Consider whether the remarkable coherence of birth and human development is better explained by chance or by intention.
In this episode of Secrets of the Human Body, join medical doctor Howard Glicksman and systems engineer Steve Laufmann as they investigate the intricate systems required to build a human baby. Human development requires extraordinary coordination, timing, and information from the very start. Cell differentiation and organ formation depend on plans and signals that are still poorly understood.
The placenta and fetal circulatory system demonstrate precise, just-in-time biological engineering. Many foundational problems of life must be solved before evolutionary mechanisms can operate.
A design-based framework offers an alternative way to interpret biological coherence and complexity.
