Leader & only contractor of research grant from the Polish Committee of Scientific Research "Structural source of evolution regularities of regulative type ontogenesis (The research of tendencies of  adaptive changeability in the diverse complex networks of condition)" [Strukturalne źródła prawidłowości ewolucji ontogenezy typu regulacyjnego (Badanie prawidłowości zmienności adaptacyjnej w różnorodnych złożonych sieciach uwarunkowań)]. Grant has ended April 30, 2008. Now retired. Titles 1970 - MSc   High Energy Physics (Elementary Particles) Warsaw University Physics Department 1987 - PhD - doctor of technical science (interdisciplinary dissertation in fields of evolutionary biology, system theory, computer science – simulations: Statistical analysis of structural tendencies in complex systems vs. ontogeny. System Research Institute, Warsaw) [Statystyczne tendencje strukturalne w systemach wielkich a ontogeneza. (Doktorat-tekst oryginalny) Instytut Badań Systemowych PAN,Warszawa] Research Interests Statistical structural tendencies in adaptive evolution of complex, functioning, directed networks and their implications in biological evolution like e.g. old forgotten classic regularities in ontogeny evolution: Weismann’s ‘Terminal Additions’, Naef’s ‘Terminal Modifications’, Haeckel’s ‘Recapitulation of phylogeny in ontogeny’. Method: Modeling and computer simulation. Models in the range: Kauffman network, chaos, damage spreading, complexity, complex networks and their evoluton, especialy adaptive evolution and its statistical tendencies. The notion of information, purposeful information and code in the basis of the life description.
