K_4_20 — Non-Neural Learning: Slime Molds, Plants, Bacterial Adaptation

Learning — modifying behavior based on experience — was long thought to require a nervous system. The last twenty years of basal-cognition research have empirically falsified this assumption. Single-celled slime molds (P

K_5_15 — Neural Fractals & the Edge of Chaos: Brain Criticality and Complexity

The brain is poised at a critical point between order and chaos — and its fractality is not an accident but a functional necessity. In 2003, John Beggs and Dietmar Plenz published one of neuroscience's landmark papers: t
