Bioelectrics and Genetic Modulation

Beyond the boundaries of established science an avalanche of exotic ideas compete for our attention. Experts tell us that these ideas should not be permitted to take up the time of working scientists, and for the most part they are surely correct. But what about the gems in the rubble pile? By what ground-rules might we bring extraordinary new possibilities to light? If you have a personal favorite theory, that is in someway related to the Electric Universe, this is where it can be posted.

Bioelectrics and Genetic Modulation

Unread post by JP Michael » Tue Nov 21, 2023 9:33 pm

In the mayerialist view of genetics, proteins coded for by DNA/RNA control an organism. But there is much more to the picture, because cells exchange bioelectrical information with one another so as to collectively instruct the whole what it is to become (e.g. an eye, lrg, face), and also when to stop.
Explained in Michael Levin's 20 minute TED talk:

Yes !
There are many interesting discussions with Michael Levin on You Tube.
He points out that DNA does not have any information for an organism's morphology (shape)
It all is to be found in the Bio-electric voltage patterns in the cells.
His work supports the FUNDAMENTAL nature of Bio-electricity.
The electric cell membranes came first in the beginning of LIFE.
I discuss this in another thread on Abiogenesis.
