Representational redescription: the next challenge?

Drawing inspiration from developmental psychology, it has been suggested to build cognitive architectures that allow robots to progressively acquire abstract representations [4]. Humans don’t have a single optimal representation of the problems they solve. They can redescribe the information they have acquired in different formats [5]. It allows them to explore different representations and use...

The Next Therapeutic Challenge in HIV: Polypharmacy

With the adoption of combination antiretroviral therapy (ART), most HIV-infected individuals in care are on five or more medications and at risk of harm from polypharmacy, a risk that likely increases with number of medications, age, and physiologic frailty. Established harms of polypharmacy include decreased medication adherence and increased serious adverse drug events, including organ system...

Systems Biology: What's the Next Challenge?

Systems biology has described ‘‘small’’ systems in great detail and with great success, with the yeast galactose system and the eukaryotic cell cycle being two key examples. In my mind, the biggest challenge now is how do we phrase questions and design and interpret experiments that will illuminate how complexity is achieved in larger systems? As the physicist P.W. Anderson aptly wrote in 1972,...
