How do the history and philosophical implications of evolutionary theory define the direction and superiority of evolution in modern biology?

H

The development of the theory of evolution from early speculation to Darwin’s theory of natural selection, modern biology seeks to redefine the direction and superiority of evolution through the diversity of genes and gene combinations. Evolution is an inherently irregular process, and understanding how adaptation and change occur in living things is deeply connected to our philosophical...

Was the universe designed by an omniscient God or is it one of an infinite number of parallel universes?

W

This essay addresses the debate over whether the sophistication of the universe is the design of an omniscient deity or whether it exists as one of an infinite number of possibilities according to parallel universe theory. It explores the possibility and implications of parallel universes, comparing scientific theories and religious perspectives, focusing on Hugh Everett’s multiverse theory...

The evolution of the networked human brought about by smartphones and wearable devices: what are the limits and future?

T

The development of computers and the Internet, starting in the 1990s, and the rise of smartphones and wearable devices have transformed human lifestyles into a networked form. However, this artificial evolution has its limits, and it is necessary to explore future evolutionary directions that overcome the physical distance between humans and machines.   In the 1990s, computers became...

Why is annual flu vaccination essential, and how can I prepare for virus mutations?

W

The rapid mutation of influenza viruses and the uncertainty of which strains are circulating is why annual flu vaccination is essential. Boosting your immunity with vaccines and treatments and practicing good personal hygiene are key to preventing the flu.   ‘Tis the season for flu vaccinations. We’ve been hearing a lot in the news lately about the potential for a major flu...

How does the autophagy mechanism play an important role in human aging and the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, and how does it contribute to the development of modern medicine?

H

Professor Rachan Oh, a Japanese professor who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2016, has made significant contributions to modern medicine through his research on the autophagy mechanism. Autophagy breaks down unnecessary substances in cells to help metabolize them, and it plays a key role in addressing Parkinson’s disease and other age-related issues. His research has...
