The concept of information as viewed in theoretical physics through statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, and its implications and connections with evolutionary biology. An interesting reading:

How Life (and Death) Spring From Disorder (via WIRED -original story from Quanta Magazine)

Biological systems don’t defy physical laws, of course—but neither do they seem to be predicted by them. In contrast, they are goal-directed: survive and reproduce. We can say that they have a purpose—or what philosophers have traditionally called a teleology—that guides their behavior.

By the same token, physics now lets us predict, starting from the state of the universe a billionth of a second after the Big Bang, what it looks like today. But no one imagines that the appearance of the first primitive cells on Earth led predictably to the human race. Laws do not, it seems, dictate the course of evolution.

Researchers design a functioning artificial womb

Researchers have designed an artificial womb-like device that could drastically change the way we care for extremely premature babies. The device, which has been used successfully with lambs, mimics the environment of a real womb. It’s designed to allow critically preterm infants to continue developing as they normally would.

Wow

After presenting the oldest known proof of the Pythagorean Theorem from the Zhou Bi Suan Jing (Chinese math book from like 1000-600BC), Bhaskara (Hindu mathematician who presented the proof, but did not discover it) ended his explanation with “Behold”.

In other news, instead of a black square, my proofs will now end with Behold.
