I experienced collaborations between biology, engineering and social sciences with a playful attitude. For my PhD, I switched to information processing in biological systems, and have been fascinated by how the brain interprets sensory information ever since. My PhD in computational and neural systems was a formational time.

Because computational methods originated in the natural sciences, some disciplines, such as chemistry and physics, have lots of research software at their disposal. It also facilitates the internal transport of organelles and other structures present within the cell.

Already the steam-engine works our mines, impels our ships, excavates our ports and our rivers, forges iron, fashions wood, grinds grain, spins and weaves our cloths, transports the heaviest burdens, etc. He introduced the Boltzmann Transport Equation which allows one to compute at least certain non-equilibrium properties of gases.

Processes in nature—like, for example, the weather—can be thought of as corresponding to computations. Yes, we can do natural science to figure out some aspects of what’s going to happen. We’ll be able to say some things—though perhaps in ways that are closer to psychology or social science than to traditional exact science.
