  Swarm-semiotics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
We surely should not take it for granted that our different body parts love each other, or that they have any intentions as to maintaining us.
As the American biologist Leo Buss has shown, we should rather ask ourselves how it can be, that the cells and tissues of our body do in fact co-operate in creating us (Buss, 1987: 53).
Buss introduced the expression somatic ecology for the striking state of breakneck-harmony characterising healthy people.

 Innate immunity may be the key to organ rejection   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
He initially tried to use the sponges for his research, but found that they were too hard to grow in the lab.
A student at Yale first alerted Dr. Lakkis to the work of Dr. Buss, who had shown that hydractinia could be grown readily in the lab.
After what Dr. Buss describes as a long slog, the researchers have identified a piece of the hydractinia chromosome that contains the genes responsible for the innate immune response and should soon be able to identify all of the relevant genes.

 Yale Peabody Museum: Invertebrate Zoology: The Trichoplax Genome Project
Signorovitch, Rosengarten and Buss developed a series of new techniques to establish the animal in routine laboratory cultures, and clones from Grenada, Jamaica, Panama and Belize are now maintained continuously.
Working with Dellaporta and Maria Moreno, associate research scientist in the Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Buss’s group used these animals to generate both small and large insert genomic libraries, which are in turn the raw material from which the entire genome will be characterized.
Buss, Dellaporta and Marino have received additional funding to generate the full-length cDNA libraries necessary to produce gene chips for application of Trichoplax to problems of environmental genomics.

 YAM December 1993 - The Biospherics Institute
Says Buss: "We're looking at good bets for the future, areas that will be defining the conceptual agendas for decades to come.
Wagner, along with colleagues such as Buss, computer scientist Eric Mjolsness, and electrical engineer J. Rimas Vaisnys, is trying to reduce the processes that govern the workings of various parts of the natural world to a series of equations that, inside a powerful computer, can provide a reasonable facsimile of the real thing.
Eventually, all the centers will be developing courses and making contributions to undergraduate and graduate education, says Buss, whose institute also oversees undergraduate degree programs in organismal biology and studies in the environment.

 Multicellular organisms
Leo W. Buss (1987) in a pioneering monograph has explored the transition from unicellular to multicellular organisms in great detail, and has exemplified how the competition among cells for differential propagation by fission created obstacles to the emergence of multicellular organisms with cellular differentiation (i.e., division of labor).
With the evolution of cellular differentiation, kingdoms were made of some protist groups; yet we know virtually nothing as to why this transition was closed to all but a few taxa." (Buss, 1987, p.
In agreement with Turchin's definition of Metasystem Transition, Buss portrays the first stage of multicellularity without differentiation of function, except for accidents of location in the adhering mass.

Buss was thrown clear, and Leo was crushed under the car and died one week later in City Hospital in St.Louis.
Leo was very nice-looking and well-built, but was kind of a tough guy, as he always seemed to get into fights with the Italians on Dego Hill in St.Louis, which was near where he lived.
Leo tried to negotiate the turn anyhow - and in doing so, he was going too fast and the car overturned, throwing Buss clear, but pinning Leo underneath, with the car rolling several times (the car was about a 1929 Ford Roadster, with the rumble seat in the back).

Kunihiko Kaneko looks to the mathematics of chaos theory to help understand the origins of complexity in evolution.
In "Beyond Digital Naturalism", Walter Fontana, Guenter Wagner and Leo Buss argue that the test of artificial life is to solve conceptual problems of biology and that "there exists a logical deep structure of which carbon chemistry-based life is a manifestation"; they use lambda calculus to try and build a theory of organisation.
