Self-organization mechanism of intelligence

EPSON DSC picture

A cell is the smallest system where dynamism of life works autonomously. Emergence of cellular functions is studied in terms of hierarchic self-organization in chemical systems far away from equilibrium. The true slime mold is a giant amoeboid cell and is useful for this purpose. Cellular information which governs cell behavior and morphogenesis is studied in terms of spatio-temporal dynamics of both metabolism and gene expression.
Our current projects are:
- judgment of likes and dislikes
- origin of biological rhythm
- organization of cytoskeleton
- phototransduction mechanism
- lipidmetabolism
- positional information in morphogenesis
Maze solving by the Physarum plasmodium

- Keywords
- cellular informatics, cellular function, cell behaviour, biological rhythm, morphogenesis, self-organization, spatio-temporal dynamics, true slime mold, myxomycetes, Physarum polycephalum
