A model of gene regulatory networks using the mathematical model for recurrent neural nets from computer science. It’s such a great way to describe how a cell ‘knows’ things. every single celled organism or cell in a body contains within a complex information processing chemical network of gene-regulating proteins. One way to think of it is that every individual cell integrates information like a neural network. Good read, there are newer papers on this subject, but I’m not sure if there are better ones.
