Myxomycete Slime Molds: The beginning of intelligence and its science Kawakami

Description: Description ``The great mysteries of the universe reside in slime mold, a beautiful jewel-like creature found in the forest. Slime mold is now at the forefront of intellectual exploration in the 21st century. Minakata Kumagusu once tried to discover the origin of life phenomena in slime molds. Modern biology is also trying to discover the origin of intelligence in slime molds. This book is a charming report from the forefront of exciting slime mold research. ” Recommended by Shinichi Nakazawa!! Although slime molds are single-celled organisms with no brain or nerves, they exhibit complex behavioral patterns in response to external stimuli. Its unusual behavior has puzzled scientists since the early days of computer science and artificial intelligence research. It attracted attention for its ability to provide an optimal solution to the ``single starting point shortest path problem''. How does this amazing creature transform into a myriad of colors and shapes? What kind of chemical reactions occur within the body and produce a variety of actions and decisions? There are still many mysteries left in this information processing system. This book was created through the production of the science documentary film "The Creeping Garden". It depicts how two British people deepened their research. In the process, based on the history of slime mold research and the research of scientists currently active on the front lines, We will also introduce initiatives such as computers, artificial intelligence, and wearable devices that utilize slime molds. At the end of the book, there is an introduction to Dr. Toshiyuki Nakagaki, who won two Ig Nobel Prizes for his research using slime molds. Also includes a conversation with Dr. Shinichi Kawakami, who is currently leading research on metamorphic bacteria in Japan.
