An international team of researchers has developed a new theoretical framework that bridges physics and biology to provide a unified approach for understanding how complexity and evolution emerge in ...

Building blocks can be assembled much like lego to create molecules of life. Credit: Dr Anna Tanczos, Sci - Comm Studios., CC BY-SA Building blocks can be assembled much like lego to create molecules ...

For decades, scientists have relied on a popular idea referred to as cosmic inflation to explain how the universe began and why it looks the way it does today. This theory suggests the universe ...

Complexity theories indeed do apply to war, and Clausewitz’s theories were the first to grapple with them. War is nonlinear, but the parallels between war and complexity science, and between ...

Assembly theory bridges the gap between physics and biology in explaining how complex objects are identifiable as products of evolution and how reusability of parts allows novelty and identical ...

Selection in Assembly Space. (A) Pictorial representation of the assembly space represents the formation of combinatorial object space from building blocks and physical constraints. (B) Observed copy ...
