The Crossroad. Handcraft by Ernest

General interests

•                     : Behaviour of a system whose components interact intricately

•                     : The whole is greater than the sum of the parts

• Build mathematical models
  with computer simulations and analytical analysis,
  to understand the underlying mechanisms
  in the interface between biology, physics and mathematics.

Current interests

• Developing theory to describe the hierarchy of chemical structures

• Origin of life:

How can a self-replicating entity develop spontaneouslyfrom a chemical reaction system in which no reaction is self-replicating?
