A genealogical map of the concept of habit
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-07-21)The notion of information processing has dominated the study of the mind for over six decades. However, before the advent of cognitivism, one of the most prominent theoretical ideas was that of Habit. This is a concept ... -
A Minimal Model of Metabolism-Based Chemotaxis
(Public Library of Science, 2010-12-02)Since the pioneering work by Julius Adler in the 1960's, bacterial chemotaxis has been predominantly studied as metabolism-independent. All available simulation models of bacterial chemotaxis endorse this assumption. Recent ... -
A unifying framework for mean-field theories of asymmetric kinetic Ising systems
(Nature, 2021-02-19)Kinetic Ising models are powerful tools for studying the non-equilibrium dynamics of complex systems. As their behavior is not tractable for large networks, many mean-field methods have been proposed for their analysis, ... -
Adaptation to criticality through organizational invariance in embodied agents
(Nature Publishing, 2018-05-16)Many biological and cognitive systems do not operate deep within one or other regime of activity. Instead, they are poised at critical points located at phase transitions in their parameter space. The pervasiveness of ... -
Affective atmospheres and the enactive-ecological framework
(Taylor & Francis, 2023-06-28)The phenomenology of atmospheres is recently gaining attention in debates on situated affectivity. Atmospheres are defined as holistic affective qualities of situations that integrate disparate affective forces into an ... -
An enactive and dynamical systems theory account of dyadic relationships
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-05-30)Many social relationships are a locus of struggle and suffering, either at the individual or interactional level. In this paper we explore why this is the case and suggest a modeling approach for dyadic interactions and ... -
Analysis of the Evolution and Collaboration Networks of Citizen Science Scientific Publications
(Springer, 2021-01)The termcitizen sciencerefers to a broad set of practices developed in a growing number of areas of knowledge and characterized by the active citizen participation in some or several stages of the research process. ... -
Anticipation and modal power: Opening up and closing down the momentum of sociotechnical systems
(Sage, 2022-08-06)Within STS, there are three approaches to the creation and mobilization of futures: descriptive, normative, and interventive. Visions, expectations, and imaginaries are currently seen as anticipatory artifacts that close ... -
Autopoiesis, Autonomy, and Organizational Biology: Critical Remarks on “Life After Ashby”
(Cybernetics & Human Knowing, 2012)In this paper we criticize the "Ashbyan interpretation" of autopoietic theory by showing that Ashby's framework and the autopoietic one are based on distinct, often incompatible, assumptions and they aim at addressing ... -
Biological altruism, eusociality and the superorganism: a critical analysis of the role of biological altruism within eusociality research.
(2020-03-12)In this thesis I critically assess the role of the concept of biological altruism (BA) within eusociality research by assessing the following questions: 1) Is the concept of BA a correct description of the behaviour of the ... -
La biología sintética como desafío para comprender la autonomía de lo vivo
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2016)We here offer an alternative view of synthetic biology, quite distant from the engineering approaches that currently set the main research agenda of the field. Our analysis centres on those lines of work, both theoretical ... -
Caracterización del valor intrínseco antropogénico de la biodiversidad. El no-antropocentrismo y el ecocentrismo andino del Sumak Kawsay como forma de conservacioón de la naturaleza no-humana y la vida
(2018-11-09)Esta investigación argumenta y defiende que todos los seres vivos, organismos o individuos tienen valor intrínseco, porque poseen una vida, que es su máximo interés o finalidad en sí misma. Su historia evolutiva con base ... -
Complex emergence and the living organization: an epistemological framework for biology
(Springer, 2010-02-27)In this article an epistemological framework is proposed in order to integrate the emergentist thought with systemic studies on biological autonomy, which are focused on the role of organization. Particular attention will ... -

Critical integration in neural and cognitive systems: Beyond power-law scaling as the hallmark of soft assembly
(Elsevier, 2021-04)Inspired by models of self-organized criticality, a family of measures quantifies long-range correlations in neural and behavioral activity in the form of self-similar (e.g., power-law scaled) patterns across a range of ... -
