«Exploring New Forms of Reductionism in Biochemistry»15 DecThème : « Exploring New Forms of Reductionism in Biochemistry » Résumé In this talk, I will explore whether reductionism is possible in biochemistry and molecular biology by considering functional reductionism. Specifically, I will argue that biochemical compounds as vitamins can be reduced to chemical bases when these perform the appropriate behaviour.En savoir plus
