Conceptual assessment in the biological sciences: a National Science Foundation-sponsored workshop.

abstract：:Fractal physiology demonstrated growing interest over the last decades among physiologists, neuroscientists, and clinicians. Many physiological systems coordinate themselves for reducing variability and maintain a steady state. When recorded over time, the output signal exhibits small fluctuations around a stable valu...
