Dr Michael Levin's pioneering research on bioelectricity, morphogenesis, and cognition is reshaping our understanding of how living systems self-organize and regenerate. He explores how cells and tissues communicate through bioelectrical signals, guiding the formation of complex structures without relying solely on genetic instructions.

He is a Distinguished Professor in Biology at Tufts University, working at the intersection of biology, computer science, and cognitive science.

This dialogue explores meanings of influence, value, transhumanism, minds, collective intelligence, and the philosophical and scientific implications of Dr. Michael Levin's work.
