REDUCTIONISM FAILS. You cannot derive the function of organisms entirely from their molecules, despite a long history of thinking that you could. Does biology generate order from molecular disorder? Perhaps not, suggests Denis Nobel. Life is a process not fully programmed at the molecular level, generating order from disorder. Stochasticity is a key feature of gene expression. Non-genetic heterogeneity of cells in development is more than noise.
