The body is a biological Ship of Theseus, remaining the 'same' object across decades of cellular turnover because of persistent bioelectric, biomechanical and biochemical pattern memories.

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

  Analogy for ongoing somatic and cognitive self-maintenance against degradation.
• Cells maintain internal representations of correct anatomical structure (target morphology) that causally constrain growth, regeneration, and repair.claim0.783
• The development and regenerative maintenance of a body is a kind of dynamic elaboration of a story about anatomical morphospace.claim0.762
  Analogy between biological morphogenesis and narrative.
• The Self is malleable and plastic, changing radically during an organism's lifetime.claim0.761
• We feel degrees of life in different organisms, even though technically they all have equal biological life.claim0.756
  Summarizes the observation of graded life within the category of living things.
• We hypothesize that consciousness may be at the heart of a universal biological learning algorithm — one that runs on self-organizing groups of communicating cells sharing evolutionary incentives — and that it creates rather than results from organized mental architecture.hypothesis0.755
  The Genesis Hypothesis as explicit predictive conjecture
• Human consciousness is tied to a biological learning algorithm — the simplest algorithm discoverable by evolutionary search to train a self-organizing biological substrate to become intelligent.claim0.755
  Core theoretical claim connecting consciousness to biological learning
• Memories persist through complete brain remodeling during metamorphosis by transferring and remapping onto newly-constructed neural tissue.hypothesis0.753
