• Cancer as breakdown of multicellularityconcept0.841
  The view that cancer is a shrinking of the Self boundary due to gap junction closure, reverting cells to unicellular goals.
• Cancer as Defection from Multicellular Selfconcept0.794
  The model that cancer results from cells shrinking their computational boundaries (closing gap junctions) and reverting to unicellular goals.
• Cancer is a breakdown of the multiscale binding, leading cells to revert to unicellular goals.hypothesis0.748
  Gap junction closure makes cells selfish, shrink their cognitive boundary; restoring Vmem can normalize.
• Disruptions in cells' ability to join into a cohesive information-processing network via oncogenes and other factors correlate with cancer developmentfinding0.741
  Empirical support for the cancer-as-cognitive-defect / cognitive light cone shrinkage hypothesis
• Cancerconcept0.727
• Suppression of cancer phenotypes despite strong oncogenic mutations via forced bioelectrical connections among cells, overriding single-cell goals with morphogenetic ones.finding0.706
  Empirical demonstration that bioelectric network topology, not genetic state, determines whether cellular optimization occurs at single-cell (cancer) vs. organ level.

• Major evolutionary transitions—from prokaryotes to eukaryotes to multicellular life—are structure-preserving transformations at the scale of life-organization itself.claim0.701
