Anthrobots formed from human tracheal cells aggregate on neuron-culture wounds and induce healing across the gap

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

• Gastruloids derived from embryonic stem cells arrive at a segmented target morphology despite very different ontogenic history (Veenvliet et al. 2020, van den Brink et al. 2020)finding0.714
  Shows that the segmentation goal can be reached via alternative developmental pathways, fitting James' definition of intelligence.
• Ophiocordyceps unilateralis forms a fungal network invading ant muscles but not the brain.finding0.712
  From Fredericksen et al. (2017), demonstrates how a parasite can control host behavior without neural takeover.
• Bioelectric networks formed by gap junctions scale cell-level homeostatic loops into organ-level anatomical homeostasis.hypothesis0.711
  Proposed mechanism for scaling of goal-directed activity from cells to tissues.
• Mouse neural crest cells grafted into chicken embryos successfully form teeth (Mitsiadis et al. 2003)finding0.710
  Neural crest collective navigates a foreign embryonic environment to achieve its morphogenetic goal.
• In Dictyostelium aggregation, acrasin concentration highest at the center of gravity of swimming cells creates a virtual center that, via chemotaxis, becomes a real physical entity intensifying aggregation further.finding0.708
  Biological finding demonstrating the mechanism of latent center intensification in slime mold morphogenesis
• If cellular collectives are learning agents, then reinforcement learning protocols should be able to train tissues to produce specific morphologies.hypothesis0.707
  Ongoing experimental test: using rewards and punishments to shape anatomical outcomes without micromanaging molecular pathways.
• Cells exhibit generalization in physiological space, recognizing novel stressors as members of familiar classes to deploy transcriptional solutions.hypothesis0.705
  Predicts that cells can categorize perturbations and mount appropriate, not just hardwired, responses.
• Single enlarged cells can form proper tubules through cytoskeletal bending alonefinding0.701
