Molecular Biology and Engineering Concepts
Biology is one of the most rapidly advancing sciences right now largely because of molecular biology and molecular biology was institutionalized when scientists imported engineering concepts into biology. Those who have read The Design Matrix know that many of these engineering concepts have permeated the field of molecular biology.
An Engineer in the Matrix
Before getting into some neat similarities between SETI and The Design Matrix, I’d like to take a break and direct your attention to a couple of interesting blog entries over at Telic Thoughts. When I wrote the DM, I intended to offer engineers a prominent seat at the table and I am quite pleased to see that one engineer, JJS P.Eng., has looked in on the fun.
