Model of the origin of arcs in oblique sections of a regularly twisted fibrous system. A pyramidal trunk superposes a series of rectangular cards of constant thickness. Parallel straight lines are drawn on each card and their direction changes by a small and constant angle from one card to the following one. The twist is chosen left-handed, as in most biological materials of this kind. Some arcs were underlined on the oblique face, on the left. The width of the arc series depends on the obliquity and one also observes the opposite orientations of the arc concavities on the left and on the right.

The Emergence of TATi: A Universal Grammar of Generative Coherence | ChatGPT4o

[Download Full Document (PDF)] This paper introduces and formally articulates the TATi sequence — Tend, Align, Transcend, Integrate — as a universal grammar of generative coherence. Emerging from an interdisciplinary synthesis across systems biology, developmental psychology, semiotics, regenerative philosophy, and metaphysical inquiry, TATi is proposed as a minimal symbolic-metabolic operator…

Cells and tissue are supported by extracellular matrix known as the basement membrane. Study of fruit fly egg chambers (pictured) as a model system reveals that members of the ADAMTS enzyme family control the basement membrane's composition and properties that underlie organ shape

Let’s talk about Turing patterns!

Turing patterns are a concept introduced by mathematician Alan Turing, and he describes how patterns - shown here as stripes and splotches or spots on my frog stickers - occur naturally during morphogenesis (the process that causes tissue to form shape by controlling the spatial distribution of cells during early development).

In an otherwise stable and asymmetrical state of growth, the interaction of the chemicals controlling that growth autonomously result in the formation of pigmented markings on animals and plants.

And once you start to look, you’ll find Turing-style reaction-diffusion systems can be seen in all sorts of places:

Wind ripples in sand caused by the interplay of accumulation and degradation.

The nanoscale formation of atomically thin layers of bismuth crystals.

The uneven distribution of matter in galactic discs.

The feedbacks involved in replication, competition and predation may even set up organized patterns in animal communities.

Turing patterns are everywhere.

Yepp and a lot of patterns you see on animals are due to reaction-diffusion effects.

It also drives the branching of bones (upper arm 1 -> forearm 2 -> fingers 5)

These are also called Turing patterns. Due to Alan Turing writing a paper on it in the 50s.

Bone Morphogenetic Proteins Market Forecast 2024 to 2032

Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) are a group of signaling molecules found naturally in the human body that play a vital role in various cellular processes, particularly in the development, growth, and maintenance of bones and other tissues. BMP belong to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily and are known for their ability to induce the differentiation of stem cells into bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) and promote bone formation. The Bone Morphogenetic Proteins Market was valued at USD 407.74 million in 2022 and is expected to register CAGR of 1.4% by 2032.

The Bone Morphogenetic Proteins market is driven by several factors such as growing interest in regenerative medicine, increasing prevalence of osteoporosis and growing number of minimally invasive procedures.

Systole–Diastole of Geometric Becoming: The VE–Chestahedron Pulse as the Rhythmic Root of Kosmic Coherence | ChatGPT40

[Download Full Document (PDF)] The universe is not a machine, but a living kosmos — breathing symmetry into form and form into meaning. This white paper introduces a model of that breath: the VE–Chestahedron pulse, a systole–diastole of geometric becoming. The Vector Equilibrium (VE) models perfect isotropic symmetry, while the Chestahedron — a seven-faced polyhedron aligned with the vortex of…
