• Institute For Computationally Designed Organismsinstitute0.757
• Biological Naturalismframework0.727
  Searle and Seth's position that consciousness requires specific biological/autopoietic processes; explicitly rejected by CIMC on functionalist grounds
• Biological Computationalismconcept0.725
  Core theoretical framework: consciousness requires hybrid (discrete + continuous), scale-inseparable, metabolically embedded computation distinct from von Neumann architecture.
• Biosemioticsconcept0.714
  Framework treating meaning-making as intrinsic to living systems; supports view of memories as interpreted signs requiring creative interpretation.
• Tufts University, Department of Biologyinstitute0.713
  Academic institution housing Levin and the Allen Discovery Center.
• Biological Softwareconcept0.711
  The paper's characterization of living organisms' causal patterns as software — evolving, self-organizing, self-perpetuating, agentic — distinct from engineered code
• Morphological invariants of living engineering structureframework0.700
  Features that settle out when living processes guide structural design: positive interlocking of mass and space, big solid members, fugue-like pattern.
