An international team of researchers has developed a new theoretical framework that bridges physics and biology to provide a unified approach for understanding how complexity and evolution emerge in ...
In a new book, physicist Sara Walker argues that assembly theory can explain what life is, and even help scientists create new forms of it. Sara Walker, a physicist at Arizona State University, says ...
A Second New Paper Shows How Assembly Theory Fails to Define Life’s Complexity and Cannot Be Easily Fixed This new paper corroborates the many concerns demonstrating that AT’s assembly ...
George F. R. Ellis is in the Mathematics Department of the University of Cape Town, Rondebosch 7700, Cape Town, South Africa. Assembly theory fills this gap in an innovative way by quantifying the ...
Usually, when someone starts talking about the interface between evolution and physics, it’s a prelude to a terrible argument that attempts to claim that evolution can’t possibly happen. So, ...
Modern physics can explain everything from the spin of the tiniest particle to the behaviour of entire galaxy clusters. But it can’t explain life. There’s simply no formula to explain the difference ...
Selection in Assembly Space. (A) Pictorial representation of the assembly space represents the formation of combinatorial object space from building blocks and physical constraints. (B) Observed copy ...
Assembly theory bridges the gap between physics and biology in explaining how complex objects are identifiable as products of evolution and how reusability of parts allows novelty and identical ...
