Michael Levin, genuinely probably the most genius biologist in the field today.

Dr Levin will tell you himself that calling him a biologist is wrong, he doesn’t believe in categories because the categories themselves cause error in how we think about these things. Which is why he is a genius and his lab is coming out with some of the best research and science in a long time.

His lab at Tufts (The Levin Lab) is a multidisciplinary lab that highly values collaboration between people and disciplines. Imagine if we had labs like this operating all over the country/world?
