Mitochondria Promoted to Information Processing Systems
The label “powerhouses of the cell” was too simplistic for the many tasks performed every second by these computing, networking, signaling, regulating wonders.
Twelve “Shocking” Discoveries for Evolution
Some discoveries might be surprising from an evolutionary perspective, but not necessarily from a perspective of intelligent design.
Powerful Protein-Folding Algorithm AlphaFold Foiled by Singletons
We now know that biological information involves far more than just an organism’s proteome.
Why Epigenetics Contradicts Evolutionary Theory
Epigenetic mechanisms are ubiquitous in biology. Because of epigenetics, organisms with otherwise identical genes (e.g., twins) can be quite different.
Revising the Linnaean System: Where to Locate Viruses? And the Problem with Mitochondria
The venue for a remarkable call for government censorship of science was a peer-reviewed biology journal.
