Molecular Evolution

Challenging the assumption that evolution can provide whatever life needs, Dr. Axe has led a team of researchers in projects that quantify the limits of natural evolutionary processes experimentally, mathematically, and computationally. This paradigm-changing work has been published in numerous peer-reviewed science journals, including the Journal of Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Intelligent Design

The most significant conclusion to emerge from modern biology is that life is best explained as a product of intelligent design. Dr. Axe explains this in accessible terms in his book, Undeniable: How Biology Confirms Our Intuition That Life Is Designed, which makes that case that our innate sense that life is designed has proven correct.

Artificial Intelligence

Having used artificial intelligence in his research, and guided students in AI applications, Dr. Axe has an informed understanding of its power. He also has an informed understanding of its limitations. A firm believer in the unique powers of the mind and the immaterial substance of the mind, he believes it is crucially important for people to understand why machines will never be like us.

“Functional coherence makes accidental invention fantastically improbable and therefore physically impossible.”
