    Perry Marshall spoke at the Society for Brain Mapping and Therapeutics 21st annual conference in Los Angeles, 16 March 2024. He describes how outdated textbook evolution is inhibiting research and keeping us stuck in the old, gene-centric paradigm, and how the Polyploid Giant Cancer Cell model, advocated at a recent conference at MD Anderson in Houston, is a far more elegant model for detecting and treating cancer at the very earliest stages.
  • Brothers Reunite: The Story Behind Evolution 2.0

It has redefined my life.People always ask how this turned out for Bryan. Odds are you have NOTheard his side of the story! You might be surprised how attentively he haswatched as this has unfolded. www.coffeehousetheology.comhttps://evo2.org/meeting-grendels-mother-in-the-spiritual-swamp/www.evo2.org/bryanBooks on Amazon"Understanding Living Systems" by Denis and Ray Noble"Evolution 2.0" by Perry Marshall"Master and his Emissary" by Iain McGilchrist
