Primes¶
- Registry-Mediated Discovery
- Quorum sensing in microbiology: cells release chemical signals into a shared environment, and the chemical concentration field acts as a passive registry of population density, enabling density-dependent gene expression without any cell tracking individual neighbours.
This sourceCells read a shared chemical-concentration field as a passive registry of population density without tracking individual neighbours.

- Strategic Complementarity
- Cell biology and quorum sensing: bacteria upregulate gene expression only when enough peers have done the same, the molecular signal serving as the structural complement.
This sourceReviews bacterial quorum sensing, in which cells upregulate gene expression only once enough peers signal — a biological instance of complementarity with a coordination threshold.
