The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for 1993 was awarded jointly to Richard J. Roberts and Phillip A. Sharp for their discovery of split genes. They...
Living organisms replicate and reproduce themselves. During replication, not the organism itself is copied, but the genetic material containing the information...
Without the gratuitous references to the alleged mind, it sounds like the behaviorist manifesto. Maybe psychology will eventually come back from La-La Land. ...
The Wright Center at Tufts University has a nice cosmic evolution web site : View the past, present and future of the Universe as you move along the Arrow of...
Sometimes a weird or mad scientist is needed to discover something really new "at the edge of chaos", and to escape the traps and limitations of current models...
Although Dr. Pinker is a psychology professor at Harvard University, he is an expert in language and linguistics. In his book "Words and Rules" he tries to...
Is our mind a mental organism ? Do we have mental organs evolved by natural selection in the sense of Pinker's "How the mind works" ? Yes and No. The...
... This is not wrong. The memes are entering the hardware (the brain) using sensors, and the electric and/or chimical signals are processed by the initial...
... You mean if you can study complex adaptive systems and multi-agent systems with chaos theory ? Good Question. Yes, you can use chaos theory to study these...
... Your arguments are neither precise nor clear. Yes, all is "implemented" on genetic controlled hardware. But Languages for example exist independent of...
Weinan E and Bjorn Engquist, both professor of mathematics at Princeton University, have written an interesting article about "Multiscale Modelling and...

... I think that you did not mention one more important way of influence of memetic evolution on genetic evolution. The rules and traditions developed by the...
... Did you read anything of my post ? I guess you just searched for arguments supporting your point of view. If you want others to read your arguments, you...
View the Milky Way at 10 million light years from the Earth. Then move through space towards the Earth in successive orders of magnitude until you reach a tall...
