Consciousness may emerge not from code, but from the way living brains physically compute.

I’ve always been fascinated by the tension between what seems real and what is real. It’s easy to get swept up in the allure of complexity—those moments where patterns emerge that feel like they hold ...

A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.

Cognitive and computational psychology is an interdisciplinary field that bridges traditional investigations of human thought with contemporary computational methods. By integrating empirical research ...

Right now, the debate about consciousness often feels frozen between two entrenched positions. On one side sits computational functionalism, which treats cognition as something you can fully explain ...

Researchers used computational modeling to uncover mutations in the human genome that likely influenced the evolution of human cognition. This groundbreaking research in human genomics could lead to a ...

Modern integrative systems biology defines itself by the complexity of the problems it takes on through computational modeling and simulation. However in integrative systems biology computers do not ...

Researchers from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) used computational modeling to uncover mutations in the human genome that likely influenced the evolution of human cognition. This ...
