The metaphysics of biology
Is materialism enough to explain life?
In this exclusive IAI Live event, developmental biologist and pioneer Michael Levin explores some of the deepest questions in biology, intelligence, and the nature of life itself. Levin’s groundbreaking research at Tufts University has revealed that cells, tissues, and even clusters of organisms can display remarkable capacities for problem-solving — blurring the traditional boundaries between body, brain, and mind. Join Michael Levin and our host for a live, thought-provoking conversation on the future of biology — where artificial intelligence meets the intelligence of life itself.
