Cellular information processing and their implementations by chemical reactions
Instabilities of chemical reactions
Transport phenomena in non-equilibrium states
To keep in mind:
Explore every possible direction in looking at a given problem, never to be satisfied with 'standard answers', and always to continually question and probe the 'obvious'. It is this intellectual process that leads to real understanding and, occasionally, truly new physical insights.
Life is simple, it's just not easy.
