• Morphogenesis is the behavior of a collective intelligence of cells solving problems across multiple scales.claim0.898
  Levin's main interpretive reframing: rejects purely emergentist/mechanistic views of development in favor of treating morphogenesis as cybernetic, goal-directed problem-solving by cellular swarms.
• Morphogenesis by cell groups is a natural example of a collective intelligence problem.claim0.897
  Reframes developmental biology as a cognitive science.
• Morphogenesis is an instantiation of collective intelligence, exhibiting anatomical homeostasis and autonomous problem-solving in morphospace.claim0.889
  Reframes developmental biology as collective cognition.
• Morphogenesis is an example of collective intelligence and goal-directed activity.claim0.884
  Cells work together to build structures in a context-dependent manner, meeting James' test of 'fixed ends with varying means'.
• Morphogenesis as Collective Intelligenceconcept0.874
  The view that embryogenesis and regeneration are instances of collective problem-solving by cell groups navigating morphospace toward target morphologies.
• Morphogenesis and cognition are fundamentally linked as collective problem-solvingclaim0.869
• Morphogenesis is a result of collective activity where cells cooperate toward a specific, invariant target morphology, exhibiting goal-directedness.claim0.864
  Frames developmental biology as an instance of basal cognition.
• Morphogenesis can be viewed as the result of the behavior of swarm intelligence of cells.claim0.853
  Cells collectively solve anatomical problems, analogous to collective intelligence in social insects.
