About this listen

This is a ~57 minute talk titled "The Bioelectric Interface to the Collective Intelligence of Morphogenesis: development, regeneration, cancer, and beyond" which I gave at a UCSF seminar for an audience of graduate students and post-docs in Biophysics, Bioinformatics, and Chemical Biology. I covered the role of bioelectricity as cognitive glue underlying high-level adaptive plasticity in living tissue, recent progress in exploiting that interface, and new developments in research platforms for this field.

CHAPTERS:

(00:00) Framing bioelectricity's role

(09:28) Morphogenesis as goal-directed

(22:45) Bioelectric control of form

(35:10) Rewriting anatomical set points

(43:55) Cancer and aging bioelectricity

(49:36) AI, anthrobots, and outlook
