Excited that my paper has been published! 🎉

I explore the life-mind continuity thesis and argue that current formulations contains key ambiguities. I also propose some improvements. Check it out:

Spontaneity is such a fascinating concept! 💥 Thanks to @CPSUiO lunch time seminar for hosting me and for the great feedback on my talk!

[AssemblingLife @Assembling_Life]

Interested in chemical spontaneity? Our researcher @OestSander has a very interesting view on this, which he presented last week at the @CPSUiO lunch time seminar. ⚗️🧪

1/4 In our new concept paper in @BiolTheory, we elaborate an investigative approach that prioritizes the art of careful observation, the biological whole, and physical thinking in order to develop novel biological theories of morphogenesis. https://t.co/GY89aJKkHL

Homeostasis has been invoked as central for physiology. It has also been the target of criticisms that led to the introduction of many alternative concepts. This paper advances a framework in which regulation is viewed from the perspective of the organism

Extremely excited for the upcoming #CPS Gen 2.0 workshop. Philosophy of Science is thriving in Oslo! 🌅

[AssemblingLife @Assembling_Life]

We are very excited for the #CPS Gen2.0 workshop! It brings together all the aspects of the centre including science and policy making, formal ontology, methodology in philosophy of science, philosophy of physics and communication and the social world. Here the program ⬇️

More #philosophy&biology happening at the Science Studies Colloquium Series with Tobias Uller talking about contrasting evolutionary explanations and the role that assumptions make in our evaluations of evolutionary theories @UniOslo 🦋

It's out! AI as framed is impossible: venture capitalist lies & academic-bro grifting during the rise of fascism & the fall of university funding. And these guys — we all know who they are — side with those destroying consuming and eating the world. Link below!

Jeg har skrevet en artikel til tidsskriftet Paradoks, hvor jeg beskriver historien og begreberne bag tre forskellige typer materielle systemer. Tag et kig, hvis det lyder interessant:

@ProfLaurenRoss @Assembling_Life @FranciBellazzi @UniOslo It was such a pleasure meeting you - thank you for sharing your work and thoughts with us! 😊

[Sebastian Sander-Oest @OestSander]

A great pleasure to be participating in #EASPLS on "Explanation and Evidence in Biology and Medicine" at @KLIAustria this week. Lovely presentations and group sessions so far and I'm very excited for the rest! @Assembling_Life

An absolutely excellent talk at the #CPS lunch forum today! A huge thanks to @ProfLaurenRoss for coming to Oslo to share her ideas with the @Assembling_Life group 🦋

[AssemblingLife @Assembling_Life]

Another week of great activities for #AssemblingLife starting with a project meeting with @ProfLaurenRoss followed by her talk for the #CPS lunchtime forum “Types of Causation in the Life Sciences” 🦋 https://t.co/YYsbnb4JXm

[AssemblingLife @Assembling_Life]

After a proper summer break, the activities of #AssemblingLife have just started again! Today we hosted a mini workshop with Rachel Ankeny and Robert Northcott on reasoning and explanation in biological and medical cases. @ankeny_rachel @ERC_Research
