主讲内容:Polger and Shapiro (2016) claim that, unlike artifacts created by craftsmen, cases of multiple realization in naturally occurring systems are uncommon. Based on cases from systems biology, the speaker argues that cases of multiple realization in naturally occurring systems are not as uncommon as Polger and Shapiro initially thought. The cases from systems biology involve generalizable design principles called network motifs that recur in different organisms and species and perform specific functions. Two network motifs, i.e., negative autoregulation and feed-forward loops, are examined in detail, showing that network motifs with entirely different underlying causal structures can perform the same function of interest. The speaker also considers the scope problem of multiple realization, namely, are cases of MR in the biological world rare?
