First-person experience cannot rescue causal structure theories from the unfolding argument

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Aaron Schurger

We recently put forward an argument, the Unfolding Argument (UA), that integrated information theory (IIT) and other causal structure theories are either already falsified or unfalsifiable, which provoked significant criticism. It seems that we and the cri ...

Roadmap on Machine learning in electronic structure

Michele Ceriotti, Andrea Grisafi, Max David Veit, Jigyasa Nigam

In recent years, we have been witnessing a paradigm shift in computational materials science. In fact, traditional methods, mostly developed in the second half of the XXth century, are being complemented, extended, and sometimes even completely replaced by ...

Combining hypothesis- and data-driven neuroscience modeling in FAIR workflows

Daniel Keller

Modeling in neuroscience occurs at the intersection of different points of view and approaches. Typically, hypothesis-driven modeling brings a question into focus so that a model is constructed to investigate a specific hypothesis about how the system work ...

Hallmarks of Cancer: New Dimensions

Douglas Hanahan

The hallmarks of cancer conceptualization is a heuristic tool for distilling the vast complexity of cancer phenotypes and genotypes into a provisional set of underl y-ing principles. As knowledge of cancer mechanisms has progressed, other facets of the dis ...
