The essays below were not published by the New York Times because they were deemed too complex for an average NYTimes reader to understand. But what about you? Are you smarter? Find out:
- Eric Werner, (2018) “Genes, Networks and the Reality of Gender” DOI 10.13140/RG.2.2.16832.43522 (Abstract and PDF) Key Insight: Transgender phenomena may be real, while not necessarily in genes, they may be the result of meta-networks controlling the embryos development. If so transgender and other sexual dualities are very real and not imagined or merely the result of environmental impact.
- Eric Werner, (2018) “Catching Cancer” DOI 10.13140/RG.2.2.36650.52162 (Abstract and PDF) Key Insight: Under my network theory of cancer, viruses may cause many types of cancers. See the essay for details. However, the network theory of cancer also offers hope for a cure (See my Cancer Cure Protocol)
- Eric Werner, (2018) “Cancer’s Golden Thread –Why we still don’t have a cure for cancer”, DOI 10.13140/RG.2.2.13162.41927 (Abstract and PDF) Key Insight: I propose that to really cure cancer that we need a fundamental paradigm shift in how we understand, diagnose and treat cancer. On my view, cancer is not primarily caused by mutations in genes. The underlying drivers of cancers are networks that control the actions and dynamics of cells. I think a revolutionary rethinking needs to happen in our view of cancer. The problem is that scientists always try to understand a new theory or paradigm in terms of the concepts of the old paradigm. They then fail to understand the theory, because the concepts of the new theory cannot be expressed in terms of the old one.
- Eric Werner, (2018) “Minimal embryos and minimal cancers” DOI 10.13140/RG.2.2.23543.32167 (Abstract and PDF) Key Insight: Venter’s minimal cell will be generalized to multicellular systems. This will allow the study of minimal synthetic cancers – How cancers are generated and how to stop them.
