The Paradox of the Organism (Revisited)
"The paradox of the organism is that it is not torn apart by its conflicting replicators but stays together and works as a purposeful entity, apparently on behalf of all of them. Not only is it not torn apart; it functions as such a convincingly unified whole that biologists in general have not seen that there is a paradox at all!" We invite you to join us for this 2-day conference devoted to the concept of organismality and the study of internal conflicts. We hope to attract biologists and philosophers with shared interests in these topics.
Abstract submission is now closed, but registration for attendance is open until October 15, 2022. |
