A genealogical map of the concept of habit
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-07-21)The notion of information processing has dominated the study of the mind for over six decades. However, before the advent of cognitivism, one of the most prominent theoretical ideas was that of Habit. This is a concept ... -
A Minimal Model of Metabolism-Based Chemotaxis
(Public Library of Science, 2010-12-02)Since the pioneering work by Julius Adler in the 1960's, bacterial chemotaxis has been predominantly studied as metabolism-independent. All available simulation models of bacterial chemotaxis endorse this assumption. Recent ... -
A unifying framework for mean-field theories of asymmetric kinetic Ising systems
(Nature, 2021-02-19)Kinetic Ising models are powerful tools for studying the non-equilibrium dynamics of complex systems. As their behavior is not tractable for large networks, many mean-field methods have been proposed for their analysis, ... -
Adaptation to criticality through organizational invariance in embodied agents
(Nature Publishing, 2018-05-16)Many biological and cognitive systems do not operate deep within one or other regime of activity. Instead, they are poised at critical points located at phase transitions in their parameter space. The pervasiveness of ... -
An enactive and dynamical systems theory account of dyadic relationships
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-05-30)Many social relationships are a locus of struggle and suffering, either at the individual or interactional level. In this paper we explore why this is the case and suggest a modeling approach for dyadic interactions and ... -
Analysis of the Evolution and Collaboration Networks of Citizen Science Scientific Publications
(Springer, 2021-01)The termcitizen sciencerefers to a broad set of practices developed in a growing number of areas of knowledge and characterized by the active citizen participation in some or several stages of the research process. ... -
Anticipation and modal power: Opening up and closing down the momentum of sociotechnical systems
(Sage, 2022-08-06)Within STS, there are three approaches to the creation and mobilization of futures: descriptive, normative, and interventive. Visions, expectations, and imaginaries are currently seen as anticipatory artifacts that close ... -
La biología sintética como desafío para comprender la autonomía de lo vivo
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2016)We here offer an alternative view of synthetic biology, quite distant from the engineering approaches that currently set the main research agenda of the field. Our analysis centres on those lines of work, both theoretical ... -
Critical integration in neural and cognitive systems: Beyond power-law scaling as the hallmark of soft assembly
(Elsevier, 2021-04)Inspired by models of self-organized criticality, a family of measures quantifies long-range correlations in neural and behavioral activity in the form of self-similar (e.g., power-law scaled) patterns across a range of ... -
Embodied Coordination and Psychotherapeutic Outcome: Beyond Direct Mappings
(Frontiers Media, 2018-06-23)... -
Emergent Chemical Behavior in Variable-Volume Protocells
(MDPI, 2015-01-13)Artificial protocellular compartments and lipid vesicles have been used as model systems to understand the origins and requirements for early cells, as well as to design encapsulated reactors for biotechnology. One prominent ... -
¿En qué sentido es relativista David Hume?
(Departamento de Filosofía, Universidad de Málaga, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, 2010)[ES]En este trabajo tratamos de esclarecer en qué sentido Hume es relativista con relación a la ética y a la estética. El sentimentalismo inherente a su ética y estética hace que, desde el punto de vista de algunos ... -
Enacting anticipatory heuristics: a tentative methodological proposal for steering responsible innovation
(Taylor and Francis / Routledge, 2023-01-24)Over the past decade, various normative frameworks that aim to promote more responsible governance of research and innovation in terms of better aligning with society's demands and expectations have emerged. Among the ... -

Exploring Criticality as a Generic Adaptive Mechanism
(Frontiers Media, 2018-10-02)The activity of many biological and cognitive systems is not poised deep within a specific regime of activity. Instead, they operate near points of critical behavior located at the boundary between different phases. Certain ... -
Glycemia Regulation: From Feedback Loops to Organizational Closure
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-18)Endocrinologists apply the idea of feedback loops to explain how hormones regulate certain bodily functions such as glucose metabolism. In particular, feedback loops focus on the maintenance of the plasma concentrations ... -
Integrated Information in the Thermodynamic Limit
(International Neural Network Society, 2019-06)The capacity to integrate information is a prominent feature of biological, neural, and cognitive processes. Integrated Information Theory (IIT) provides mathematical tools for quantifying the level of integration in a ... -
Interactive Models in Synthetic Biology: Exploring Biological and Cognitive Inter-Identities
(Frontiers Media, 2020-04-15)The aim of this article is to investigate the relevance and implications of synthetic models for the study of the interactive dimension of minimal life and cognition, by taking into consideration how the use of artificial ... -
Learning to perceive in the sensor motor approach: Piaget's theory of equilibration interpreted dynamically
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-07-30)Learning to perceive is faced with a classical paradox: if understanding is required for perception, how can we learn to perceive something new, something we do not yet understand? According to the sensorimotor approach, ... -
“Minimal metabolism”: A key concept to investigate the origins and nature of biological systems
(Wiley, 2021-10)The systems view on life and its emergence from complex chemistry has remarkably increased the scientific attention on metabolism in the last two decades. However, during this time there has not been much theoretical ...
