Discovery Institute physicist Brian Miller spoke at the recent Dallas Science and Faith Conference. His theme was “The amazing relevance of engineering in biology.”
Then, moderated by John West, he answered some very thoughtful questions from the audience. Miller notes the fruitful marriage of biology and engineering, as in, for example, the study of control systems: “What you find is parallel research: that biologists understand these systems, that engineers discover these systems independently, and when they work together, they’re looking at overlap. So what’s happening now is that engineers are learning from biology to do better engineering. If biology doesn’t isn’t designed, which is another way of saying “designed”, wouldn’t that be quite counter-intuitive?Enjoy the rest of the Q&A with Dr. Miller:
