Is the tendency to maximise energy distribution an optimal collective activity for biological purposes? A proposal for a global principle of biological organization
Our purpose is to address the biological problem of finding foundations of the organization in the collective activity among cell networks in the nervous system, at the meso/macroscale, giving rise to cognition and consciousness. But in doing so, we encounter another problem related to the interpret...
