This lecture by Misha Gromov at the Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques (IHES) explores the mathematical interpretation of biological language and concepts. Delve into the mathematical and biological meanings of key concepts including biological information, descriptional complexity, biological structures and functions, purpose, encoded information in DNA and RNA, signal transmission through matter/energy processes, and how biological structures are built through networks of flows. Learn how the formalization of biological language can be applied to genetic engineering, including CRISPR analysis and phage assisted continuous evolution. The two-hour lecture represents the third part in a series examining the intersection of mathematics and biological structures.
