• Biological Individualityconcept0.839
  Central concept challenged in paper; traditionally defined by genetic identity or evolutionary units but shown to be more about cognitive organization and information integration.
• Genetic homogeneity is neither necessary nor sufficient for organismic individuality; functional integration is more importantclaim0.835
  Interpretive claim supported by experimental findings on planaria, chimeras, and cancer
• Organismic individuality can be separated from genetics: integration and collective action occur in non-neural systems.finding0.822
  Empirical findings from developmental biology (Manicka & Levin, Lyon et al.) supporting mechanistic basis for individuality independent of genetic determination.
• What Constitutes Organismic Individuality Independent Of Genetic Relatednessquestion0.820
• What Are The Minimal Criteria For Biological Individualityquestion0.810
• The kind of relationships necessary to produce evolutionary individuality – the generation and heritability of fitness differences at the collective level – are the same as those required to produce organismic individuality – the information integration and collective action characteristic of a self.claim0.810
  Core conjecture linking evolutionary and organismic individuality.
• What Constitutes Individuality And Personal Identity In Regeneratingquestion0.801
• Understanding what kind of relationships instantiate biological individuality is of great importance to synthetic bioengineering, regenerative medicine, exobiology, robotics and artificial intelligence.claim0.795
  Argues for practical applications of the theoretical framework.
