Cognition, Form, Regeneration & Metaphysics: Does Biology Arise From Math? | Michael Levin | 250
Send us a text Where does biological complexity come from and how is it generated? Episode Summary: Dr. Michael Levin talks about cognition manifesting at scales beyond brains, including in cells and tissues via bioelectric networks; analog vs. digital coding in biology; how bioelectric patterns guide development and regeneration (e.g., in planarians); creation of novel life forms like xenobots and anthrobots; philosophical ideas on a "platonic space" of mathematical patterns influencing biol...
