This is visualizing the process of the conversion of mechanical energy into chemical and electrical energy very nicely.

这一模拟恰到好处地演示了,机械能到化学能和电能的转换过程。

Well I need to take that number and I'm going to turn it into a string. So notice what I'm going to do right here. I take that number and convert it into a string. That's an example of that type conversion we did earlier on. By doing that it makes it possible for me to treat it as an ordered sequence of characters.

我可能得把这个数字变为字符串,请注意我这里是怎么做的,我把这个数字,转化为字符串了,这是我们之前学过的,类型转换的例子,这么一来我就能把它按照有序的。

So the two points of interest of research are how does it work this conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy how are we able to bring back lost hair cells to cure deafness.

因此这项研究的两个关键点,一是机械能,是如何转化成电能的,我们能不能通过修复受损的毛细胞,来治疗耳聋。

I don't want to go through this in detail because I assume that you know it, plus I think it's a little bit easier to read and have some time to digest, but this process of translation or conversion of messenger RNA into a protein is a complicated biological process that's occurring all the time.

我不想在这些上讲太多的细节,因为我猜你们之前都有所了解了,你们花上一点时间,就能消化这些内容,但mRNA翻译,或者说转译成蛋白质的过程,是个极其复杂的生物过程,而且每时每刻都在发生

This conversion from a mechanical energy into a chemical energy can be nicely visualized when one fills a hair cell with a sensitive die that responds to the calcium ions that influx into the cell.

如果在毛细胞中注入,对钙离子敏感的物质,可以精确地模拟,这一机械能到化学能的转化过程。
