   WELCOME TO THE LEVIN LAB

        Two conflicting tendencies can be seen throughout the biological world:
   individuality and collective behavior.  Natural selection operates on differences
   among individuals, rewarding those who perform better.  Nonetheless, even within
    this milieu, cooperation arises, and the repeated emergence of multicellularity
      is the most striking example.  The same tendencies are played out at higher
       levels, as individuals cooperate in groups, which compete with other such
     groups.  Most of our environmental and other challenges can be traced to such
    conflict, and to the unwillingness of individual agents to take account of the
    greater good.  We need to take multicellularity to yet a higher level, and find
      the collective [11]Kokoro that is the only hope for the preservation of the
                                        planet.
