New BIO-Complexity Paper Details Complexity of Function and Assembly of Bacterial Flagellum
The author, Dean Schulz, an engineer with a PhD in computer science, takes a “bottom up” approach.
Engineering Better Explains Adaptation than Evolutionary Theory
The genetic variation in any species is confined to a limited set of variables such as a finch beak’s thickness.
How Engineers Helped Save Biology from Evolutionary Theory
Design motifs such as four-bar linkages and control systems must meet exacting requirements whether implemented in a space shuttle or a fish.
Why Systems Biologists Now Assume Life Is Optimally Designed
Purported examples of poor design usually represent opinions resulting from armchair critics’ limited understanding of the technical literature.
Exploring a TEDx Talk that Argues Biology Is “Imperfect” with “Gigantic Mistakes”
Proponents of intelligent design would agree that biology is imperfect and biomedicine should be encouraged to cure diseases and fix problems.
