Crank that knob to eLevin!

Honestly. The best moneymaker for morphogenesis is penis enlargement. And it would probably be relatively simple compared to other sites. Apparently Michael isn't driven to own a fleet of yachts or a chain of islands.

The question of whether we have free will is a deeply philosophical and scientific inquiry, and it often intersects with concepts like epigenetics, environmental factors, brain training, and self-inclination. While many people believe in the capacity for free will (the ability to make choices independent of external constraints) research suggests that our decisions are heavily influenced by a combination of genetic predispositions, environmental conditions, and personal experiences. Epigenetics highlights how external factors, such as stress, diet, and social interactions, can affect gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. This means that our environment can shape our biological responses and behaviors, potentially influencing our decision-making processes. For instance, an individual raised in a nurturing environment may develop different inclinations and choices compared to someone in a more challenging setting. Additionally, brain training and self-inclination play critical roles in shaping our thought patterns and behaviors. Through practices like mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, or even simple habit formation, we can train our brains to respond differently to stimuli and make more conscious choices. This suggests that while our choices may be influenced by genetics and environment, we also possess the ability to develop greater self-awareness and intentionality, thereby exercising a form of free will. Ultimately, the interplay between genetic factors, environmental influences, and personal development paints a complex picture of free will. It suggests that while we may not have absolute freedom in our choices, we do have the capacity to shape our paths through conscious effort, resilience, and adaptation. This nuanced understanding invites us to explore the extent of our agency in a world where biology and environment interact dynamically.

Networks of cells operate in a highly coordinated and goal-oriented manner, utilizing bioelectricity as a crucial means of communication and regulation. This concept suggests that these cellular networks can be likened to a "proto-brain," where bioelectrical signals facilitate decision-making processes and responses to environmental stimuli. Just as neurons in the brain communicate through electrical impulses, cellular networks harness bioelectric signals to coordinate complex biological functions, from growth and healing to response mechanisms. Incorporating quantum mechanics into this framework adds an intriguing layer of complexity. Quantum processes, such as coherence and entanglement, may play a role in how bioelectric signals are generated and transmitted. For example, the quantum behavior of molecules involved in cellular communication could influence the efficiency and reliability of bioelectrical signaling. Some researchers propose that quantum effects may underlie the remarkable efficiency of photosynthesis and could potentially extend to cellular processes, enhancing our understanding of how cells achieve their goals. This intersection of bioelectricity and quantum mechanics opens new avenues for exploring how cellular communication impacts health and disease. Disruptions in bioelectric signaling could lead to developmental disorders or impaired healing, while quantum phenomena might contribute to the overall functionality and resilience of these networks. By studying these bioelectric and quantum interactions, researchers can gain deeper insights into the fundamental principles of life and potentially develop innovative therapeutic approaches that leverage the power of both bioelectricity and quantum mechanics to promote tissue regeneration and restore function. Recognizing the interplay between these domains emphasizes the interconnectedness of biological systems and the sophisticated ways in which they achieve their goals.

Levin is great. Would’ve appreciated the interviewer allowing him to finish his thoughts before interrupting….

Hacking Life! Its like watching Darwin talk.

Great interview. I have heard a lot of people talk with Dr Levin and you did an unusually good job of identifying connections and implications. You also let him talk and limited interruptions to important issues, which I really appreciate. I look forward to hearing more of your conversations. Thank you.

It's only a matter of time when big pharma swoops in takes all that research puts a patent on it and jacks up the price out of reach for the average person. That's all there is to it it won't be available to the average person

Great interview, it’s really hard to come up with good questions and certainly no small task to interject them in the middle of Michael’s incredible expositions. Thanks for both of your incredible efforts and hard work.

I find it a bit difficult to believe that you can extrapolate the results in planaria and frogs to humans regarding limb regeneration. Frogs seem to me closer to salamanders and such, and if you slice up a planaria in two (any specific way?) there you'll have two planarians. Yet, you cannot do the same with humans. Perhaps by changing the ion channel potential in a human embryo you can get a baby human with two heads, etc, but with a fully formed human... already born... can you really get one of her/his limbs regrowed? for instance. It might be that he isn't suggesting such a thing and this is just my interpretation. But I do infer that by altering that biocurrent you can alter quite a few things in fully grown mammals. P

In a backroom somewhere, men with black bow ties are discussing methods to weaponize all these breakthroughs. (Looks around the world) Or have they already?

Levin Lab is going into my Will. What better way to heal the body and/or make it more efficent than to help the cells restructure themselves without chemicals. Thank you Michael.

Awesome Dr. Michael Levin, thank you! ❤

Thank you very much both for sharing your time and work, Theral, and Mike, no matter how time's I hear Mike share the credit for his and his team's work not only with other historical figures in the past, but also so many collaborators who contribute to this work and the explore of the field, peace

I am so appreciative of the work that Michael Levin and his team are doing. Thank you for having him on.

Where can i learn more about the communication through ellectrical patterns and the mathematics of it?

Yeah I really like this video can't say I've watched all of his videos but I am watching every single one I can. I like this video because in an hour, is the most information he's packed in one video, that I've seen, it represents a concise clear view, as clear as it can be to any of us, of Michael Levin's education. Of all the videos I've watched of him this is the first one that I've seen the story about the television on his more difficult days with breathing where is father took the back off of the TV that's a very cool story I think it explains the probabilities of the cognitive cone that is being represented by Michael Levin nice concise video. I've watched enough I'm getting my own list of simple explanations of Michael Levin. Personally the best part if there is a best is his approach which is purely scientific and that he adjudicates assumptions are not scientific and in doing so recovered, discovered latent information. For example the question of what is life make an assumption named life with no precipice or explanation. Instead he wants to ask a more pertinent usable question like what kind of existence how much of existence and what kind of tools do I need to understand or help the existence reach its goals. No such thing as duality as a scientist everything must be tested especially assumptions with the foundation acknowledging the possibility of not recognizing nor understanding anything that is being tested or seen. I think this is one of Michael Levin's biggest powers is that he is able to admit from the beginning in his approach that he probably doesn't understand, this is a very different kind of approach than most scientists, physicists, doctors, and many others are behaving today. I believe this simple approach exhibits behavior function and engineering of what we call intelligence; being able to approach a precipice being accountable to the probability that you probably aren't wise or smart enough to see or understand everything, and in doing so that approach leaves all probabilities and possibilities available where many of the current and past approaches have actually closed the possibility of available, necessary information, for the scientist to complete her task. Thank you Dr Levin for all of your wonderful hard work and for this site representing him giving him a chance to put out a beautiful concise version of his ongoing l influence on the scientific front of biology❤GEM ❤

I would like to argue that funding is the key to open this idea of "The New Biology". Like Michael argued that scientists are "wrong" in now shifting from gene/genome to cell. Just look at the funding going from sequencing the genomes, both DNA and RNA as well as species to single cell biome sequencing and mapping.

I am a simple man - I see a video with Michael Levin, I watch it

Yes, what a wonderfully egalitarian society the founders of the American republic made….on the backs of indentured labour and SLAVES, with voting rights reserved for certain land-owning men only; land cleared by genocide don’t forget.

Journal-reading encourages specialization and growth of orthodoxy.

Richard illustrates the value of thinking for oneself.

Peer-review is not a desirable thing for so many reasons. The main reason is that it will block out anyone whose work includes opposing views to that of the establishment. The greatest mathematicians did not have their work peer-reviewed. Has it even occurred to these people that in order to review someone's work, you would at the very least have to be on the same level of intelligence. Most academics are not on the same level. In fact, I would never allow anyone to review my work because I don't know of anyone who has my intelligence or depth of knowledge in mathematics. If Academia.edu insists that content is first peer-reviewed before allowing it to be published (it currently does not), then what will happen is Academia.edu shall become another mainstream knowledge repository like Wikipedia, Mathstackexchange, etc.

Life is always beautiful when you have good health. For almost a year had Herpes and I was lonely and sad luckily I was directed to a very kind and Great Dr ukabuo who helped me cure my Herpes and today I am free from Herpes and very healthy thank you so much Dr ukabuo just WhatsApp ; +2348155224153 and get your healing. He has cure for other deadly diseases like Diabetes, Hiv/Aids, Hepatitis, of all types and Cancer /drukabuoherbalhome.weebly.com

human nature is the wild card in extrapolation

Too bad capitalism has corrupted and controls science. The public good is only as good as profit allows.

🙁

Thought Brin was talking over the interviewer rather a lot than listening to him.

One of the stupid cultures is religion.

As in all his books, Brin uses 200 words to express concepts that other authors would describe in 10 words. His fiction has very nice ideas, but goddam he is tiresomely wordy.

this guy's a genius

Great stuff.

Very cool story, thanks for the interview.

Great interview Thank you for the video

Great author

I can hardly hear Mr Robinson :/

Great interview!

and very important question: may we decide ourselves what we think and do?! Who are these sickos!

you cannot nanocopy spirit

Yes, Mr. Price is daring. I do not equate him with a scientist like Dr. Linus Pauling Nobel Prize Winner. Is his mother the Honorable Queen funding this "brain drain" company?

The sound is terrible -- I think Steve's microphone was not working. Watch his face to see his disappointment at being constantly interrupted by the interviewer. Still there's some good information.

Privileged to know Corey Goodman. This video is well worth watching to see a Renaissance man and biotech innovator talk...

Wow! Wow! Great platform and very informative.

An enjoyable, thought provoking listen, but almost three years later things do not look promising. Diamond? What diamond? I share his love of the Enlightenment, but see it threatened on many fronts.

Brin is a smart man. He understands many things but gets the details wrong. He assigns blame in the wrong places. He believes in this diamond society, praising competition and against those who want to impose a pyramid society. All the while arguing on his other side of the mouth for that pyramid society as long as those like him are in control.
