Phylogeny as the basis for the sub-fields of biosemiotics

Semiotica: Journal of the International Association for Semiotic Studies
Biosemiotics is the study of biological signs and communication. There is no consensus about how its sub-fields should be organized: a great chain of semiosis or a nested hierarchy or mutually exclusive branches?

The role of biosemiosis and semiotic scaffolding in the processes of developing intelligent behaviour

Zagadnienia Filozoficzne w Nauce, 2021
Biosemiotics deals with the processes of signs in all dimensions of nature. Semiosis is the primary form of intelligence. Intelligent behaviour becomes immediately understandable in this approach because semiosis combines causality with the triadic ...

Christian Bohr. Discoverer of Homotropic and Heterotopic Allostery

Acta Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue S734, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This essay recounts and revisits the scientific contributions of Christian Bohr, highlighting his pivotal role in discovering allostery about 120 years ago. Bohr's meticulous experimentation led to identifying two distinct forms of allostery: homotropic (single‐ligand) and heterotropic (multi‐ligand), the latter widely recognized as the Bohr ...
