,919 --> 00:11:10,669 since I didn't have my five I didn't 308 00:11:14,409 --> 00:11:11,929 really mention my collaborators on this 309 00:11:15,669 --> 00:11:14,419 but fit sighs Tessa Fisher there's two 310 00:11:18,189 --> 00:11:15,679 other students made repairs and Smith 311 00:11:20,379 --> 00:11:18,199 and coral Ruiz working on this and we 312 00:11:21,609 --> 00:11:20,389 also have my Klein and Jim Lyons a ASU 313 00:11:22,809 --> 00:11:21,619 that are giving sort of atmospheric 314 00:11:24,759 --> 00:11:22,819 expertise which is one of the nice 315 00:11:25,989 --> 00:11:24,769 things about if you we have a network 316 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:25,999 scientist next one atmospheric 317 00:11:32,079 --> 00:11:27,410 scientists in the same hallway which is 318 00:11:33,429 --> 00:11:32,089 kinda fun but but so they're the reason 319 00:11:34,989 --> 00:11:33,439 I mentioned that now is that Jim and 320 00:11:36,819 --> 00:11:34,999 Mike are trying to help bring story the 321 00:11:39,159 --> 00:11:36,829 expertise about the biases and different 322 00:11:41,319 --> 00:11:39,169 models because there are a lot of them 323 00:11:43,210 --> 00:11:41,329 and one of the bigger problems is that 324 00:11:44,799 --> 00:11:43,220 the network for Earth is huge by 325 00:11:48,669 --> 00:11:44,809 comparison space what we know is Mars 326 00:11:50,139 --> 00:11:48,679 for example and so that's actually one 327 00:11:51,819 --> 00:11:50,149 of the reasons I don't trust the degree 328 00:11:54,129 --> 00:11:51,829 sequence for example so if you want to 329 00:11:56,829 --> 00:11:54,139 fit like a power law to a network that 330 00:11:58,449 --> 00:11:56,839 has you know 30 nodes like what we look 331 00:12:00,069 --> 00:11:58,459 at with margins network that we've been 332 00:12:01,269 --> 00:12:00,079 analyzing so far compared to one that 333 00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:01,279 has a couple hundred nodes like the 334 00:12:05,979 --> 00:12:03,889 earth Network your fits are much more 335 00:12:08,409 --> 00:12:05,989 reliable for Earth than for Mars so I 336 00:12:10,499 --> 00:12:08,419 think what we need to do is look at the 337 00:12:12,759 --> 00:12:10,509 properties that are not necessarily as 338 00:12:17,019 --> 00:12:12,769 dependent on how large your network is 339 00:12:19,749 --> 00:12:17,029 so that's one another one is that a lot 340 00:12:22,119 --> 00:12:19,759 of times with these so even when you're 341 00:12:23,889 --> 00:12:22,129 looking at biochemical networks you can 342 00:12:25,419 --> 00:12:23,899 construct those from genomic data but 343 00:12:29,079 --> 00:12:25,429 oftentimes we don't have all the genomic 344 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:29,089 data and there are a lot of analyses 345 00:12:34,359 --> 00:12:31,850 done on these kind of networks to show 346 00:12:35,859 --> 00:12:34,369 that they're robust in terms of these 347 00:12:37,569 --> 00:12:35,869 sort of like global measurements that 348 00:12:40,150 --> 00:12:37,579 we're taking to say if you knocked out 349 00:12:41,379 --> 00:12:40,160 10% of nodes to try to represent the 350 00:12:43,210 --> 00:12:41,389 fact that maybe we don't know 10 percent 351 00:12:44,889 --> 00:12:43,220 of the genes in the genome and so how 352 00:12:45,999 --> 00:12:44,899 accurately are we actually getting a 353 00:12:49,029 --> 00:12:46,009 picture of that structure of that 354 00:12:53,949 --> 00:12:49,039 network so they are robust to sort of a 355 00:12:55,749 --> 00:12:53,959 certain degree of missing data but it 356 00:12:57,009 --> 00:12:55,759 depends on how unknown your unknown is 357 00:12:58,539 --> 00:12:57,019 so if we're missing several hundred 358 00:13:01,449 --> 00:12:58,549 reactions when we like 300 that we have 359 00:13:03,990 --> 00:13:01,459 a big problem but if it's our 330 but if 360 00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:04,000 it's you know 30 and we're missing 10 361 00:13:10,050 --> 00:13:06,880 that's not so problematic so yeah so 362 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:10,060 that's where I think this is is is 363 00:13:13,350 --> 00:13:11,890 fruitful to start having these kind of 364 00:13:14,970 --> 00:13:13,360 conversations because from the network 365 00:13:16,530 --> 00:13:14,980 side you know we know how to do these 366 00:13:18,540 --> 00:13:16,540 analyses in relation to what's the story 367 00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:18,550 in biology but from a Mystere site I 368 00:13:22,650 --> 00:13:20,710 really rely on my colleague to tell me 369 00:13:23,970 --> 00:13:22,660 what models are actually giving accurate 370 00:13:28,190 --> 00:13:23,980 picture of an atmosphere and what's 371 00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:28,200 missing you time for one more question 372 00:13:35,700 --> 00:13:31,690 um doesn't that fantastic tilt great 373 00:13:39,300 --> 00:13:35,710 graphics thank you it was on your mind I 374 00:13:42,150 --> 00:13:39,310 know it isn't so is a census a power-law 375 00:13:44,390 --> 00:13:42,160 distribution for the poor network of 376 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:44,400 Earth means you've got one or two 377 00:13:49,380 --> 00:13:46,930 species the rat with a huge number of 378 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:49,390 different things yeah so you have a few 379 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:50,890 species that react with a huge number 380 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:53,530 okay so isn't that just oxygen yes so 381 00:14:00,150 --> 00:13:57,130 what your talent is right yes Yuki so 382 00:14:01,350 --> 00:14:00,160 oxygen is a huge bias in the structure 383 00:14:04,050 --> 00:14:01,360 of the network and so one of the 384 00:14:06,270 --> 00:14:04,060 questions that we have is is maybe the 385 00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:06,280 structure Mars Earth atmosphere 386 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:08,830 completely attributable to oxygen or 387 00:14:12,270 --> 00:14:10,930 does it involve other biogenic gases and 388 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:12,280 how is that actually driving the 389 00:14:16,110 --> 00:14:14,530 structure and we have looked at some 390 00:14:19,020 --> 00:14:16,120 models for early Earth and don't have 391 00:14:21,030 --> 00:14:19,030 the data to show but but early Earth 392 00:14:22,770 --> 00:14:21,040 networks tend to be heterogeneous - 393 00:14:24,750 --> 00:14:22,780 they're just not as heterogeneous as 394 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:24,760 modern earth so I think that there still 395 00:14:29,430 --> 00:14:26,650 are some opportunities besides the 396 00:14:30,450 --> 00:14:29,440 oxygen story to look at that and so one 397 00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:30,460 of the things that we'd like to do 398 00:14:33,270 --> 00:14:31,360 moving forward is look at different 399 00:14:36,180 --> 00:14:33,280 classes of chemical species and see how 400 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:36,190 they change the structure of networks so 401 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:39,490 try to build up more of a theory that is 402 00:14:42,750 --> 00:14:41,290 coupled to the way we think about 403 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:42,760 chemistry and atmospheres in the way we 404 00:14:45,060 --> 00:14:43,930 think about the network structure that 405 00:14:47,340 --> 00:14:45,070 those chemistry's so you could actually 406 00:14:48,660 --> 00:14:47,350 have more like be able to predict based 407 00:14:50,610 --> 00:14:48,670 on certain sets of molecules being 408 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:50,620 present what that kind of structure you 409 00:14:54,090 --> 00:14:52,810 want a big list of gases I know that's 410 00:14:55,650 --> 00:14:54,100 why we're going to talk all right 411 00:14:57,490 --> 00:14:55,660 another resounding round of applause for
