Scaling a Human Factor, Biological Universal to Ignite The Innovation Wave

 

 Biological Universal is an element that is shared by all biology, including humans.  Examples of a biological universal include cellular structure and the genetic code.

 

Based upon the research of Interogenesis Designs, an poorly identified and undervalued biological universal has been identified that applies to humans.   This biological universal is a human factor that contributes to all human functions.

 

Building upon principles of  astrobiology, origin of life, and the protocell model, the biological universal was identified from a scoping review conducted by Interogenesis Designs. 

  

These human factors principles and skills arising from  the biological universal can be woven into the fabric of society:

  1. Health and wellness
  2. Fitness and sports
  3. Innovation and creativity
  4. Research and discovery
  5. Productivity

 

The Foundation Scoping Review

 

A scoping review is a broad assessment of multiple domains of knowledge.   The result is insight into opportunities to:

  1. Learn between systems.
  2. Integrate separate systems for efficiency.
  3. Identify areas of deficient knowledge in a system.
  4. Identify structural concept gaps that impair the efficiency of some or all of the systems.
  5. Propose a super structure to improve the coherence, efficiency and effectiveness of all subsystems. This creates a new macro-coherence systems biology.

 

A scoping review conducted by Daniel Lappin of Interogenesis Designs concludes that the  model of the protocell, seen in the origin of life research,  offers a tangible structure and mechanism of action that establishes system integration across vast domains of human knowledge,

 

The central theme of the scoping review centered upon the historic progression, seen across the arts and humanities, and the sciences of:

  1. Models of human anatomy and physiology seen in the arts, humanities , and sciences.
  2. Anatomy and physiology principles of work, communication and measurement.
  3. Scaling laws and information theory from primordial to the modern human.
  4. The effect upon individual and population health and resilience in the face of stress, trauma, and illness; using a novel biological organization and signaling model.
  5. Application for innovation and discovery in health and medical arts and sciences.

Tangible and practical actions for the scoping review:

  1. A system and systems biology perspective to inform healthcare providers and academic researchers.
  2. Practical skills for academic and science researchers.  These research and inquiry skills are particularly valuable for researchers in the fields of  biology, health and medical sciences, human sciences such as psychology and mental health, and astrobiology, origin of life, and extraterrestrial sample analysis. 
  3. Practical skills designed for the average person to support a range of typical human activities: health and wellness, communication and relationship, innovation and creativity.

 

Healthcare, Biology, Anatomy & Physiology, Communication

 

This scholarship identifies a multi-century innovation wave centered around the anatomy and physiology of work, communication and measurement.  This is distinct from the trends in technology, information and communication seen over a similar time scale. The evolution of the understanding of human anatomy and physiology, and biology are parallel to the understanding of, and application of,  machine based technology, information and  communication devices. 

 

It is proposed that the biological, anatomy and physiology based innovation wave has lagged behind the technology innovation wave.   Plausibly, this is because human biology is more complex and mysterious than engineering technology.

 

An opportunity has been identified to clarify and elevate real, existing principles of human biology to contribute to societal benefits and economic impact.

  

The gap between the innovation wave in technology versus biology is seen in a gap in concepts at the root of academic disciplines.   This means that a specific category of real world events of human biology and anatomy and physiology are poorly described in academic concepts.

 

The conclusion and tactics of this research are designed to repair these gaps and system disorganization for societal benefit, specifically in healthcare.

The Protocell Model as a Systemic Solution

 

Fragmentation,  silos,  and lack of integration are common criticisms of academia   It is proposed that  incorporating the fundamental  principles  of the protocell help to resolve these challenges.  

 

Building upon the principles of  conservation, information theory,  and scaling laws, identified elements from the primordial protocell model offer insights and practical tools for  system integration and the processes of work, measurement and communication.  It is proposed that these principles can improve efficiency across scale and help to reduce the fragmentation seen in society and academia that arise from the fragmented role of human biology.

Stardust and Protocell Conservation and Scaling

 

The primordial  protocell model is proposed as a foundation for a broad array of subsequent principles within the transdisciplinary spectrum of physical, biological and social sciences, and the arts and humanities, including

 

It is proposed that all academic and intellectual pursuits can be distilled to these fundamental protocell properties.

 

As we are stardust,   we also arise from the protocell.

 

Therefore, understanding the protocell, and how it is represented in human anatomy and physiology is a principle and a skill that has broad implications for many human endeavors - for  the average person, the academic researcher, and business and industry endeavors.

 The Principle of Interogenesis

 

Interogenesis: Internal origin, Internal generation, Arising from within, Inner engine, Inner awareness, Birthing.

  

Interogenesis is an umbrella concept, an organizing framework,  a human factors methodology for principles that are scattered across academia, cultural,  and real world phenomena.  

 

Interogenesis consolidates these scattered principles into an innovative anatomy and physiology model with a concrete mechanism of action.  This structure and mechanism of action scales from micro to macro.

 

Interogenesis is a set of principles and skills built upon deep anatomy and physiology, and psychophysiology.    This structure and mechanism of action are found within structures and mechanisms deep within human physiology, with parallels to mechanisms of action found within the origin of life and primordial protocells.  It is also found in cellular and biological development.  It is seen in child development.

 

The principle of Interogenesis is proposed as a balancing concept to the principle of Interoception.

 

Interoception is a term used to describe a person’s capacity for internal awareness, internal sense felt. Typically, interoception describes the brain's awareness of internal experiences, such as hunger temperature, or muscle tension.

 

As a counterpoint, the principles of Interogenesis  describes a person's  capacity to:

 

  1. Access and cultivation all internal states of force, energy, signaling and information  on all layers of memory that descend to the traces of primordial information in the body. 
  2. On a higher perspective, interogenesis is a person’s ability to generate their experience.

  

Interogenesis: applications to physical function:

  1. Human performance and functional capacity across the life cycle.
  2. Generate psycho-physiology internal force to mobilize thriving and resilience in the face of typical stress, greater elements of resilience, vitality in the face of illness.

 

Interogenesis: applications to mental, emotional function.

  1. Inquiry, curiosity, innovation, research and discovery - especially in areas of high uncertainty, mystery, and unknown.  
  2. Creativity and expression
  3. Expand how we think about how we think.
  4. Enhance how we experience how we inquire, perceive, measure, analyze, investigate, analyze, and synthesize information.
  5. Enhance system thinking and system intelligence.
  6. Not only to ask new questions, but to ask questions differently.
  7. Information synthesis in conditions of data overload.

 

The research from Interogenesis Designs concludes that these physiology principles and practices are poorly identified and utilized  in adult behavior - ranging from education, to healthcare, to science research.

Interogenesis: Repair a Concept Gap in Basic Sciences

 

to Mobilize Natural Biological Force

 

The scoping review at the foundation of this scholarship identified a concept gap, a missing concept, located in an intellectual space  between physical and biological sciences.   It is proposed that some  human anatomy and physiology events in the real world are not adequately reflected in academic concepts, especially in healthcare.

 

Although common knowledge validates the phenomena associated with the 'concept gap, it is proposed that a more structured definition and organization elevates the understanding, value, and application of a category of normal forces with in the human body.

 

 

This novel description supports people to mobilize internal human factors and apply them across the human experiences; from wellness and thriving, to expression, creativity, and productivity.

 

This concept gap is illustrated in the following diagram, the Interogenesis Framework.
