We don't have real aliens to sort of practice our um uh our theories on, but this is as close as we're going to get for a while because

we have a system that um that we developed that you can go to this website and basically it will just very simply translate papers in neuroscience into developmental biology papers. It's very easy. You just swap a few words and and and everything carries over. There are deep deep symmetries between cognition and morphagenesis which um I think Alan Turing for example recognized

here's one familiar example here we start with a caterpillar this is 00:07:12 a creature that lives in a in a largely two-dimensional world that crawls around on flat surfaces it chews leaves and it has a brain appropriate for that purpose it has to turn into a butterfly
- for: morphogenesis, morphogenesis - example - butterfly
- paraphrase
- the caterpillar is a soft-bodied creature that lives in a in a largely two-dimensional world that:
- crawls around on flat surfaces
- chews leaves and
- has a brain appropriate for that purpose
- it has to turn into a butterfly which is a hard-bodied creature that
- lives in a three-dimensional world
- has to fly it has to drink nectar
- needs a completely different brain suited to a hard-bodied organism
- in between what happens is during this process the brain is largely largely destroyed
- most of the connections are broken down
- most of the cells die and and
- the new brain is rebuilt during the lifetime of the organism
- this kind of change makes the the confusion of puberty seemed like child's play
- This is a single agent radically changing its brain and its body
- The amazing thing about it is that it has been shown that the memories that the caterpillar acquires are retained in the moth or butterfly
- Despite the disaggregation of the brain, some information is able to make it across to the butterfly or moth
- the caterpillar is a soft-bodied creature that lives in a in a largely two-dimensional world that:
-
less well known is that the same person was really 00:01:02 interested in morphogenesis

These findings show that WDR60 mutations can cause skeletal ciliopathies and suggest a role for WDR60 in ciliogenesis.
This is referenced in the Wikidata entry about WDR60 at https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q21124736&oldid=619612847#P682 , which states that WDR60 (Q21124736) is involved in the biological process (P682) of embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis (Q14886895).
